Bug 564

Summary: Screen flickers on resize (X11 video)
Product: SDL Reporter: Daniel Thaler <daniel>
Component: videoAssignee: Ryan C. Gordon <icculus>
Status: RESOLVED FIXED QA Contact: Sam Lantinga <slouken>
Severity: normal    
Priority: P2    
Version: 1.2.13   
Hardware: x86   
OS: Linux   

Description Daniel Thaler 2008-02-29 14:01:40 UTC 
calling SDL_SetVideoMode in response to an SDL_VIDEORESIZE event causes flicker, because this call not only sets the new mode but also refreshes the screen with a black surface.
When the user the drags the edge of the window, the repeated switch between the game's graphics and the black surface appear as flicker.
