The display hardware can only display the video overlay on one CRTC at a time. You can choose which CRTC to display it on via the XV_CRTC XVideo attribute, or at least some applications allow using the textured video adaptor (which doesn't have this restriction) via the adaptor/port number as shown by xvinfo. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | http://www.vmware.com Libre software enthusiast | Debian, X and DRI developer -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
