In the last days of 2005 I have written an small but effect full patch for VDR. It allows the developer to mix two Colors. So if your Memory only allows you to use 4 Colors, you can mix them to 16 Colors :-) If you can use 8 Colors then you can mix them to 64 Colors. This is the theory. Not all colors looks nice. But you can use them. An other limitation is that you only can use the new colors for
rectangles.
(maybe I will expand this to the other elements) ...
Thanks.
I have attached a patch for the demonstration because on my system with FF-cards the plugin will create but not osd is not show -> ("wrong aligment" in log). -> Width will now defined with "& ~0x07" Three other changes also included: 1. osd will only deleted if it exist before creating osd (i'm not sure if it needed) 2. i think the definition of area was to big (height and width is now decreased by 1) 3. without the patch for vdr only 1 color is used
