SDL2

@jabirulo

Please take a look at testnative example. You need to open a native window yourself and pass window pointer to SDL2.

@Capehill

ok, just compiled testnative and will look what it does. THX

@Capehill
Have you any idea of how to deal correctly with the situation when we play the video on 8 bit screens ? As we do use all those renderers/surfaces of 16-32 bits , when we try to play it on 8bit screens we have broken colors instead. Maybe SDL2 have some funtions/tags/helpers to help handle 8bit screenmodes ?

@kas1e

Maybe SDL_Renderer should be skipped in that kind of scenario. Perhaps (8-bit?) source surface can be blitted to window directly:

https://wiki.libsdl.org/SDL_GetWindowSurface

Not sure about how palette will behave. I'm guessing application is setting up the palette itself?

@Capehill
Btw, will it make sense to change a bit functional of that simple prefs:SDL tool, when "save" is clicked ? I.e. now when you click "save" nothing visually happens. Instead, maybe it will be better to auto-close prefs window once use hit "save" ? So it will give necessary feadback, and anyway when one click "save" it offten (or all the time?) mean exit as well.

@kas1e

Maybe, or some status label.

Hi, changed to SAVE&QUIT (included sources)

@jabirulo

Thank you for your contributions. It seems this patch is based on some older version of prefs code (radiobuttons were removed, some things changed) and I need to resolve conflicts + make coding style consistent before locale support can be merged.

2.24.0 RC1 is available: https://github.com/AmigaPorts/SDL-2.0/ ... /tag/v2.24.0-rc1-amigaos4

Please give it some testing and be aware of the version jump from 2.0.22 to 2.24.0 which affects especially shared object users. 2.24.0 should be backwards compatible so you could make a link from libSDL2-2.0.so to libSDL2-2.24.so or keep both shared object versions installed.

@Capehill

SDLbenchmark crash on Sam440 after completing the test

Function --> OS4_CloseWindow.isra.0

Probably because i have MiniGL by default and not opengles?

@samo79

Do you have a complete crashlog? Are you using the official minigl.library? I cannot test MiniGL apps at the moment due to RadeonRX card. Sdl2benchmark works otherwise for me.

@Capehill

Yes i saved somewhere, i'm using latest MiniGL 2.24 from OS4Depot

@Capehill

Why do you always time your releases to when I'm at work???



Thank you very much for the ongoing development.

Any pointers for the newly added Screenblanker hint?

@Raziel

Bad luck I guess :)

Anyway, ideally you shouldn't need to do anything if it's OK to disable blanker by default.

I wrote in readme this:

Here the crashlog: https://files.fm/u/6k2aa32k7

Btw, by versioning the latest controllermap binary test present in latest archive, it ask for the availibility of the old libSDL2-2.0.so ?

"Failed to find canonical name for libSDL2-2.0.so"

I was cancelled It by thinking it was unnecessary ..

Edit: ops just read better :-p

@Capehill

Woohoo, controlled by an envvar...even better, thanks a lot

@Capehill

ok (fixed) and reuploaded
http://jabirulo.byethost13.com/temp/sdl2/SDL2prefs_V1.5.7z

-Removed radionbutton stuff
-Added images to menu option
-Added MenuImageSize envvar to resize menu images

OK, tried to "follow" coding style, sorry for the hassle.

@samo79

Thanks for the log. Unfortunately line numbers don't seem to be correct. For example this

[src/video/amigaos4/SDL_os4window.c:674] AmigaOS4:SObjs/libSDL2-2.24.so:OS4_CloseWindow.isra.0()+0x1c (section 11 @ 0xC4ED4)

points just to the beginning of the function. I don't know what isra means.

If you are able to reproduce issue, maybe you can use libSDL2-2.24_debug.so instead of libSDL2-2.24.so to get some more serial logs?

controllermap: I forgot to replace this binary for RC1.

@Capehill

yep noticed by downloading your latest sdl2, sorry :-/

Trying to update/fix to lastest sdlPrefs now, will upload updated ASAP.

EDIT: updated to latest version sdl2prefs, same link as previous (http://jabirulo.byethost13.com/temp/sdl2/SDL2prefs_V1.5.7z)
