Posts: 3 		FYI...Muvizu runs fine on my laptop with Win8. But while I was playing around (well enough never seems to be good enough for me...a flaw in my genes, I suppose) I switched to DirectX11 in the options panel. When I loaded a scene, the scene would flicker in random spots. I switched back to DirectX9 and everything is back to normal. Does this sound logical?

Indeed sounds logical. Windows 8 uses DirectX 11.1 instead DirectX 11, like Windows 7 so that might be the reason why things seem different.

DirectX 9 probably works better because it's definitely more stable (personal opinion here) than DirectX 10 and above.
Microsoft claim that there are improvements on Direct2D an Direct3D plus multi-threading, but that's what they claim...

I hope this helps. Thanks for you feedback

Cheers,
Marco
