Server 1.2.1.0 - are Windows XP SP3
Client 1.2.1.0 - are Windows 7
Host port 5900

If I open a Firefox 45.0.2(or any other version) I can't see a windows frame(it looks like fully transparent) but see that in task panel(lower panel), and user say that it opened and working (not hanging on).

Firefox frame windows invisible
Re: Firefox frame windows invisible
What just discovered by experiments.
"mv video hook driver2" is installed on server machine, I can see it in "device manager"
in my ini file it using option
"EnableDriver=1"
What I try? I've disable driver, set
EnableDriver=0
restart a uvnc service,
reconect and I can see a Firefox window frame.
If I redo setting the problem persist.
Can any one explain what the problem with a driver?
May be it in ini file or not?

A mirror driver only clone driver gdi functions.
If your video driver is bypassing ( with hardware acceleration ) some functions, they doesn't show on the viewer site.
It also depend on the application. Normal the app need to be aware that the video mode changed and run in non acceleration mode
when the mirror driver get's activated. But not apps does.
A workaround is to use the troubleshoot slider ( OS display options) and disable hardware acceleration.
Then, when the mirror driver activate there is no mode switch and you don't have site effects.
