12 First import the following modules to get access to constants and
13 functions needed for overlay.
14
15 use SDL;
16 use SDL::Video;
17 use SDL::Overlay;
18
19 Init the video subsystem.
20
21 SDL::Init(SDL_INIT_VIDEO);
22
23 Create a display to use.
24
25 my $display = SDL::Video::set_video_mode(640, 480, 32, SDL_SWSURFACE);
26
27 Create and attach the display to a new overlay
28
29 my $overlay = SDL::Overlay->new( 100, 100, SDL_YV12_OVERLAY, $display);
30
32 A "SDL_Overlay" allows for video rendering on an "SDL_Surface" which is
33 a display.
34
35 The term 'overlay' is a misnomer since, unless the overlay is created
36 in hardware, the contents for the display surface underneath the area
37 where the overlay is shown will be overwritten when the overlay is
38 displayed.
39
41 new ( $width, $height, $YUV_flag, $display)
42 The constructor creates a SDL::Overlay of the specified width, height
43 and format (see "YUV_Flags" list below of available formats), for the
44 provided display.
45
46 Note the 'display' argument needs to actually be the surface created by
47 "SDL::Video::SetVideoMode" otherwise this function will segfault.
48
49 my $overlay = SDL::Overlay->new( $width, $height, $YUV_flag, $display );

69 w, h
70 Width and height of overlay
71
72 planes
73 Number of planes in the overlay. Usually either 1 or 3
74
75 pitches
76 An array of pitches, one for each plane. Pitch is the length of a row
77 in bytes.
78
79 pixels
80 As of release 2.3 direct right to overlay is disable.
81
82 An array of pointers to the data of each plane. The overlay should be
83 locked before these pointers are used.
84
85 see SDL::Video::lock_YUV_overlay, SDL::Video::unload_YUV_overlay
86
87 hw_overlay
88 This will be set to 1 if the overlay is hardware accelerated.
