Windows GUI messing up.

Post by dmitche3 »

First, long time PS3 Server user (modified), new to UMS.

The problem that I'm having is the repainting of the main window in Windows 10. I've made a short video showing that when the mouse moves around the application
that the drawing is incorrect but there not allowed to be uploaded. Nothing corrects the painting but stopping the program.

Funny thing is that I had the same problem with PS3 Media Server, of which my copy is about 6 years old and personally modified. But I have never had any issues with
other applications. Under PS3 it only happened after hours of running. With UMS it happens almost immediately.

I have the latest drivers for my 1050TI from Geforce Exp. and all Windows is up-to-date unfortunately( 2004 release) on an AMD 3600x, 16GB of memory.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Ah, work around to this was to set the window full screen. No drawing issues then. :)

Strange. After doing this and going back to a resizable window the issue clears up.
Addendum: The issue isn't fixed by this, just postponed. 30 minutes later I brought up the screen and played with it some more just
to have 'sections' of the window paint over others. Maximizing the window didn't fix the problem this time, only restarting the app.

The improper repainting is only when doing a fly-over (labels/fields when hovered over have help text), or any control.

Addendum 2: Running now in Windows 7 compatablity mode at present. No issues yet but it takes time to occur.
