.TH "SDL_VideoModeOK" "3" "Tue 11 Sep 2001, 23:01" "SDL" "SDL API Reference" 
.SH "NAME"
SDL_VideoModeOK \- Check to see if a particular video mode is supported\&.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.PP
\fB#include "SDL\&.h"
.sp
\fBint \fBSDL_VideoModeOK\fP\fR(\fBint width, int height, int bpp, Uint32 flags\fR);
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBSDL_VideoModeOK\fP returns \fB0\fR if the requested mode is not supported under any bit depth, or returns the bits-per-pixel of the closest available mode with the given width, height and requested \fIsurface\fR flags (see \fI\fBSDL_SetVideoMode\fP\fR)\&.
.PP
The bits-per-pixel value returned is only a suggested mode\&. You can usually request and bpp you want when \fIsetting\fR the video mode and SDL will emulate that color depth with a shadow video surface\&.
.PP
The arguments to \fBSDL_VideoModeOK\fP are the same ones you would pass to \fISDL_SetVideoMode\fR
.SH "EXAMPLE"
.PP
.nf
\f(CWSDL_Surface *screen;
Uint32 bpp;

\&.
printf("Checking mode 640x480@16bpp\&.
");
bpp=SDL_VideoModeOK(640, 480, 16, SDL_HWSURFACE);

if(!bpp){
  printf("Mode not available\&.
");
  exit(-1);
}

printf("SDL Recommends 640x480@%dbpp\&.
", bpp);
screen=SDL_SetVideoMode(640, 480, bpp, SDL_HWSURFACE);
