Layered windows and Windows Vista

[Guest MueMeister]

Hi there.

 

Does anybody of you know about problems in Vista

when using a layered window while video overlay is in action.

 

I have an application where I play video with video overlay (like WMP).

Now, when I use layered windows on top of that application UI everything

starts flickering really bad. The problem seems to be gone when using

modes like DXVA or video for windows.

 

Is there a way to avoid this (flags, etc) ? Or is this default

behavior in windows vista ?

 

TIA

Mue

 

P.S. Another address for me where I should post this question ?
