There is no such project/example in ELDK-5.0 as far as I know. The
DIU frame buffer driver supports up to 5 planes. Maybe these planes
could be used as separate frame buffers for multiple QTE server
processes rendering data to the planes, the resulting blended image
could be configured for displaying. But all this requires extending
the drivers to support such configurations. I don't know whether
anyone have already done something similar before.

Best regards,
Anatolij
