    After installing the 17.1.3 version, I see games on my monitor. Is this how it is supposed to be? Previously the screen was black, and I thought this is good because no resources are spent to render the video on the monitor (direct mode).

    There were several unwanted side effects to the old method. It worked good for many games, but for others it caused issues ranging from excessive loading times to games not starting at all.

    vorpX now checks whether Vsync is on and either shows a warning if that is the case or disables it if possible, which addresses the potential performance issues with mirroring. If you want to be extra sure, you can force-disable Vsync in your graphics driver.
