Video Feeds broken?

My video feeds have stopped working :(

All of my source and viewer windows are still there but nothing is being fed through.

I play Eve - you can see here the source windows on the left with my dxNothing on the right...

but no video is feeding through...

I've not 'boxed Eve since Wednesday [and I think we've had a small Eve patch since then, so I guess CCP might have broken something - scratch that, was round a mate's house yesterday and his Eve video feeds were working fine]
I've not changed anything else on my PC or with my ISBoxer setup during that time.
I did notice that ISBoxer patched this morning when I booted up - is this something that broke or is something at my end?

Re: Video Feeds broken?

Did you ensure that Aero is still enabled in Windows? Unless all of your Video FX Sources suddenly got deleted so your Viewers have nothing to look at, my very first thought and recommendation is to double- and triple-check Aero. You can easily check it by holding Windows, and pressing Tab (don't let go of Windows) and you should get a live view of each window. Or hover over icons in your Windows taskbar and you should get the live thumbnail, etc.

And fixed!

I had completely forgotten that I disabled aero the other day - I actually loathe the aero look of Win7 and had to spend most of Wed/Thurs doing 'real work' on the PC during which time it bugged me enough to switch to classic windows!
Naturally, I didn't envisage that having any affect on my multiboxing and had completely forgotten that I changed it until you replied.
Switched it back on and all is well again.

Thanks, lax, for your usual amazing support :)

No problem, glad it was something so simple. :)
