Yes -modesetting (or whichever other driver) would need to set up the properties correctly for Xvideo color keying. Since default assumption for all other (generic) compositors is that planes won't do any color keying in the boot-up state. -Daniel -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation http://blog.ffwll.ch _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
