Endless, can you maybe email me a side loadable example of double-buffered tearing, so I can file a bug on that?

Yep. Yep. Yep.

Thanks fellas!

Two more things

You might move your swapbuffers outside the if/then so:

That works, but if I put my clear to the beginning of my while statement and before my if/thens, it causes a flicker. froze my box once. I move it to the begining of my if/then where things are drawn, it works fine, no flicker.


Also, when I draw a 720*480 image it's fine, but if I use a 1280*720 image, it goes black, and eventually freezes my box (while playing video). I assume that's a memory issue. Is there a way to look at how much memory is being used and what's available? That would help me out in determining what image sizes I can use and when I'm running out of memory.

open up a telnet at your box ip port 8080
telnet r2d2_bitmaps
if at first you don't succeed try it again. never works the first time for me. Yes its a must have

Whaat! What else can you do with that telnet port?

[NewManLiving]

We are all wondering that ourselves. Getting that was not easy.

[360tv]

Dang, that sucks. It seems like if there's more things like that that'll keep us from spending time chasing our tails, and spending time on getting things done, it'd be a win win. Oh well!

You can "genkey" and you can "press"
