Some of the best things are small checkboxes and such like you overlook

I've noticed.

Last night when I tried to stream a youtube video my screen went all black but I could still hear the audio. I had to tab out via windows key and force kodi off. I went back into kodi and played it with the DVDPlayer and everything worked. Today now I went to play an mkv bluray rip and the screen was black and could still hear the audio. I just started hitting buttons in madvr and it came back but now the res is all messed up. I can only see the upper left corner of the movie and it fills my whole screen. Lol

Glad to help on the rules thing.

As far as the black screen is concerned, some questions:

1) Are you adjusting refresh rate through madVR, Kodi or not at all? Meaning, do you switch to a 24Hz mode for film content or not. And if yes in what way? Settings/Video/Playback/Adjust display refresh rate.
2) Are you using Exclusive mode in madVR? Settings/Video/DSPlayer/Use in fullscreen (exclusive mode)
3) Are you using fullscreen for Kodi or fullscreen window? Settings/System/Video output/Use fullscreen window

1) Adjusting refresh rate through madVR and under display I put in the refresh rates that my monitor accepts.
2) Yes I am using exclusive mode and I set Kodi setting to force stop full screen.
3) I have Kodi set to Full screen.

Once I got the image to display, I fixed the image being messed up because I had to reset the res in Kodi back to 1920 x 1080p. When I force closed it the other day not only did my monitor not change back to it's max res of 2560 x 1440p but Kodi switched to 2560 x 1440p. I changed Kodi back to 1920x1080 and the image started to display correctly.
