The bug is that the -timeout [seconds] option (eg: xvidtune -timeout 5) doesn't work. If entered, the program will simply exit after displaying possible options. The problem is in the line:

if (argc > 1) {

(line # 1,556 in xfree86 version 4.3.0, in programs/xvidtune/xvidtune.c)

If the line is changed to:

if (argc > 1 && argc != 3) {

then the timeout setting works. (Changing the amount of time needed for the "test" button to automatically exit.)

I have committed something similar to this change and credited it to "Evil Mr Henry" ;-)

Thanks for reporting the problem.

Marc.
