For DirectDraw Change FullDouble to FullTriple simply by changing the BackBufferCount for the primary surface from 1 to 2 ( in DX5_SetVideoMode ) Instead of polling GetFlipStatus in a busy wait, simply return if the previous flip is still waiting to happen. (in DX5_FlipHWSurface) The problem is …

OP sounds like a bad idea... If you _really_ want to capture your desktop you should lower the resolution of your desktop ( which will make the dosbox window look bigger )

DDraw is all over the patch docs. DirectDraw only affects A10-II Silent Thunder when running with full screen enabled in the Preferences Menu. The demo has lots of ddraw code in it... but I haven't look into how to get it activated with no preference menu.

Fixed an issue with the wrapper code that was causing a blank screen on OpenGeneral and probably hundreds of other games. --- YURI runs fine here so it will be hard for me to debug. It sounds like an issue with specific drivers... so the best solution from my point-of-view will be to add front …
