perhaps it would be better to just write opengl output plugins for
video applications that used MESA_ycbcr_texture.

I think so, e.g. you lose direct rendering by putting this into the server.


I'm sure that MPlayer or Xine actually support an OpenGL output
plugin already. Chances are it's Xine, but I haven't touched it in
6 months, maybe they removed it?

All I remember is that it was terribly slow to output to a YUV or
RGB texture and use OpenGL to display it. Whatever app was playing
the movie etc. did a lot better when it used plain ordinary writing
to pixmaps and blitting them to the window.

That can probably be fixed with little effort. There have been a few people using DRI drivers with video in mind, so the paths to do this efficiently are looking a bit clearer these days.
