Hi,
I've been using directfb with a Sigma designs SMP8634LF chip and I've been really amazed at the API and how well it performs. Thanks very much - this is a great piece of work! Everyhing works fine but I'm now at the point where I want to play multimedia using the hardware decoders coming with the Sigma chip. The chip runs using a uClibc linux. Is there a way I can do this? Is it possible to play video from an external program on a layer, or something like that without degrading the performance. I was thinking of using directfb for the osd and all other graphics and then just using the sigma chip for the decoding and displaying of the video. In the Sigma documentation they have a sample of creating a osd using the framebuffer with their chip so I have been guessing it is possilble. Is there a existing video provider that can be used or any other easy way to do this, or will I have to create a new video provider? Would doing it through a video provider degrade the performance at all? Thank You, Eugene. _______________________________________________ directfb-users mailing list [email protected] http://mail.directfb.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/directfb-users
