           Summary: video does not display when using kaffeine in a
                    vncserver desktop KDE environment, viewed with
                    vncviewer
           Product: kaffeine
           Version: 1.2.2

I have a USB dvb S2 receiver. I use kaffeine to record films from Astra 1, 2
and 3, FTA as well as encoded.
The system is on the attic, I start a desktop with e.g, vncserver :10
I then connect remotely with vncviewer from tigervnc package.
the vncserver runs a kde4 desktop. I start kaffeine, which works fine.
However, Kaffeine does not display any video when started on this virtual
desktop. Not from live TV, but also not from mpg or avi from disk.
If using x11vnc, serving the actual hardware desktop, everything works fine.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start vncserver
2. connect with vncviewer from remote system
3. start kaffeine from konsole window and try to watch a video
4. kaffeine is not displaying any video. it suggests it does (play button
pressed, stop button active) but the indicator does not progress, and nothing
happens.  

text output from kaffeine in konsole window :  X windows bad parameter 3 

Actual Results:  
no video displaying

Expected Results:  
should have seen a video playing

Qt :4.8.6
KDE dev platform : 4.14.10
Kaffeine 1.2.2
