Unfortunately I can't find it. I've checked and re-checked the code that defines the overlay but I cannot find anything wrong with it.

The even more frustrating thing is that the bug now happens the *second* time that I open rawcam after a reboot (that is why I thought I fixed it). Also google does not provide any info about N9 and video overlay (funnily enough rawcam is the second result of "harmattan video overlay" google search query.

I also tried CameraPro N9 (link) because it offers features similar to rawcam - manual control of exposure/focus/iso/flash plus DNG capture. I definetly can say that rawcam is better than CameraPro at many aspects, but CameraPro doesn't have overlay bug. Maybe you could contact the author of CameraPro and ask him how he managed to prevent overlay bug? I think he uses somehow the same technique as you in his app.

Please do the following test:
1. Reboot
2. Open rawcam and take a picture. Closer rawcam
3. Repeat step 2
4. Open video player (overlay should be dimmed)
5. Open camerapro. Close camerapro
6. Open videoplayer.

Is the video still dimmed?

Nah, it didn't help - video is still dimmed.

BTW, now I'm using KMPlayer+MPlayer to watch videos and overlay bug causes video in KMPlayer to be not dimmed but comepletely black! Maybe this information can help somehow, because it's clearly related to how video playback implemented. You can find sources for KMPlayer here: https://garage.maemo.org/frs/?group_id=42

Didn't go over the whole thread, but could it be that the overlay changes the xv color key. Maybe reset it to 'auto' on exit

It does chnange the color key, but I'm saving the old one into a variable and restoring it upon exit, but still...

I haven't seen an auto option though, do you have a code snippet or reference page handy?

From mplayer sources: x11_common.c

Atom xv_atom = XInternAtom(mDisplay, "XV_COLORKEY",False);
XvSetPortAttribute( mDisplay, xv_port, xv_atom, vo_colorkey );

and vo_colorkey is probably NULL as far as I grepped for CK_METHOD_AUTOPAINT and vo_colorkey.

Update with some googling, it should be XV_AUTOPAINT_COLORKEY set to 1

I won't check out the vertical lines either, sorry PsychEinside but as they don't affect the photos I think it's minor.

Thanks again to everybody for the support.

thanks sir!
