Hello!I have just installed VUE infinite.I have a Ati Radeon 8500 video card.With Vue professional, my card was not ok for Open Gl.But now with Infinite version, when i use test in options,Vue Infinite say that my video card is ok for open Gl display.So my question:is open gl display use lots of ressources and ,if yes ,is it better not use it?I know that Vue use much memory(i have 2 megs DDR ram but......) and i don't want use it much for display .Thanks

If it works use it, the display will be much faster and responsive if it's being hardware accelerated via your Radeon card, instead of being emulated via software. OpenGL will be loaded in your system regardless, so don't worry about the memory resources. In fact if anything, I think using hardware OpenGL will make more use of your graphics card RAM instead of system RAM.

When you start to run out of system resources, Vue shuts down OpenGL to save resources. Happened to me the other night. So that is something to keep in mind. I have 2 Megs DDR ram also. XFX nVIDIA 6800 GT video card.
