Not sure how xvideo works, but it would be cool to have a program
similar to how lsof lists open devices, that lists what programs are
using xvideo (however it works)
Along that note, another rant: A lot of the new GUI's when you try to
eject a device that is being used by a program just say "cannot eject, a
program is using it" I would have thought a grep through lsof could
actually advise the user what programs where using the device... Though
I know here's not the place to raise that issue.
Not _that_ particular issue, but it is a good example of what we would
like Cinelerra to do, if it was possible. For example, tell the user:
"I can not use Xv to display video
The program (name, pid) is using it.
Stop that program, or change the display mode in Preferences|Playback"
Or if we really want to serve the alternatives on a silver platter,
provide two buttons:
[kill (program)] [switch to X11]
While we're at it, we could use a "kill artsd" button, too... ;-)
