No video (fully blurred) since Upgrade to Kodi 16.0 - monaface - 2016-11-11
Hi all. Long time ago, when Kodi 16.0 was released, I upgraded Kodi, but when playing videos, audio and subtitles are all OK, but video is fully blurred (all screen with same color, and color change as video plays). When I saw this, I rollback to 15.2 and all was Ok once again, so I wait to next version (16.1 and 17 beta 5) but the problem continues.
I will really appreciate your help.
This only happens to me on an old Sony Vaio Media Center Station VGX-TP1, running Windows 10. Other PCs at home works fine with new Kodi versions.
Best regards.

Not really helpful but here is the thing:
Your Sony vaio uses an old core 2 duo and his integrated intel graphic part
Since v16, windows kodi needs proper Dx11 API support in graphic driver, something that this old intel graphic probably does not have
If I made no mistake, I only see 2 solutions:
- stick with kodi 15.2
- bought new hardware to run kodi
Your last chance could be to force kodi to use software rendering in settings (but not sure it'll work)
