Switching between video modes

SDL Development
1

Hello,

If I want to switch from one video mode (still set by a
call to SDL_SetVideoMode) to another, do I have to reset
the video subsystem before the new call to
SDL_SetVideoMode ?

Thank you in advance.–

It’s just a way of saying ‘no’ :^) So, it seems they are saying that
you do not have to reset the video subsystem before a new call to
SDL_SetVideoMode.
