- ``--drm-osd-size=<[WxH]>``
- Sets the OSD OpenGL size to the specified size. OSD will then be upscaled

- several layers in high resolutions with a GPU which cannot handle it.
- Note : this option is only available with DRM atomic support.

+ Sets the size of the surface used on the draw plane. The surface will
+ then be upscaled to the current screen resolution. This option can be
+ useful when used together with the drmprime-drm hwdec interop at high
+ resolutions, as it allows scaling the draw plane (which in this case
