Hi Mario,
Although unconfirmed by their website, the rumour goes that the HDMI
Forum will release a 2.2 specification somewhere in Januari. Do you
think that an open source 2.1 implementation will be allowed soon
after?
When new specifications are made available it's not like the old one
suddenly becomes "open", so I don't see any reason that a new
specification would change anything.
In the meantime I also checked the framerate synchronization through
glxgears at different resolutions and framerates. This does function
as expected. Although I haven't yet inspected the glxgears source
codes in detail, the OpenGL double buffering must be functional up to
some level. This means that the problem must be confined to GTK and
the GtkGLArea widget. Using GDK_BACKEND=x11 I do get a double buffered
context, but the default buffer does not alternate between GL_FRONT
and GL_BACK.
Enjoy new year's eve!
Regards,
Mischa.

I understand. I'll concentrate on different aspects of testing the
connection with this TV, like gdk_monitor_get_description(...) doesn't
return a valid description when the application is started with
GDK_BACKEND=x11. I also have less trivial questions about the ancient
and seemingly long forgotten concept of page flipping. I'll think of
something to do.
Thank you for your help.
OK, If you have more questions about other things that come up along the
way feel free to raise them on amd-gfx.
