I'll have a look at the softdevice src this weekend & compare with xineliboutput.
Better to compare with xine-lib (src/video_out/video_out_directfb.c), as there's not even single line of directfb code in xineliboutput :)
Xine-lib DirectFB "unscalded OSD" (hardware alpha blending) is currently disabled for some matrox cards because of problems with tv-out. See notes on revisions 1.40 and 1.42 at http://xine.cvs.sourceforge.net/xine/xine-lib/src/video_out/video_out_direct... (so, unscaled OSD might work with xine-lib 1.1.2 (?) and recent DirectFB (?)).
I tried to give xine-lib1.1.2-r3 a go today but after rebuilding xineliboutput against xine-libs., I still receive the message "[12674] [input_vdr] WARNING: Video output driver reports it does not support unscaled overlays !" - so maybe I need an older version of xine-lib?? Unfortunatly that version is as far back as I can go with gentoo, perhaps somebody with better skills could test an older version still.
Theres a chance I made a mess of trying out the older xine-lib as now I have no video just sound :-) good thing my girlfriend is out for the day...!
