I'd like to, but I'm more interested in doing a menu system on the video frame so that it works on fbcon/DirectFB/my TV output. I'll then add mouse support for that on-frame menu. At least, that's the plan. Do you think a toolkit-based menu would be more useful? > Can you say something about how it renders on screen? I guess it uses > XShm and/or Xv?

Right now I use SDL as an API to XVideo, and fail if no hardware overlay surfaces are present. Doing a vidix driver will be trivial, but when you say 'to avoid tearing', what driver are you talking about? The XVideo drivers double buffer for every card I can think of, is there one where the vidix driver does better? I have a DirectFB output layer in tvtime CVS now that works with my TV output (http://vektor.theorem.ca/graphics/tvout/). No deinterlacing needed, of course, I'm field-correct, I just use it for the OSD etc. So the idea is definitely to support multiple output plugins. Thoughts?
