Windows 10 : No more than a white window, libraries scanning issue ?
When I launch VLC UWP (download from the Windows Store) on my computer, I have only a totally white window for all interface, no button, no text, only white. But VLC seems to work well and seems to scan my libraries.
I try many time to use VLC UWP, but I have many problems with it. One of the last were that VLC close immediately after I launch it. I decide to reinstall it by uninstall and install it. But after when I launch VLC, I have a full white interface.
I look in resource consummation (I used to have a problem with that when VLC used to scan my libraries, CPU was near to 100%), CPU ok 0-1%, Memory around 28Mo (but seems to grow slowly, now it is more 31.3Mo) but disk was around 6Mo/s and sometimes go over 20Mo/s. I look witch files it use in the resources monitor of Windows, it seems that it is writing in the file "[home]\AppData\Local\Packages\VideoLAN.VLC_paz6r1rewnh0a\LocalState\BackendLog.txt". I open this file with a text editor. It is a very long file of over 45000 line and it still grows. It was mainly composed of a repeat for all my libraries of something like this : (I replace my home directory by [home] and the media name by myMedia.avi)
[core] (../../src/input/input.c:293) Creating an input for preparsing 'myMedia.avi'

This lines can be repeat many times for the same media.
I seems to try to indexing and making thumbnail of all my libraries.
