+--- Thread: Dirty regions (/showthread.php?tid=103904)
- Jeroen - 2011-08-23
So, I've been looking into visualizing the dirty regions for the first time and it seems there's quite a few problem areas in my skin. When I compare with Confluence it only shows dirty regions on some controls and during animations. But with reFocus everything is covered in an orange glow (example). Which I found quite unsettling.
Problem is, I have no idea how I can fix things or even what I should look into. Some advice is very welcome.
edit: the visualization is blinking a couple of times every couple of seconds (so it gets darker and lighter orange)
edit2: just tried with an older version of reFocus that uses compressed textures, could that be what makes the difference?

@Jeroen you sure you have set the algorithm to 1? Without that it will redraw everything (and make everything orange in visualization) on any change.
Compressed textures shouldn't matter afaik but I think we mostly tested it with compressed (as we tested with confluence)

yup, my advancedsettings looks like this:
PHP Code:
<advancedsettings>
<gui>
<algorithmdirtyregions>1</algorithmdirtyregions>
<visualizedirtyregions>true</visualizedirtyregions>
<nofliptimeout>-1</nofliptimeout>
</gui>
</advancedsettings>

Videowindow is causing this.
Edit: Try adding Player.HasVideo to the visible condition of the videowindow, so that it's only visible if a video is playing.

Also a pulsing animation can be the cause.

That fixed it
Also, it seems to have a positive effect on performance.Awesome, cheers guys!

Dirty regions not working correctly with the on-screen-keyboard under Confluence in the latest nightly on a Apple TV 2.
It is at least acting glitchy when go to the OSK from the weather settings to type in order to change the city.
Both the blinking command-promt and the OSK-keys do not seem to refresh properly when activated dirty regions.
To replicate just try the OSK as the issue should be easy to spot with no other advanced settings enabled.
