I'm trying to register the application so that it handles edomh:// links and also so that I can link it to my Frontier account, but evertime I click the "register application" button, it goes through the process of checking but then nothing happens and it still shows that it's not registered. I'm not sure how to troubleshoot this. I am running it using admin permissions, so that shouldn't be a problem. Do I just uninstall it and reinstall the program?
Depends on the background lighting apparently.
I'm having a strange problem.I'm running EDOMaterials Helper which worked fine on my old Win10+NVIDIA PC, but on my new Win11 PC causes the screen to go black on occasions (seems to be related to material notifications cos I then also get a series of EDOMH notification beeps). I can ALT+TAB to go back to the game screen & the game is still working ok, as is EDOMH.
I suspect the problem is with the EDOMH augmented reality feature & it's probably related to the actual vs in-game screen resolution which dont seem to match in EDOMH...Ive now got an AMD RX 7800xt gpu & not sure Ive got it set up properly (graphics settings confuses my ageing brain!!). I've got a 32" 3840x2160 16:9 G-Sync monitor but the game graphics quality is poor if I set the game resolution to less than that, but EDOMH resolution box shows 1440p. Ive tried in-game resolutions of both 1080p and 1440p in the hope that this would match EDOMH expectations and the AMD card would upscale to 3840x2160, but the graphics quality was poor.

you need to run windowed or borderless. if some scaling is done outside the standard windows one, you could get issues.
currently running borderless with game at 2560x1440 which matches EDOMH notification resolution box setting, in-game quality settings set to Ultra, EDOMH augmented reality on.
Just checked AMD Adrenaline & Super Resolution was set to enabled but not borderless (it is now!). That exhausts my understanding of graphics settings...
Had a black screen occur once so far this afternoon. will walk the dog and try again
@jixxed : can I ask what is the point of the notification resolution setting? I cant change it, and the test button alongside seems to do nothing.
Do you mean by "the standard windows" the native screen resolution by right clicking the desktop? Thats set to 3840x2160 to match my screen.
I did try to do a bit more gaming later in the afternoon to test this further, but got distracted by a very strange bug where I got a bounty for killing some npc (they were supposed to be scavengers, but apparently some werent), paid off the bounty, tried to deliver a package at a settlement but got another bounty for "landing at a restricted site" (even though I had landing permission and was on the correct pad) from the earlier bounty faction who didnt own that settlement, then tried to pay it off but the bounty didnt exist. Wondering if I need to do a virus scan or game reload.

Sometimes bounties disappear and it needs a restart of the game, if all else fails try a verfication of the game files from the launcher.
Was going to do that yesterday but decided to play via Steam instead (I've got both versions installed...Never tidied up after the Steam installation). Still had one instance of black screen with both game and EDOMH screens still running when I did an ALT+TAB. Will check the event viewer next time it happens, I suspect it might be a Win11 issue, but still could be a graphics issue with the EDOMH overlay- only happens when I get a notification, and the overlay of blueprint/wishlist/powerplay data seems iffy. Computer graphics is outside my realm of expertise.
What worried me more was getting the Restricted Area on the landing pad and the fact that the settlement was owned by a totally different faction, but will do a file check today. Did a virus scan which reported nothing. Must walk the copawlot before today's rain starts...
Edit
tried to validate the game files via the launcher- no status report on the validity & 35 minutes later the game is half reloaded! Since I'll have to redo this come Wednesday's update I stopped it...I'll play on the Steam version until then!
Edit2
had another message popup on game start about GameBar, which I uninstalled. Think I'm going to do another debloat!

Hmm, the validation should work, it usually takes quite a long time though (I'm sure I've had it take well over 40 minutes in the past, albeit on a less able PC). It might be time for a complete reinstall. At least you won't lose your progress (but save the visited systems file somewhere first!).
Running on Steam today (it's my age 
), with EDOMH running. No problems so far, though havent yet done a reactivation mission (none available here) to go searching for mats- black screen seems to appear when getting a mat from a locker.
I may do a complete reinstall Wednesday after the update.
edit
ah, black screen at 14:27:27 on attempting to access the data port on a crashed nav beacon (trying to get manufacturing instructions, but no data at all!). There are no events at that time shown by the Event Viewer. It's got to be some interaction between EDOMH & the game (currently running borderless, might try windowed).

Well, Ive successfully managed to download data from a crashed satellites whilst running EDOMH & no black screen, so that may have been solved with Windowed mode and game running at 2160p ( 3840 x 2160) screen resolution...
would try to get some mats at a settlement tomorrow...but update!!
However now Im not sure Im getting wishlist overlay of the top few lines when talking to the bartender....sure Ive seen that mentioned by someone, somewhere.

@Frankymole : just read your post https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threads/elite-dangerous-odyssey-materials-helper.610816/post-10345963
And I think Ive been getting the same problem with the top few lines. Did you solve it?

I don't think so.
I went to see and the servers are in maintenance. So I can't check.
Down until around 15:00 for the colonisation update

The bartender trade overlay is working for me, but only when I turn off "blur" in the Elite display options, as per the advice in the EDOMH itself :
So now I have:

Ah ok, thought I had blur already turned off, but will check tomorrow
Ah yes, blur had been turned on somehow...turned it off again and EDOMH now working ok!
May go back and see if it now works in borderless mode too...

Just wanted to say thank you for this incredible app, especially the Colonization WIP which has saved my sanity. Keeping track of commodities for outposts/settlements was a spreadsheet nightmare but no more thanks to you. Sent you a donation, not much, wish I could afford more. Kudos!
