Does anyone have a display flicker . It is very fast and happens about every minute. I am running an ANAN 7000dle and a GTX 1050 video card in the PC. I am using the latest software (2.9.0.8) and firmware (2.1.18). Anyone have this situation??? John K2YN

Hi Ramdor...the main display jumps every few minutes and affects the audio too. It pops abit when it flickers. John K2YN

John--did something change to make this happen? Are you saying it's a problem with 2.9.0.8? If you are, did you revert back to 2.9.0.6 to confirm the problem goes away when you do?

there are some gpu threading changes in test release versions of 2.9.0.8 that a few people are testing. This has fixed some flickering in meters that had been observed (not happening in the main spectrum area). This will be out for testing next week sometime when I have looked at the export/import db issue(s).

Are you using any containers/additional meters, if so remove them for now, but sound/display/etc pops are more than likely something else (network/etc/etc).

Ramdor..I am using no extra confusing systems. I am running without VAC and no extra meters. In fact I am not using the new meters available yet. I believe it was happening before on 2.9.0.6 Ramdor. I will back load an earlier version of Thetis and see if it happens. John K2YN

If it happens with 2.9.0.6 then it's not Thetis, it's something else.

Well Ramdor the problem is apparently mine. I tried 2.9.0.6 and had the problem. It's like the port is checking itself. Anyway... Thanks for your help Ramdor and thanks for the improvements you develop!!! John K2YN
