AFAIK, it does, at least for certain graphics cards (also depending on the configuration), there are so-called "layers" and the device capabilities can be queried in the API. Even if there is no good enough support for separate layers to do this, DirectFB further supports "surfaces" whithin a layer, AFAIK that's how softdevice implements the OSD, and it's not at all CPU-intense, in fact I guess those operations are also accelerated, and the OSD shows up all the time at the same, correct, native display resolution, regardless of the video resolution (i.e. it also uses the black top/bottom bars when the video is 16:9 letterboxed on my 4:3 TV, or it is drawn still at 720x576 even when the broadcast is only 544x764). _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
