Anyway, someone, after trying out my hacking way, found out that "page flow" and "full screen" can be achieved with the DR800's original uds. All you need to do is setting the property in the SQLite database.

So now the proper and legal way to enable "page flow" should be modifying dr800's popupmenu, which is open sourced, so that it provides an icon/menu entry to enable/disable the "page flow" mode, and call SQLite, which is open sourced too, to make needed change.

I am not sure if I will have the time to modify the popupmenu these days, but anyone interested can go ahead.
Under all this secret I presume code is already included in the DR800 binary, but there is some code checking at runtime (popupmenu? some file including model version?) that shows one behaviour or the other.

Anyway, just speculations. If I have time I'll try to do a binary diff between both versions in a few days. Uhmmm, is there strace compiled into qemu?...
