SDL 2.x recently accepted patches to enable OpenGL ES 2 support via Google's ANGLE library. The thought is to try to eventually merge SDL/WinRT's OpenGL code with SDL-official's.

As it turns out, it was impossible to render a texture flipped diagonally (both vertically and horizontally) with one RenderCopyEx call.
With help from #SDL @ freenode, we came up with a fix.
To enable the Debug Layer, set the hint, SDL_HINT_RENDER_DIRECT3D11_DEBUG to '1'.
The Debug Layer will be turned off by default, both in Release and Debug builds (of SDL).

The problem in question is caused by changeset 7771 (http://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/4434498bf4b9 / https://bugzilla.libsdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2121)
The redefinition of __inline__ (introduced by the addition of begin_code.h:128's "|| __STRICT_ANSI__") results in mingw's gcc throwing multiple
warning: always_inline function might not be inlinable [-Wattributes]
as well as a whole bunch of redefinitions of mingw internals which break linking of projects including the SDL2 headers.

I am running Ubuntu 12.04 (GL version 1.4 Mesa 8.0.4) , and on drawing a set of lines through the renderer through SDL_RenderDrawLines() (looped or not) or SDL_RenderDrawRect() I notice a pixel missing. For RenderDrawLines() it seems to be the second point in the sequence; for RenderDrawRect() it is the lower-right. This can be fixed by specifying SDL_RenderDrawPoint(s), but wouldn't it be easier to specify each pixel in a GL_POINTS glBegin/End loop in the OpenGL code, just to make sure?
I also ran the same program on Android; the rendering seemed to be correct, which uses glDrawArrays.

Overview:
SDL_RenderClear is only clearing part of a texture when it is the render target and a different size than the screen.
Steps to Reproduce:
1) This only occurs with the render driver set to direct3d, so: SDL_SetHint(SDL_HINT_RENDER_DRIVER,"direct3d")
Also, my window was 1280x720.
2) Create a texture for a render target with a resolution of 1024x1024:
texture=SDL_CreateTexture(main_window.renderer,SDL_PIXELFORMAT_RGBA8888,SDL_TEXTUREACCESS_TARGET,1024,1024);
SDL_SetTextureBlendMode(texture,SDL_BLENDMODE_BLEND);
3) Target the texture for rendering: SDL_SetRenderTarget(main_window.renderer,texture);
4) Set the draw color to whatever you want (problem occurs with both 0,0,0,0 and 0,0,0,255 among others) and then clear the render target:
SDL_SetRenderDrawColor(main_window.renderer,0,0,0,0);
SDL_RenderClear(main_window.renderer);
Actual Results:
Only about the top 3/4s of the texture gets cleared on calling SDL_RenderClear. The bottom 1/4 or so does not clear.
Expected Results:
Entire render target should be cleared.
This change should allow apps to render correctly in Portrait mode, at minimum,
Support for orientation changes is pending.
Thanks to Pierre-Yves for assistance!
This is part of an overall effort to use the name, "WinRT", rather than "WindowsRT" (or "Windows RT"), as the shorthand name often seems to mean something different than the longhand name. (WinRT is an API, Windows RT is a product name)
From Sythical:
Hello, I've created a simple SDL2 application which draws a texture on the screen. The problem I'm having is that if I launch another program which loads the UAC popup or if I lock my PC and then login again, the application stops drawing the texture. I tried adding SDL_Delay(10000) after SDL_RenderPresent(renderer). This made the texture stay on the screen for a little bit but the texture wasn't drawn again after the delay. Here's my code:
#include "SDL.h"
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
SDL_Renderer *renderer;
SDL_Window *window;
SDL_Surface *surface;
SDL_Texture *rect_texture;
SDL_Event main_event;
SDL_Rect rect_data;
int enable_vsync = 1;
if(SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_VIDEO) < 0) return 1;
window = SDL_CreateWindow("SDL2 Application", SDL_WINDOWPOS_CENTERED, SDL_WINDOWPOS_CENTERED, 600, 600, SDL_WINDOW_RESIZABLE);
renderer = SDL_CreateRenderer(window, -1, enable_vsync ? SDL_RENDERER_ACCELERATED | SDL_RENDERER_PRESENTVSYNC : SDL_RENDERER_ACCELERATED);
SDL_SetRenderDrawColor(renderer, 20, 20, 30, 255);
surface = SDL_LoadBMP("icon.bmp");
rect_texture = SDL_CreateTextureFromSurface(renderer, surface);
rect_data.w = 32; rect_data.h = 32;
rect_data.x = 300; rect_data.y = 300;
while(main_event.type != SDL_QUIT)
{
SDL_PollEvent(&main_event);
SDL_RenderClear(renderer);
SDL_RenderCopy(renderer, rect_texture, NULL, &rect_data);
SDL_RenderPresent(renderer);
}
SDL_DestroyTexture(rect_texture);
SDL_DestroyRenderer(renderer);
SDL_DestroyWindow(window);
SDL_Quit();
return 0;
}
Anisotropic filtering is meant to be used for textures at a stark
angle, not perpendicular to the camera.

SDL_RenderCopy clips dstrect against the viewport. Then it adjusts the
srcrect by "appropriate" amount of pixels. This amount is actually
wrong, quite a lot, because of the rounding errors introduced in the "*
factor / factor" scale.
real_srcrect.x += (deltax * real_srcrect.w) / dstrect->w;
real_srcrect.w += (deltaw * real_srcrect.w) / dstrect->w;
For example:
I have a 32 x 32 srcrect and a 64 x 64 dstrect. So far the
stretching is done perfectly, by a factor of 2.
Now, consider dstrect being clipped against the viewport, so it becomes
56 x 64. Now, the factor becomes 1.75 ! The adjustment to "srcrect"
can't handle this, cause srcrect is in integers.
And thus we now have incorrect mapping, with dstrect not being in the
right proportion to srcrect.
The problem is most evident when upscaling stuff, like displaying a 8x8
texture with a zoom of 64 or more, and moving it beyond the corners of
the screen. It *looks* really really bad.
Note: RenderCopyEX does no such clipping, and is right to do so. The fix would be to remove any such clipping from RenderCopy too. And then fix the software renderer, because it has the same fault, independently of RenderCopy.
[attached patch]
this leaves Software Renderer buggy, as it does it's own clipping later on
