DMD Video is Missing on DMD Monitor in Overview

[getthat]

Hi all,

simple Problem:

3 Screen Setup. The Pinballx Table Overview don´t Show the DMD on my dmdmontior. It is a black field instead the dmd Video.

The DMD Video is correctly installed via the Gamemanger. If I start the table, the Pimmamedmd was shown corrrectly.

Any Ideas?

Hi, Welcome to the Forums! First idea, please provide us with copies of your pinballx.ini and log.txt (Click here for additional information on how to find these files and others that may be required). Likely you do not have something properly enabled, but we can't be sure without copies of these files. Thanks!

The first thing I will recommend is downloading and installing the latest version 1.98. You are at 1.95 and there have been some significant fixes applied since your version. You may need to submit a new log.txt file if the issue persists after upgrading.

Here they are.... unfortunately same problem with lastest Version.

nobody can help?

[Draco1962]

I am sure someone will jump in that has DMD running. I don't so would not know exactly where to look myself (just now getting around to tinkering with PinballX a bit).

[getthat]

I guess, pinballx dont find / read the dmd files.

I take a look into the media Folder from VisualPinball in the pinballx root. All DMD Files for the tables are still there. I have donwload the realdmd and nonreal dmd file for all my tables and only two of them shown the nonreal DMD Image.
