FileBot

My Filebot has always done this, so it isnt a new problem. I've used multiple editions of FB and that hasn't made a difference. Currently im on FB 4.8.5. I'm on Win10. I obviously don't know the problem, but I always suspected that it could have something to do with the fact that i use a dual monitor setup with monitors using two different resolutions (2560x1440p primary and 1920x1080p secondary) and also, on my primary I use windows scaling at 125% while I use a standard 100% on the secondary monitor.

Oh I suppose I should add, it doesn't LAUNCH like this. Everything is normal and starts to go wonky as my mouse cursor moves over the interface.

Graphics glitching all over? FileBot not working via remote desktop (RDP)? You may need to tell Java Swing to turn off Direct3D rendering:

Code: Select all

setx J2D_D3D false

Have you tried this yet?

I couldn't figure out where to try changing that setting because I didn't see anything in FB or Java regarding that setting so I pasted it into the RUN box of windows and that seems to have done the trick because I can't get FB to graphically glitch out right now even after trying to get it to do so for a few minutes so I guess I got it? Lolz.

I wasn't even really expecting to get this issue fixed when I posted about it! I bought a 1 year license but after the nice support I've gotten here in my posts, I plan to change that to a lifetime license when my current one expires. Good support goes a long ways in my books.
Thanks again!

Yep, setx J2D_D3D false is a command that sets the J2D_D3D environment variable to false. Windows has a GUI for that, but Win+R is quicker.
