OSD default skin keeps files open

[daffy]

It seems as if the OSD skinning engine keeps a few files open, although this is not necessary.

 

This happens for me in the default OSD skin, e.g. with

 

D:\software\DVBViewer\OSDSkins\Default\Images\progress_left.png

 

I would expect one of two things:

 

a) image files are cached in memory, always

(and no file handle is kept open)

 

image files are always read from disk

 

Steps to verify:

 

* download Process Explorer from http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/ProcessExplorer.html

 

* start DVBViewer

 

* start Process Explorer

 

* in Process Explorer, View -> Show Lower Pane = checked

* in Process Explorer, View -> Lower Pane View = Handles

 

* locate and click on DVBViewer process instance in upper view

 

* browse through the list of open handles in lower pane which appear and review for appropriateness.

And, FWIW, these image files also show up as loaded DLLs.

Well, you have to fill out a bug report to MS. The files are cached in memory but it seems gdiplus keeps them open, nothing I can do about it.

There seems to be a much more funnier problem inside a d3d matrix operations. I stumbled over it while creating a d3d video renderer:

xScale should be = aspect ratio / yScale but is

xScale = 6 * aspect / yscale;

 

I have no idea why
