error with multiple monitors / "primary monitor only"

[tremu]

With multiple monitors and "affect primary monitor only" checked, opening CSGO adjusts the vibrancy just fine. However, if I alt-tab out and back into the game, the wrong monitor's vibrancy is adjusted, and vibrancegui gives the error "Changing the resolution failed: DispChangeBadmode"

The error message "Changing the resolution failed: DispChangeBadmode" should only occur when you use the option "Change resolution when ingame".

Do you have a NVIDIA or AMD GPU?

[tremu]

Nvidia GPU, "Change resolution when ingame" is unchecked. If it helps, I have 3 monitors, play CSGO on the primary monitor. All 3 are 1920x1080, as well as my ingame resolution.

edit: it's only after the second alt-tab. As in: alt-tab out and back into the game, everything works fine. Alt-tab out and back into the game for a second time, and the wrong monitor's vibrancy is adjusted

Are you sure all of your monitors can display the resolution (i.e. the hz)?
Like you can have 144 hz on main monitor but the other two dont support 144hz and then it might fail..

Have the same problem as described here. My primary monitor is 144hz, the secondary however does support up to 60hz max.

One could say I'm experiencing that bug too.

I'll work on a fix

[juv]

Can you try the attached version?
I don't have two monitors at hand now but I've tried to fix it nonetheless.
Lmk if this works... Otherwise I'll need more information on how to reproduce this issue.

vibranceGUI-2.3.0.4.zip

Note that the easiest way to stop these error messages to pop up is to kill the entire vibranceGUI process in Task Manager.

I tried the attached version for 3 days now and as far, as I can tell, the problem seems to be resolved!

[tremu]

I'm still getting the same error message (lots of them), but the actual problem is solved: upon alt-tabbing, only the primary monitor's vibrancy is adjusted. Thank you!

[K0bin]

Yup, didn't fix it.

[Akandesh]

yep, get this often as well. atleast remove the damn messagebox, I get tabbed down from it.

[juv]

Try this version and let me know if it works... Thanks
vibranceGUI-2.3.0.6.zip

Note that I tried to fix the bug entirely, I did not remove the MessageBox. It's still working fine for my setup; never experienced the error you guys are facing. I have added a check that should prevent the resolution from being changed when it is not supported by the device (your monitor)

[Akandesh]

Alright I'll try. Maybe it would be nicer if you changed it to a traytip aka ballon tooltip since then we won't get tabbed out and the message still goes through.

@juvlarN @Akandesh I just ran into the very same problem a minute ago (144hz monitor + game runs at 800x600 and a 1080p 60hz secondary monitor) and this version fixes it.
