Newest Catalyst drivers & Radeon 8500 & Video overlay & 32 bits -> does not work

[Christian Kaiser]

"Older" catalyst drivers (from September) do support Overlay mode in 32
bits, the newest ones (downloaded yesterday) don't. And in 16 bit mode, they
work, but the system load is heavier (about 5-10 percent more CPU load). Did
anyone have the same experience?

Nope. Works just like before on my 9500/9700.

Thanks.

Let's see whether ATI support will give me some feedback.
