Title: Unwanted flickering/input disruption when entering/exiting games in Mame?
Post by: Bgoulette on February 20, 2017, 02:42:08 PM

Hey everyone,

I recently slapped Attract Mode onto a "new" (old) PC with the following specs:

Core 2 Duo
4 Gb RAM
GeForce 660

I'm running Mame 0.180, and it works as it should, but AM does this thing where when I launch a game, sometimes it'll flash a white screen or the desktop (I think this has been solved by switching to "Fill screen" instead of "Fullscreen"); but when I exit a game, I see the previous state of AM an there's no response to input for about 5 seconds -- then, a white/black flash, the desktop for a moment or two (including the AM console window), then back into AM and the screen has "caught up."

I'm running AM 2.2.1 on Windows 7 Ultimate. Any one else run into this? Solved it? Any advice? Thanks!

Get the latest nightly build of AM and if that does not help download my app Attract True Black
