I have downloaded VJ8 and a couple of new skins Blacksheep/Greysheep. WHen loading video/MP3 or plugins the screen dims making it difficult to see some parts of the graphics. It will sometime "freeze" audio is still playing however all functions do not work. I then have to exit VDJ8 then come back in again. This is real annoying ! I have checked Graphic card Updates (up to date) NIVIDA GT, Never had this problem in VDJ7 anybody have any ideas ? Thank you.

build 1855?? (you can check this pressing config and looking on the window banner)
Ive reported this behavior in the regression bugs forum, but are you using milkdrop8 when this happens for you? try re-downloading milkdrop8, re-install, and see if it prompts you for any DirectX 9 updates too.

I have a cunning plan.....
When this screen dimming occurs, can you take a screen grab?
A - it'd be useful to see what's happening, and to have a comparison between your normal screen image and the dimmed one.
B - it could be that the grabbed image is not dimmed but looks normal, narrowing down the possible causes.

A screen grab would be better, for the reasons mentioned.

Could you try setting skinFPS in options to 31 instead of 30?
