Hi, The attached patch defines a new DSPF_BYTE pixelformat allowing DirectFB-based applications to allocate IDirectFBSurface(s) which are backed by contiguous buffers in physical memory. These surfaces could be used for transport such by loading data into these and passing them to other devices (ex: h/w decoders).
As these are still IDirectFBSurface(s) objects, DSPF_BYTE surfaces then also benefit from all the internal functionality provided by DirectFB such as reference counting, the integration w/ IDirectFBDataBuffer and so on. Feedback is welcome. Regards, -Ilyes
