Fixes made in this update:

By Component:

Component:  CoreOS

• 080911_KB957315 - NULL termination character may get ignored when user specifies -1 as the input string length.

Component:  Display

• 080925_KB956505 - GPE::EmulatedBlt_Bilinear may not reset the initial step value before each horizontal line stretch. This causes some visual errors in the resulting bitmap.

The file(s) with the new source code changes for this component can be found in the directory %_WINCEROOT%\:

     public\common\oak\drivers\display\gpe\swblt.cpp

Component:  Network Projector

080919_KB956842 - Windows Vista's Network Projector is not able to connect to Windows Embedded CE 6.0 Network Projector device if none of the resolutions that it supports are part of capability blob. This update allows optional customization registry, for example, 800x600 to be send along in capability blob. This makes Network Projector connection succeed, however it does not change the resolution of the Windows Embedded CE 6.0 Network Projector.  

 

Registry entries need to be added to support OEM request for custom entries in capabilities blob.
OEM can specify 1-3 resolutions using the following:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\PictorService\OEMCustomization]

"ScreenWidth1" = dword:XX
"ScreenHeight1" = dword:YY
"ScreenWidth2" = dword:XX
"ScreenHeight2" = dword:YY
"ScreenWidth3" = dword:XX
"ScreenHeight3" = dword:YY

Where the dword XX and YY are numbers in hex.

 

For example:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\PictorService\OEMCustomization]
"ScreenWidth1" = dword:320
"ScreenHeight1" = dword:258

Component:  Redirector

• 080911_KB957428 - Redir component may not always use Server Local time for file modification timestamp.

                [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Redir]

                "UseServerLocTimeAsFileModTimeStamp"=dword:1

Component:  TimeSVC
