Mostly cloudy weather has weird horizontal and vertical line

Post by Bee »

I'm guessing this is a bug: when the weather at night is mostly cloudy the moving clouds show strange, dark horizontal and vertical lines (almost a geometrical pattern), and the lines flicker. Don't know whether anybody else has noticed this. I'm on Win 7 64x, and it occurs on both seaside and city.

Dear Bee, this is a Flash Player defect (YoWindow displays the picture with Flash).
The defect is visible on some video cards.
I'm also seeing this problem on my notebook.
I wish I knew how to fix this.
Get YoWindow weather app for your phone or tablet.

Thanks a lot for your reply, Par, at least now I know I'm not the only one. Maybe there will be a fix sometime...

I recently updated my Flash Player, and I'm almost sure that I didn't notice those lines before that.

Yeah, I agree, this must be a side effect of new Flash Player.

Hi "Bee",
I'm also using Win 7/64 bit version without any problems with Yowindow. It is very important to install the latest 64 bit-version of the Adobe Flash Player!

Thank you for the tip, Werner, I'm using Adobe Flash Player 10.2.153.1. It should support 64 bit. Or is there some kind of special version of the Flash Player? If so, could you provide a link?

The version you use is the latest one, so this couln't be the problem. What about the driver for your video card? You have checked for the latest?

Thanks for the quick reply. Yes, I just updated my NVIDIA driver (NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M ver. 267.76). My system is pretty fresh so I have no idea what the problem could be anymore.
