We have to do this as we will be moving
to a new video card library-based way of
getting the Display Profiles information.
This is designed to enable me to add new
video card drivers in the future, such as
Intel, in order to support 'combined'
video screens,
I finally figured out how to check for displays
that are selectable, but aren't in use. It's not
as striaght forward with AMD ASL library as
it is with NVIDIA's driver, thats for sure.
Seem to have fixed the exceptions based on
all the testing I've been doing. So there is at
least that!
Have now go the required data, but for some
reason AMD is returning two valid adapters
when there is actually just one in the system!
Could be a problem with the device installation,
but I will need figuring out how to either remove
duplicates, or figure out the information to use as
a filter for ignoring one of the adapters.
We now have enough data for me to identify
all the connected display devices, and to
generate a display identifier which will work
no matter if AMD Eyefinity is enabled or not!
This should allow me to generate an display
identifier that will work like the NVIDIA ones.
Trying different ways to get a list of all the connnected
displays via the AMD ADL library. It seems pretty
onerous at the moment, and seems like there is still a
lot of work to go :/. AGS may have been the better
way to go, but ADL at least had a C# example for me
to start with!
Need to add Display Device info extraction.
Have created consts for the connector types
in c#, but now need to add the logic to decode
the ADLDeviceConfig returned value!
This is a lot of learning about Pinvoke
and the way to marshal c structures
into c# managed structures when passed
as out.
This is all a lot more indepth than I was
hoping it was going to be!
There is a long road ahead of me, but
at least some of the structure is working
now! We can at least call the AMD ADL
library and get results returned back!
ADL2_Display_SLSMapConfig_SetState
ADL2_Display_SLSGrid_Caps
ADL2_Display_SLSMapIndexList_Get
ADL2_Display_SLSMapIndex_Get
Have to try and sort out the delegates and
the other bits to match the rest of the
AMD provided library entries.
Tried to add the first SLS map config get function into
the ADL.cs file, as well as all the supporting data
structures. Time will tell whether this will work or not!
DisplayMagician can now handle it if a gamelibrary
is removed, or if you use a shortcut config file from
later version of DisplayMagician with an earlier version
of the DisplayMagician application. It will simply ignore
the incompatible shortcut, and it won't be able to be
edited or used.
This fixes the stupid '"Pass arguments to Program"
not retaining checkbox check bug' error that some
how passed my testing! Fixes#19.
Really sorry to everyone for missing this as I really
did do some extensive testing (or so I thought) but
it looks like I'll need to do another release!
