I wasn't able to reproduce it here when I tested with or without DF, so unfortunately it sounds like there may be another program on your machine that's causing this.

Please let me know if you have any other questions at all.

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-wallpaper-change-causing-full-screen-video-to-exit/?ID=887ab5db-ad01-46fd-a392-539c8cbbb48d#10 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 13:28:39 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-wallpaper-change-causing-full-screen-video-to-exit/?ID=887ab5db-ad01-46fd-a392-539c8cbbb48d#10 DisplayFusion Hi again..

The flickering issue that I was talking about has become somewhat clearer from an understanding point of view. But the issue remains.

I am using two monitors, one connected via HDMI and one via DVI, both with 1920*1080@60hz. The problem occurs in Google Chrome when a dropdown-menu is displayed, for example bookmarks, on the second monitor. However, the primary works fine. If I use either DisplayFusion or Nvidia settings to switch primary monitor, the flickering follows to the non primary monitor. Do you have any idea what might be causing this? I'm not sure if this is due to DisplayFusion or not, but the issue remains when I shut down DisplayFusion via taskbar icon which might indicate that DF is innocent in this matter.

Example:
Monitor 1 - Primary, HDMI, 1920*1080@60hz 32bit depth - No flickering
Monitor 2 - Secondary, DVI, 1920*1080@60hz 32bit depth - Flickering
Monitor 1 - Secondary, HDMI, 1920*1080@60hz 32bit depth - Flickering
Monitor 2 - Primary, DVI, 1920*1080@60hz 32bit depth - No flickering

EDIT: Latest DisplayFusion installed, Latest Nvidia-drivers installed and so on. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-wallpaper-change-causing-full-screen-video-to-exit/?ID=887ab5db-ad01-46fd-a392-539c8cbbb48d#9 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 22:29:17 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-wallpaper-change-causing-full-screen-video-to-exit/?ID=887ab5db-ad01-46fd-a392-539c8cbbb48d#9 DisplayFusion Great Keith, thanks!

I tried a 2hour movie via Plex earlier today and no interruptions, not even a single hiccup. That's some great progress right there.

If it doesn't bother, I'd suggest that this thread remains open if the flickering/blinking-issues reappear. If it doesn't, the thread will go further and further back because of inactivity.

Thanks for all your help thus far and have a great weekend! =) ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-wallpaper-change-causing-full-screen-video-to-exit/?ID=887ab5db-ad01-46fd-a392-539c8cbbb48d#8 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 19:18:10 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-wallpaper-change-causing-full-screen-video-to-exit/?ID=887ab5db-ad01-46fd-a392-539c8cbbb48d#8 DisplayFusion Ok, just keep me posted Martin. I've split this thread off so that we can keep the other thread for the issues that Ryan was having with the TitleBar Buttons

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-wallpaper-change-causing-full-screen-video-to-exit/?ID=887ab5db-ad01-46fd-a392-539c8cbbb48d#7 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 19:09:47 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-wallpaper-change-causing-full-screen-video-to-exit/?ID=887ab5db-ad01-46fd-a392-539c8cbbb48d#7 DisplayFusion Awesome, I also discovered an advanced setting within "Desktop Wallpaper" to pause switching during fullscreen. With that option enabled, I then ran a 1 hour episode via Plex WebGUI in Chrome and it didn't get minimized But we (or I) might try this a few more times before calling it solved. I'll get back to you in a couple of days..

The reason I asked about backup settings was to know If I could export the settings to let you read them and see if anything was odd but seconds later I discovered the pause-function which might have done the trick if we're lucky.

Regarding the blinking which this thread is mainly about, none of that have happened in the last week. Also, please excuse me Ryan for borrowing your thread with the software behaviours that I experienced and which I, at first, thought were related/similar to yours. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-wallpaper-change-causing-full-screen-video-to-exit/?ID=887ab5db-ad01-46fd-a392-539c8cbbb48d#6 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 18:14:15 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-wallpaper-change-causing-full-screen-video-to-exit/?ID=887ab5db-ad01-46fd-a392-539c8cbbb48d#6 DisplayFusion Yep! You can backup the Settings using the Backup Settings button on the Settings > Options tab.

You can also pause the wallpaper changes temporarily, by right-clicking the tray icon and navigating to Desktop Wallpaper Settings > Pause Current Images, to see if that makes any difference. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-wallpaper-change-causing-full-screen-video-to-exit/?ID=887ab5db-ad01-46fd-a392-539c8cbbb48d#5 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 17:59:58 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-wallpaper-change-causing-full-screen-video-to-exit/?ID=887ab5db-ad01-46fd-a392-539c8cbbb48d#5 DisplayFusion Correction, it might not be from youtube, but it happens when I play videos using Flash from Plex (an XBMC-clone that can play content via a browser), www.giantbomb.com and also from Windows Media Player Classic for example.

EDIT: Is it possible to export DisplayFusion-settings somehow? I use "Desktop Wallpaper" on a two-monitor configuration set to change every 15-minutes (different image on each monitor), this might have to do with the problems I experience. I haven't had the time to try with longer intervalls or function shut off though. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-wallpaper-change-causing-full-screen-video-to-exit/?ID=887ab5db-ad01-46fd-a392-539c8cbbb48d#4 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 17:57:05 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-wallpaper-change-causing-full-screen-video-to-exit/?ID=887ab5db-ad01-46fd-a392-539c8cbbb48d#4 DisplayFusion Interesting, I'm definitely not seeing that behaviour here, but I haven't let a video run that long. I'll try playing a 30 minute YouTube video and we'll see what happens ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-wallpaper-change-causing-full-screen-video-to-exit/?ID=887ab5db-ad01-46fd-a392-539c8cbbb48d#3 Wed, 16 Oct 2013 19:21:59 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-wallpaper-change-causing-full-screen-video-to-exit/?ID=887ab5db-ad01-46fd-a392-539c8cbbb48d#3 DisplayFusion Any news about this annoying issue?

I have noticed that Adobe Flash Player content (Youtube, Internet TV-broadcasting and so on) are all interrupted every now and then. This usually occur once every 15-30 minutes when running flash content in fullscreen. The interruption could be described as an "esc"-command because the video goes from fullscreen to normal playback window each time it happen. This is regardless of which browser I am using (Chrome, Chrome with built in Flash turned off, Firefox and Internet Explorer). When DisplayFusion is turned off, the problem disappears. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-wallpaper-change-causing-full-screen-video-to-exit/?ID=887ab5db-ad01-46fd-a392-539c8cbbb48d#2 Mon, 07 Oct 2013 19:22:33 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-wallpaper-change-causing-full-screen-video-to-exit/?ID=887ab5db-ad01-46fd-a392-539c8cbbb48d#2 DisplayFusion Thanks guys! We'll keep you posted as soon as we have more news. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-wallpaper-change-causing-full-screen-video-to-exit/?ID=887ab5db-ad01-46fd-a392-539c8cbbb48d Fri, 04 Oct 2013 19:01:43 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/random-wallpaper-change-causing-full-screen-video-to-exit/?ID=887ab5db-ad01-46fd-a392-539c8cbbb48d DisplayFusion Hi guys! I am experiencing the same issues! I am running Windows 7 Ultimate x64. I was watching a video on Giantbomb via Google Chrome when I recorded a logfile for troubleshooting purposes. The titlebar blinked every now and then during the entire video. I tried to turn off DisplayFusion and the blinking disapeared, started displayfusion again and there it was.

I have attached two files that you might be interested in, debuginfo.html and displayfusion.log in a combined .rar-file and a Dxdiag-report.

I wrote down a few time stamps where blinking occured, presented below in hours.minutes.seconds using local time zone (UTC+01:00 Stockholm):
20.47.20
20.48.20
20.48.43
20.48.48
20.49.16
