CONST_DDCAPS2FLAGS

The CONST_DDCAPS2FLAGS enumeration is used in the lCaps2, lNLVBCaps2, lSVBCaps2 members of the DDCAPS type to describe additional driver-specific capabilities.

DDCAPS2_AUTOFLIPOVERLAY: The overlay can be automatically flipped to the next surface in the flip chain each time a video port VSYNC occurs, allowing the video port and the overlay to double-buffer the video without CPU overhead. This option is valid only when the surface is receiving data from a video port. If the video port data is noninterlaced or noninterleaved, it flips on every VSYNC. If the data is being interleaved in memory, it flips on every other VSYNC.
DDCAPS2_CANBOBHARDWARE: The overlay hardware can display each field of an interlaced video stream individually.
DDCAPS2_CANBOBINTERLEAVED: The overlay hardware can display each field of an interlaced video stream individually while it is interleaved in memory without causing any artifacts that might normally occur without special hardware support. This option is only valid when the surface is receiving data from a video port and the video is zoomed at least two times in the vertical direction.
DDCAPS2_CANBOBNONINTERLEAVED: The overlay hardware can display each field of an interlaced video stream individually while it is not interleaved in memory without causing any artifacts that might normally occur without special hardware support. This option is valid only when the surface is receiving data from a video port and the video is zoomed at least two times in the vertical direction.
DDCAPS2_CANCALIBRATEGAMMA: The system has a calibrator installed that can automatically adjust the gamma ramp so that the result is identical on all systems that have a calibrator. To invoke the calibrator when setting new gamma levels, use the DDSGR_CALIBRATE flag when calling the DirectDrawGammaControl.SetGammaRamp method. Calibrating gamma ramps incurs some processing overhead and should not be used frequently.
DDCAPS2_CANDROPZ16BIT: Sixteen-bit RGBZ values can be converted into 16-bit RGB values. (The system does not support 8-bit conversions.)
DDCAPS2_CANFLIPODDEVEN: The driver is capable of performing odd and even flip operations, as specified by the DDFLIP_ODD and DDFLIP_EVEN flags used with the DirectDrawSurface7.Flip method.
DDCAPS2_CANMANAGETEXTURE: The Microsoft® Direct3D® texture manager uses this capability to decide whether to put managed surfaces in nonlocal video memory. If the capability is set, the texture manager puts managed surfaces in nonlocal video memory. Drivers that cannot texture from local video memory should not set this capability.
DDCAPS2_CANRENDERWINDOWED: The driver is capable of rendering in windowed mode.
DDCAPS2_CERTIFIED: Display hardware is certified.
DDCAPS2_COLORCONTROLOVERLAY: The overlay surface contains color controls (such as brightness and sharpness)
DDCAPS2_COLORCONTROLPRIMARY: The primary surface contains color controls (for instance, gamma)
DDCAPS2_COPYFOURCC: The driver supports blitting any FOURCC surface to another surface of the same FOURCC.
DDCAPS2_FLIPINTERVAL: The driver responds to the DDFLIP_INTERVAL* flags. (see DirectDrawSurface7.Flip).
DDCAPS2_FLIPNOVSYNC: The driver responds to the DDFLIP_NOVSYNC flag (see DirectDrawSurface7.Flip).
DDCAPS2_NO2DDURING3DSCENE: Two-dimensional operations such as DirectDrawSurface7.Blt and DirectDrawSurface7.Lock cannot be performed on any surfaces that Direct3D is using between calls to the Direct3DDevice7.BeginScene and Direct3DDevice7.EndScene methods.
DDCAPS2_NONLOCALVIDMEM: The display driver supports surfaces in nonlocal video memory.
DDCAPS2_NONLOCALVIDMEMCAPS: Blit capabilities for nonlocal video-memory surfaces differ from local video memory surfaces. If this flag is present, the DDCAPS2_NONLOCALVIDMEM flag is also present.
DDCAPS2_NOPAGELOCKREQUIRED: DMA blit operations are supported on system-memory surfaces that are not page-locked.
DDCAPS2_PRIMARYGAMMA: Dynamic gamma ramps are supported for the primary surface. For more information, see Gamma and Color Controls.
DDCAPS2_STEREO: New for DirectX 7.0. Turns on the ddcaps.dwSVCaps bit to support stereo mode. The driver can do stereo in at least one mode other than the current mode. The application can use DirectDraw7.GetDisplayMode or DirectDraw7.GetDisplayModesEnum to get per-mode stereo information.
DDCAPS2_VIDEOPORT: Display hardware supports live video.
DDCAPS2_WIDESURFACES: The display surface supports surfaces wider than the primary surface.
