Looks like videoForceFullscreen=1 is mostly fixed.
One new issue, when videoForceFullscreen=1 though.
1) click master video output area to bring up display
2) click it again to turn it off
3) click options to bring that up.
Options do not come up... It is hidden and since most of the VDJ is disabled now when bringing up dialogs with videoForceFullscreen=1, you are force to exit VDJ but the X button still works for that.
Also clicking in the master video area takes about 3 clicks to bring the video window back up after you have clicked it off when using videoForceFullscreen=1.
All of the above behaves correctly when using videoForceFullscreen=0

There are more problems with this when hitting the Maximize button in VDJ when using videoForceFullscreen=1...
The video display must be up and then hit maximize button until you get resizable VDJ UI.... It is not right...
There are a few more problems with this are easy to find.... You just need to test it...

If I click the middle diplay button to turn it of and want to bring it back up agian, nothing happens. Video is not getting back up anymore... Not that I use this, but I think it's a bug.. For the rest I am glad that most of the problems are gone !

You have to click it 3 times to get the video back and it is a bug as mentioned above. The video display part works ok now but VDJ user interface is easy to mess up when using videoForceFullscreen=1.

Tried that but nothing's happens, video stands still and main screen won't show any video anymore. The audio is this playing. After and vdj restart the video is useful and working again.

Yes strange.... There are other problems I did not mention but anyone that test it at all can find things easy. Maybe next go around there will be fewer problems to focus on :)

is this a forcefullscreen=1 only issue?
mine are all set to =0 and I don't have (and haven't had) any issues with them opening or closing.

Yes, just videoForceFullscreen=1 issues...
videoForceFullscreen=0 is window display mode. videoForceFullscreen=1 is hardware display mode and more efficient.

Turning on/off video with VideoForceFullScreen works from the first click for me.
Also opening the options after closing video works fine.
Is this also happening when no third party plugins are selected?

Nothing has to be running for me.... I bring up VDJ fresh no plugins, no transitions, etc.
1) - click master video output to turn display on
2) - click master video output to turn display off - normally VDJ user interface blinks on/off
3) - click options - does not come up and user interface has been disabled but X button still works
Happens almost every time but on some rare occasion it does not happen
If you bring up options first before clicking the master video output then you get different behavior and appears to work so don't do this... Do nothing except the above 3 steps. Also if you change the videoForceFullscreen setting, but sure to shut VDJ down and restart it after change.
When I was testing this again I got it to completely lock up and had to use task manager to shut down... Seems when you throw a plugin into the mix (was using slideshow) you can get it to where not even the X button works but I don't have exact steps for this..
There are a number of other things that I can also get to happen but too much to explain... focus on the above 3 steps first because that is straight forward. I don't know how widespread it might be... but occurs on the 2 machines I have here.
- both Windows 7
- one has ATI Radeon HD 5450
- one has ATI MOBILITY Radeon Xpress 200
PS: On the machine with ATI MOBILITY, I had 8.2 b3291 and tested that... It had the same problem... Then updated that machine to b3311 and had same problem

@ Adion, tested again but with the same result. Once I click on the middle videoscreen to toggle on/off, after off I can get it on again. After a restart of VDJ is shows again. No third party plugin selected.

Hi guys, how are we getting on with b3324 in relation to the problems we've been having (above)
In my testing, I'm not seeing the video problem appear.. or if its still there its not happening almost as quick as before :)

With videoForceFullscreen=0, I can get the VDJ user interface to go black and it stays black and disabled. The VDJ UI will no longer draw itself. Involves ctrl-atl-del and a few other things and not as easy to do but still can do it consistently. Video and audio are still playing fine.

You should probably be using Direct3D9Ex for your skin device. More friendly when using full screen mode. Currently you have all kinds of weird behavior which even if it worked would not be good.
I have been using Direct3D9Ex for years now. Used in TellyVisuals for it's layout tab just because of issues with full screen mode.
A couple notes about Direct3D9Ex.
o - anything managed is gone. Reason you would not want to use Direct3D9Ex for video because it would break plugins that depended on managed things. Use D3DUSAGE_DYNAMIC and D3DPOOL_DEFAULT for creating textures instead of using D3DPOOL_MANAGED.
o - use Direct3DCreate9Ex and CreateDeviceEx instead of Direct3DCreate and CreateDevice.
o - changes to get the image for skin preview. This needs improvement anyway and can also cause jitter.
Most everything else can be used the same way.
To detect if you have Direct3D9Ex use LoadLibrary on d3d9.dll and check GetProcAddress (hDirect3DLib,"Direct3DCreate9Ex"). Set a flag depending.
Direct3D9Ex is available from Vista on up. If you do not have Direct3D9Ex (XP only) then don't allow hardware full screen mode.
