So I'm just getting back into building my own Kodi from source, after not having done it since around the early version 15 days - and i seem to have some graphical issues;
The build process completed successfully, it installs fine... but then i seem to have some graphical bugs - mainly no cursor icon (i know the mouse works, cause if i use the scroll wheel the text in the center changes).
Additionally as you can see - there's no indication of what menu option you're currently on... so basically some graphical things are missing.
Im building Kodi 18.6, i have Visual Studio 2017 Community (with all requirements), Git, CMake, Java & Nullsoft installed - and everything is in the system path.
My Machine: Ryzen 5 2600, 16GB RAM, Cosair Force MP510 NVMe SSD, Radeon RX 570 4GB GPU (With Radeon Drivers installed), Windows 10 Pro 64bit 'N Edition'.
As i wasn't sure if this could possibly be a DirectX issue, i installed the June 2010 DirectX SDK (even though i understand this is now built into the Windows SDK) - i only installed this, as my first build had this same issue, so then i installed the old DX SDK, but after redoing the entire build from scratch (including cloning the source again)... ive still got the same graphical issues.
I will admit, the Win 10 'N Edition' has created a few headaches... like i wanted to play AoE which uses the XBox services which weren't installed, so i had to powerscript those... so im left wondering if possibly N Edition left something out of my version which i need for building Kodi?
thanks for any suggestions.
