Re: [Announce] SDL w/ X11/EGL/GLES2 backend for Harmattan
Will this version be able to resize 854x480 apps from Harmattan to 800x480 Fremantle resolution? -- Marcin 2012/8/7 Ville Syrjälä syrj...@sci.fi Some time ago I started fiddling around with SDL. I didn't even want to think about using the pvr2d stuff, so I decided to implement hardware acceleration using EGL/GLES2. I took some version of the harmattan SDL port, removed the pvr2d stuff, and added the EGL/GLES2 stuff to the X11 video code. It's not very cleanly added, and I'm sure there are various issues with window re-creation and whatnot. Features: - EGL/GLES2 based, no pvr2d stuff - Always uses a shadow buffer, because preserved flips aren't supported on the platform. - Automagically scales the application content to fullscreen using the GPU. - Software access to hardware surfaces implemented with glFinish() and EGL_KHR_lock_surface. I initially tried to use EGL_KHR_fence_sync instead of glFinish() but there seemed to be some flushing bug left in the driver causing problems. glFinish() should be OK on pvr, but on some other hardware it could be a problem. So it's not the most portable solution. - Supports color keyed and alpha blended blits. Only color keying has actually been tested. - some SDL tests, uqm and scummvm seem to work reasonably well The code is here [1] in case anyone is interested. It was languishing on my hard drive already for some time, and since I wasn't able to motivate myself to work on it further, I decided to set if free as is. The git history is a bit of a mess, but ATM I'm too lazy to clean it up.

In such a case w/ 858x480 SDL surface and 800x480 screen resolution, the code would scale it to 800x(480*800/854). So it tries to preserve the aspect ratio, but it does assume square pixels, so eg. some old 320x200 game port would have distorted aspect ratio. But if you considering using this on Fremantle you can probably forget it, since IIRC some of the required EGL/GLES2 features are missing. 2012/8/7 Ville Syrjälä syrj...@sci.fi Some time ago I started fiddling around with SDL.
