I assume this was related to the problem with OpenGL and Qt5.

Mixxx 2.3 beta should have a workaround on Windows for this, even though it was a less-than-ideal solution.

Could you verify if that works for you?

Is this still an issue with recent Windows builds?

I just tried with latest Main build on Windows7. I can confirm this behavior for all "(GL ES)" waveform types, while the others work flawless.

GL ES? Do you mean GLSL? Do the plain GL waveforms work okay?

In the "Waveform type" combobox, there are only waveforms with suffix (GL SL) and without any suffix. The waveform types without suffix always work for me - but I'm not the original reporter of this bug.

Can anybody else confirm this?

Define a Windows environment variable "QT_OPENGL" and set it to "desktop" solved the problem for me

rafaelfrench, what GPU do you have? Are the drivers up to date? Can you please test opening a command prompt and run:

set QT_OPENGL=desktop

then

C:\Program Files\Mixxx\Mixxx.exe
