@Xoma163 if you have not already tried to clone and build the project yourself, I encourage you to do that. I wonder if the pre-compiled executable is not compatible with your version of Windows. The Failed to get capabilities string length error early on tells me that the executable is likely not kosher with your Windows version.

@scottaxcell I think its problem with monitor. I try many another software. The second monitor is worked correctly
