What kind of interface is provided to output device plugins ? It would be nice if output devices could hook to the drawing primitives instead of plain ARGB OSD plane. When the output device is behind network, transferring just the primitives would give huge speed gain (drawing background using filled rectangle, drawing text using cached pixmaps etc.). Using derived cBitmap class would allow preloading pixmaps so that those could be transferred to the device memory in advance. - Petri _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
