wm_available

        $video_info->wm_available() # 1 if Window Manager available

Is there a window manager available ?

blit_hw

        $video_info->blit_hw()

Are hardware to hardware blits accelerated ?

blit_hw_CC

        $video_info->blit_hw_CC()

Are hardware to hardware colorkey blits accelerated ?

blit_hw_A

        $video_info->blit_hw_A()

Are hardware to hardware alpha blits accelerated ?

blit_sw

        $video_info->blit_sw()

vfmt

        my $vd_pixel_format = $video_info->vfmt();

"SDL::PixelFormat" of the video device
