This wasn't an issue for me before but who knows how long it has been since my last cvs update. I think the layers capability was added since though. I am using an epia M10000 with the dfb unichrome driver. I am running Freevo on the primary layer and df_xine on the video layer. When Freevo starts df_xine, or if I start it myself from another terminal, the screen goes black and no video appears. That is the confusing part... if the fbdev primary layer was on top I would expect to still be seing the Freevo UI at least. At this time I decided to use dfblayer in another terminal to set the level of the video layer and it came up. I thought that I might be missing some layers setting in my directfbrc but I didn't see anything in the man page. Please correct me if I am wrong. I know that the unichrome driver was among the first to support this with the old underlay environment variable so maybe there's something there. Anyhow, since setting the layer level with dfblayer worked for me I added that option to df_xine since this property didn't seem to last between df_xine instances.
