  Yes, this was just mentioned on #livid and I'm typing in the code now.
I don't have a wheel mouse so I didn't think of it...

  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?

  This is a bit of a sore point.  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?  Comments?
