Hi,
I am looking for help with the following problem:
I am running a program which continuously captures pictures from an external video source and displays them in a window. The background of the pictures is black. The window is configured as followed:
- black is defined as transparent color (layered window).
- it always stays in front of other windows / applications.
- no title or symbol bar. No frame.
Overlaying the semi-transparent window with other windows (including Direct3D applications) works perfect. Unfortunately there is a problem with OpenGL applications. The screen starts to flicker terribly. Both programs seem to alternate.
My questions are:
Is there generally a possibility to solve this with OpenGL?
Can this problem be easily solved (for example by driver configuration)?
The source code of both programs is available!
How to implement this in principle?
Thank you for quick response.
