My setup is that I only have the taskbar/start menu on my playfield too. Had issues in the past with directb2sserver not showing over my backglass. But if this happend recently, please provide the version where it worked and the version where it stopped working including log and ini files, so Tom can do a better search for it

Do you have the correct installer from this side? The installer is stand alone and should not download anything else (as far as I know)

I only have a 2 display setup with a real DMD, so I don't know enough about this. But if I check your previous INI file, the size and location of your playfield, DMD and or backglass doesn't match. Not sure if @Tom Speirscalculates with these values the FFMpeg position, but maybe you can give that a shot and set the correct numbers in it

Yes. Just want to test it for you. You got it with all the systems the behaviour?

never used it, but according to the manual chapter 5.6 , you can see them in the game list :

Are you able to post your wheel directory (or put it somewhere, so we can download it) So I can do a test on a 2gb, 4gb, 8gb and 16 gb pc.

Never seen this on my cab, and alsso running around 800 tables for vpx. The only thing I see in your xml is that your are not consistent with naming convention. For description i would prefer 《tablename》 (《Manufacture 》 《year》) I also see that you donthave manufacturer and year set for some tables (like AC-DC Premium) Not sure if this causing any issue, but a good naming convention and standardized setup is always good to have. Btw.. what naming convention do you use for your wheels ?

No. I don't think it is worth it. The only thing that makes it cool, is the kinect 2.0 and shows a 3d experience. But the graphics and physics are not comparable with vpx or fx3

Although it is the same files, I have Arcooda pinball setup as system. (Pinball Arcade , unlocked cabinet and changed some files that it shows the arcooda interface).

What was the solution ? That could help others too

And if you recreate the videos, do you see any videos ? Normally pbx will show his own dmd video if nothing is found. So looks like the dmd is not displayed correctly, or didn't initialized correctly (but according to the log, it initialized 3 screens)

According to the log, i You try to create new video files, but ffmpeg.exe is not in your pinballx directory

Good catch @scutters

If hidedmd is set to false, it will show the dmd from pbx in your game table. Set it to true and it hides during game play

Thanks for the wheels Joyrider! I indeed uploaded 4k flying table videos and backglass videos (no grill) Didn't have time to create (real) dmd videos yet

Is hide dmd checked in game manager ?

Pretty hard to say if you give not much info. The exit button you define in pinballx, should stop the ponball fx3 process. Can you attach log and ini file ? And it is not the same as in the next post:

If you installed autohotkey on the machine, just right click on the .ahk file and select "compile script" That should create a new exe file

It's indeed different, but I like it! Maybe this looks great at all my flashing leds in my cab (as a wise man told me...)

Yes. I thought that Tom mentioned lately that pbx should not run as admin to get all working, but then you need to give dmdext.exe run with highest privileges ( I run my pinballx also as admin and removed the uac popups) But good it is all sorted out ! Did you retract/removed your question on github for Freezy?

I run dmdext.exe as admin. I noticed that sometimes it could not see the fx3 process

You are using a pretty old version of pinballx. Please upgrade first and attach new logfiles.

Thanks. Not sure for @scutters, but even the simple gifs take me just more than a weekend to get all the frames coloured. And scutters did the dark/light overlays for me. I still prefer the loading videos with scutters plugin

I have added playfield (4k flying over) and backglass videos on ftp. Still busy with the (real)dmd videos.

Wow. Those overlays are pretty awesome @scutters ! Thanks for converting my PNG's to these overloading GIFS.
