I think that was the series, where they (nvidia) dropped the overlay unit. When I remind this correct, from this series on only the blitter can be used.

But this depends on DirectFB's driver capabilities too. > However normal framebuffer is also > showing menus but no video. Also shouldn't colourspace errors mean I get > no menus either?
