+ Calls ``DwmFlush`` after swapping buffers on Windows (default: auto).
It also sets ``SwapInterval(0)`` to ignore the OpenGL timing. Values
are: no (disabled), windowed (only in windowed mode), yes (also in
full screen).

This may help getting more consistent frame intervals, especially with
high-fps clips - which might also reduce dropped frames. Typically a
value of ``windowed`` should be enough since full screen may bypass the
