.SH DESCRIPTION
The \fBfiasco_renderer_new()\fP function allocates and initializes a
renderer object which has to be used to convert an internal FIASCO
image object to one of the supported X11 formats. Currently, the FIASCO
image can be rendered to an X11 XImage of either 16, 24, or 32 bits
per pixel. Additional formats will be supported upon request.
Function \fBfiasco_renderer_render()\fP is used to convert the given
FIASCO image object to the specified format.
After all frames are rendered, the function
\fBfiasco_renderer_delete()\fP should be called to free temporarily
allocated memory and to discard the renderer object.
Note that the FIASCO renderer class is not restricted to X11 images: a
FIASCO image object can be converted to an image data array of the
form RGBRGB... by setting \fIred_mask\fP=0xff0000,
\fIgreen_mask\fP=0xff00, \fIblue_mask\fP=0xff, and \fIbpp\fP=24.
.SH ARGUMENTS
.TP
bpp
Determines the number of bits of a single pixel of the X11 XImage
structure (see XCreateImage(3)). If the XImage is already allocated
then the value XImage->bits_per_pixel should be used. Currently, 16,
24, and 32 bits per pixel are supported.
.TP
red_mask
Determines which bits of a pixel should be used for the red
component. If the XImage is already allocated then the value
XImage->red_mask should be used. E.g., if \fIbpp=16\fP and
\fIred_mask=0xf800\fP then each pixel is stored with two bytes. The
red component uses bits 11-15, the remaining green and blue components
use bits 0-10.
.TP
green_mask
Determines which bits of a pixel should be used for the green
component. If the XImage is already allocated then the value
XImage->green_mask should be used.
.TP
blue_mask
Determines which bits of a pixel should be used for the blue
component. If the XImage is already allocated then the value
XImage->blue_mask should be used.
.TP
data
A pointer to the image data. If the XImage is already allocated then
the value XImage->data should be used. This array has to be large
enough to hold the decoded image at the given size (geometry and bits
per pixel).
.TP
fiasco_image
This object represents the decoded image which has been
created by the FIASCO functions fiasco_decoder_get_frame(3) or
fiasco_image_new(3).
.SH RETURN VALUE
The function \fBfiasco_renderer_new()\fP returns a pointer to the newly
allocated renderer object. If an error has been caught, a NULL pointer
is returned.
The function \fBfiasco_renderer_render()\fP returns 1 if the image
has been successfully converted. Otherwise, the function returns 0.
In case of an error in one of the above functions, use the function
fiasco_get_error_message(3) to get a string with the last error
message of FIASCO.
