Has anyone ever run xawtv or any video grabber over VNC?
Putting aside why one would want to do this, I'd rather concentrate on
the technical issue involved.
Loading 'xawtv -nogl' gives me the following errors and a completely
black screen in xawtv:
Xlib: extension "XVideo" missing on display ":1.0",
Xlib: extension "XVideo" missing on display ":1.0",
Is it impossible to run it over VNC even over a LAN? I don't need
quality, just to be able to see the section that I want to capture to a
file. I suspect that VNC runs X with its own settings ( it didn't look
at my existing XF86Config nor ~/.xinitrc )
If anyone successfully ran a video grabber over another remote
graphical interface, I'm all ears.
