We use DisplayFusion to run digital signage at our venue on Peerless AV monitors. We have two monitors looping static signs and one playing a video in VLC. Our new monitors do not have a built in timer, which is what we used previously.

We'd like to have Displayfusion sleep/wake those external monitors on a timer. Say sleep at 9pm and wake at 8am with our operational hours. I've looked at the fade displays option, but it seems to lack a timer, and the VLC video seems to break this anyway. With the video off, fade darkens the monitors appropriately, but with the video playing the displays look like they're having a seizure.

Thanks!

Pardon my ignorance, but when using this script, windows scheduler wants to make "C:\Program" the task and everything else an argument. I'm a noob when it comes to task scheduler..



Still getting the flicker when I adjust this setting

Thanks for the schedule help. Attached is the debug file you asked about. Manually toggled the monitor fading at 3:02 and 3:05, both recreated the spastic flicker effect.

Here's the video. Basically, as soon as I toggle the fading, it starts to go crazy. This continues until I toggle the fading back off.

The connected screens for digital signage behave the same way. I've tried closing other programs and the only thing that allows the fade to work properly is closing VLC.
