[directfb-users] YUY2 video + RGBA osd alpha blending

[Stefan Lucke]

Hi,

I'm trying to blend and osd with alpha over an yuy2 video source.
Drawing is done with this:
      fprintf (stderr, "now stretch\n");
      //screen->Clear(0,0,0,0xff);
      //screen->SetBlittingFlags(DSBLIT_BLEND_ALPHACHANNEL);
      screen->SetBlittingFlags(DSBLIT_NOFX);
      screen->StretchBlit(videoSurface, &src, &dst);

//      if (osdActive)
      {
        fprintf (stderr, "now osd blit\n");
        //screen->SetBlittingFlags(DSBLIT_NOFX);
        screen->SetBlittingFlags(DSBLIT_BLEND_ALPHACHANNEL);
        //screen->SetBlittingFlags(DSBLIT_BLEND_COLORALPHA);
        screen->Blit(osdSurface, NULL, 0, 0);//&src, &dst);
      }

      fprintf (stderr, "now flip\n");
      screen->Flip();
      fprintf (stderr, "now done\n");

Surfaces are allocated by:
  dsc.flags = (DFBSurfaceDescriptionFlags) (DSDESC_CAPS |
                                            DSDESC_PIXELFORMAT);
  dsc.caps = DSCAPS_NONE;
  DFB_ADD_SURFACE_CAPS(dsc.caps, DSCAPS_FLIPPING);
  DFB_ADD_SURFACE_CAPS(dsc.caps, DSCAPS_PRIMARY);
  DFB_ADD_SURFACE_CAPS(dsc.caps, DSCAPS_VIDEOONLY);
  dsc.pixelformat = DSPF_ARGB;

  osdSurface   = dfb->CreateSurface (dsc);
  screen       = dfb->CreateSurface (dsc);

The problem is that the screen gets only updated once for a while when the osd is 
refreshed,
and only the area that is half transpararent is redrawn.
Graphic card is G550. DirectFB is v0.9.21.
