Question regarding Nvidia driver issues

[PcTeknic]

There's no solution for the last two Nvidia drivers?.
PinballX doesn't display some videos after updating the graphics card, you can hear the sound, but the screen is black.
I know Tom is aware of this and has been trying to fix it, but I see that two months later, we're still having the same problem.
Reverting to the previous Nvidia driver might be a temporary solution, but not a permanent one.
Are there any other solutions? Is there any word on when this will be fixed?

I split this from the Feature Request thread. This is a query regarding a known issue and more appropriate to be asked and responded to within the General forum.

There may not be a fix possible for PinballX as the issue, as noted in several posts, is Nvidia-inflicted. Tom has attempted to address as much as he can to date. 

Such is the way with software development - sometimes the only fix is a workaround.

That said, no ETA for a fix at present.

Thank´s Draco
I think that while the problem stems from a change in Nvidia drivers, the frontend needs to adapt to that change.
HyperSpin and other frontends don't have this problem with the new Nvidia drivers.
It's a shame, because I've been using PinballX for over 10 years, I've lost count, but I suppose it's been more than 15 and I wouldn't want to have to switch now.

Hyperspin and other frontends do not necessarily have the same code base. Some may be easier to adapt than others. 

Patience.
