Steve_Karl I'll be this is it:
I think you might be looking at the "Big Time" window and thinking it's the video display window. Try the menu at the top, "Views" and then choose "Video".
I already did that many times The view video window is open with no image..

and.. >I'm suspecting it might be that you don't have the codecs to decode the video. If I can play all my video files with VLC player that means the good codecs are installed for all program on the PC right or wrong ?

I think that is wrong as VLC decodes the video internally. In any case, Sonar would need to use common Windows-level codecs that are available to any application. Installing a decent codec suite (from a reliable source) couldn't hurt. Dan

I finaly found a workaround about my view video window not showing any playing video.. When I undock the view video window and drag it down with partialy hiding the bottom under the window taskbar the video plays clearly in the visible upper region and when I drag it still floating but all above the taskbar the image stops showing in playback.. WEIRD... Now I know its not a video codec issue. The video I found that is accepted is a WMV file 1080x720 6mbps. I cannot figure what settings I could tweak to get rid of that behaviour but I can live with that.. BTW my Sonar X3 version is X3a build 211 - x64 I think it's an old version.. I should upgrade ! Thanks everybody !!!

Update.. When I undock the view video window and drag it with partialy hiding a part of that window from left, right or bottom the video plays clearly in the visible region and when I drag it still floating but showing all that window (docked or undocked) the image stops showing in playback..

Final update.... Victory !!!! I just updated my dinosaure X3a version to X3e and VOILÀ !!! Now I can see clearly my view video window anywhere on my 2 PC screens !! And more.. X3 now accepts many more video file types like HD .MP4 easily. I'm very sorry for having waisted some of your time folks.. I should have checked my X3 version before trying to fix any of its issues. So it's solved and I'm so happy. Logging out.
