I am trying to get my system to support PlayTo being called multiple times
with a different destination rectangle.
I am having some problems doing this:
I do not have direct access to the Surface data. As the VideoProvider is
hiding my embedded hardware. This means the example V4L is not very useful.
I have a IDirectFBSurface handle. Using this i can get access to the
following things
DirectFBDisplayLayerID
CoreLayer
CoreSurface
This is good but the problem is that I can not get access to an
IDirectFBDisplayLayer.
I could use IDirectFB->GetDisplayLayer(IDirectFB, displayLayerID)
But I do not have access to the core DFB interface inside my video provider.
The reason I would lilke access to the IDirectFBDisplayLayer is that i could
then use the normal method to change the destination rectangle.
The only alternative I have at the moment is to use
get_active_context(CoreLayer, context)
This would then allow me to set the destination rectangle this way. However
I have tried this before in the past and have found it to not always be
reliable.
Does anyone else have any ideas on how to chnage the destination rectangle
of a display layer from within a video provider.
Hope you can help
Dan
