Hi,

ok, that sounds fine to me. Maybe something like this: the GL-renderer
attach hook just unrefs existing EGLImages but does not create new
ones. New ones are created at repaint time on demand. This should
implictly result in composite-bypass avoiding the EGLImage creation,
because the renderer does not repaint those views.

Does this answer your question?

This is just off the top of my head, I didn't actually check how the
code would allow this.


Thanks,
pq
