GfxBoost - activates "QTV" mode for specific surfaces. This makes for example DirectDraw display smoother and: a bit slower or significantly faster, depending on how you look at it. It also seems to have a small effect on Direct3D/OpenGL.
This is a bit tricky! If you will benchmark it the result will be lower FPS. However, it will actually appear faster. This is because normally, not all frames are actually drawn on-screen, and the timing of the drawing can be so it appears nothing is being actually drawn at all. This does not happen when using GfxBoost - more is actually drawn to the screen, and smoother. So, from the application's point of view, it can do less per second, but from what you actually see on-screen, more happens!
Some good effects
* Manila2D is faster/smoother
* PointUI is smoother
* CorePlayer playback in DirectDraw mode is smoother *depends on version and settings*
* Titanium seems to be faster
* Diamond Hologram seems to be much faster
* Opera 9.5 seems to be much faster
* SPB Mobile Shell 3.0 seems to be smoother
* iGo 8 feels the love
* morphgear feels the love
* FinalBurn feels the love
* TouchFlo 3D feels the love
* XTRAKT feels the love
Devices reported this works with
* HTC Touch Cruise / Polaris
* HTC TyTN II / Kaiser
* HTC Touch Diamond / Victor
* HTC Touch Pro / Raphael / Fuze
* HTC Touch HD / Blackstone
* Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 / Venus Also works with, but not with as much effect:
Note: There are multiple files, the GfxBoost.cab is the (now old) 0.7, the other are the new 1.1 and 1.2 service versions. Note that in the service versions, the settings panel is under Settings -> System, not under Programs!
What's New in This Release:
· Some changes to fix issue of GfxBoost not showing up in control panel for some users
· Slight adjustment to loader code, hopefully works for more peoples now (always a guess, if not you can always use 0.7)
