I decided to skip looking at the file, but here is a tip.  First, I will
assume that you want a player interface displayed allong with the animated
area.  One way to do this is to make you'r double buffer have smaller that
the screen resolution.  Blit it onto the top/bottom/left/right,  part of the
screen and then let your player interfave use the remaigning space.  Also,
you could call the player interface to modify the unused buffer before
blitting.
