Blank screen during video playback

Hi all.

I am running MPC-BE v.1.5.3 with madvr 127.0.0.1 on a Windows 10 HTPC with an Nvidia RTX 2060. The video is fed via HDMI to a pre-pro and then to a Sony TV XBR85X850F. It is also fed via a DsplayPort - HDMI adapter straight to the Display. I have madvr setup to open full screen and to change the refresh rate of the TV to match the video file.

All is working as expected on the HDMI - Pre-pro - display leg. However, with the adapter - display leg, while the desktop of my HTPC is visible, when I play a video file (irrespective of the file type) with MPC-BE, I get audio but no video on the display. Just a blank screen. The DisplayPort-HDMI adapter doesn't seem to be the problem as the same video plays and is visible using PowerDVD and MS Media Player on the adapter-display leg, just not MPC-BE and MadVR.

I have reinstalled both MPC-BE and Madvr and imported the last previously known working settings, but no luck.

Appreciate any pointers.

********* edit: madvr v0.92.17 :-)

***Issue resolved with another active 4K DisplayPort - HDMI adapter. I tried 4 and two worked. Oddly, vlc worked with all 4 adapters.

Cheers,

Allan
