Please open the file "home_directory/TheLightingController/LightShows/YourLightshow/ScreenControl/screencontrol.ini" and delete the line "Frm_Output = ..." and let us know.

I have the same problem as guillamebaudry. The Screen Control window launches with a video in timeline but is not visible as a separate window. I can hover over it on my task bar where it appears as a black screen (ie no video playing) but when I click on it, the window disappears back into my task bar. It was working for a while but I must have changed a setting in properties at some stage

I deleted the Frm_Output line from the home directory but it didnt fix the problem.

Im using Windows 10

Actually I appear to have resolved the issue. I deleted the full screencontrol.ini file from my home directory lightshow and copied over the ini file from the Default lightshow.

All works now.
