Projector display "turns off" briefly

HenneyB

Thanks for the great app! Been using for a long time and it keeps getting better.

But I am now having a problem where the display for the lyrics will occasionally seemingly turn off. What happens is the projector goes to a point where it shows the input number and goes blank for a second. I actually split the output, and the other screen more just flickers. I tried replacing the splitter with no luck. It seems to be the software. It does seem to do it more when switching from a Powerpoint to a Songs slide. Have you heard of this at all? Or have any thoughts?

Running v3.1.0 RC4 on Win11. Seems like been doing a while, not sure what is going on.

Remember that when OpenLP runs a presentation (PowerPoint, LibreOffice Impress, Keynote), it literally drives that application remotely. OpenLP is actually no longer in control of the display. What happens is that OpenLP removes its display screen, and then starts the presentation software. This may explain your "flickers". There is no way around this.
