Re: S2U2 Landscape

Some things you guys need to know...

Yes running S2U2 in RawBuffer mode "fixes" the garbled graphics of the lock screen in landscape mode. It also totall F's up the TP2's rendering performance in landscape overall. Dont believe me? Load up any benchmark test that can test graphics peformance in portrait and landscape and see how horrible it renders in landscape. Or load up a program with nice graphics and animations (the new Resco Photo Viewer beta is a very good demonstration).

This is NOT S2U2's fault though. If you launch Coreplayer it causes the same problem.

The reason some of you see the graphics go back to being messed up in S2U2 even after you switch it to raw buffer is because certain other apps (so far I know the Camera app for sure), "fix" the TP2 overall landscape performance while forcing S2U2 back into DirectDraw mode (though in settings it will still say RawBuffer). Do this, switch S2U2 to RawBuffer and test it in landscape. It should look fine. Then open and close back out of Camera and test S2U2 again, it should be back to being f'd up.
