An attempt without closed source drivers would be helpfull. Well at the moment I think the source of your problem has something to do with color-keying. Thats the way OSD and video are mixed. Where OSD is drawn in BLACK video should be visible, any other color should show as is (no video). Softdevice OSD drawing method could be changed to software alpha blending. Thats in our setup: "OSD alpha blending:" with values: "pseudo" | "software" and applies _not_ for dfb-out. > > Thanks again for the help. > > Stefan Lucke wrote: > > >On Samstag, 10.
