You have not mentioned if you tried it with the OpenSound optional package. have you done that? > Video is a Intel GMA 950. Has anyone else got that one working? IIRC, this is a problem in the app_server when it tries to use double buffered drawing with acceleration (you can disable it in src/servers/app/drawing/AccelerantHWInterface.cpp::SetMode()). In any case, you don't need to be sorry at all to use VESA, you don't miss out on anything except video overlays. And that doesn't mean much because you can enable smooth scaling in the MediaPlayer. And if you really, really want smooth scaling in VLC as well, you can hack app_server to check the app signature in ServerWindow::DispatchGraphicsMessage() when handling DrawBitmap() and add the smooth scaling option for calls comming from VLC... ;-) Best regards, -Stephan
