Monitors and MemoryHi,
I have a couple of programs on my Windows 11 system that when I have open cause my Odyssey G9 to occasionally go blank for a second or two and then when the screen comes back, I see the blue box in the top left corner showing "Display port" as if the input source had just been selected/changed.
The two programs I notice this on are Plex and NoMachine.
Is this likely to be an issue with the monitor or the display driver.
Cheers.

Monitors and MemoryI would blame the G9 for not being able to handle the garbage that Plex and Nomachine inflict upon it.
Are these the only pieces of software to do this?

Monitors and MemoryI've had the same issue on two separate G9 monitors (firmware updated on both). Hope this gets addressed on future patches.

Monitors and MemoryJust found this, which was opened a couple of months ago: https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Monitors-and-Memory/Samsung-Odyssey-G9-Neo-DisplayPort-Screen-go...
The only difference is that I don't see any lines when the screen goes black.
I also tried the suggestion in that thread of reducing the refresh rate, which appears to stop the issue, but is far from a solution.
I'm also wondering if it might be a driver issue, as this didn't manifest itself when I first got the monitor (or after Samsung replaced the screen and a bunch of the circuitry for a different flickering issue), but some time later. But I can't remember exatly when.
Cheers.

Monitors and MemoryFound 2 more programs that also do this:
TurboTax
BitWarden
And I guess there's a bunch more.
