Strange DirectDraw Error

Did your app get an exclusive hold on the video?

Can anyone tell me what the DirectDraw error DDERR_SURFACEISOBSCURED means. The Microsoft explanation ("Access to the surface is refused because the surface is obscured.") isn't very helpful! I'm getting this error from a Blt/BltFast call. This error isn't even listed as a return value for either call.

Thanks

Yes, the app was running in exclusive mode.
