I have a tiny program which displays a live video image with an overlay. It's in Python for gtk2, but gtk3 is (almost) the same, except for the drawing model for the overlay. It runs at about 50fps with not too much CPU load on my laptop. https://github.com/jcupitt/rtiacquire/blob/master/rtiacquire/preview.py The overlay is a crop box you can drag about and resize. Use GtkImage to display the image data. When a new frame comes in, decode to a RGB buffer, wrap it up as a GdkPixbuf, and set that pixbuf as the data for the GtkImage. https://developer.gnome.org/gdk-pixbuf/stable/gdk-pixbuf-Image-Data-in-Memory.html#gdk-pixbuf-new-from-data https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/GtkImage.html#gtk-image-set-from-pixbuf To draw the overlay, attach to expose-event with connect_after and just draw. Your code will run after the GtkImage has painted the image background, so draw anything you like and it'll float on top of the image.
