I received several reports about problems with Dual Output plugin working in fullscreen under Windows Vista+. Common symptoms - one of the output (left or right) become significantly delayed or completely frozen after switching to fullscreen.

I need clarify situation that this is NOT a bug in sView but in the video drivers! You may be surprised by the program do nothing but just resizes its windows. The root cause of problems is in buggy optimizations that video drivers tries to perform when them detect fullscreen 3D application.

Known buggy drivers:

- NVIDIA GeForce 275.33 WHQL - content of second window become completely frozen in fullscreen. Try to rollback to 260.99 or test newer versions.

- AMD Catalyst releases from 10.10 to 11.05 - content of second window become choppy in fullscreen. Problem seams to be fixed in Catalyst 11.06 release.

Minor update for sView 2009.

This update contains recent build of FFmpeg libraries with multi-threading decoding enabled. Now multi-core CPUs can improve video playback performance!
