Most video display apps and definitly the ones using video overlaying or direct-draw or other accelleration (so that'll bee all) do NOT use the vidoe memory.

The current list is setup to reply (by default) to the sender, not to the list. Hence, answers get to the sender and not to the list. Which leaves the list archive with questions but no answers. Those who ask questions should be so kind to send a summary of the answers received and the list should add a message on this in the signature... Challenge to those who want/like/need to see a video trough vnc: write a dedicated vnc-server that just displays the video stream in one of the vnc formats. Formats are described in the vnc documentation. up to a point, you can see both vnc and video as streaming video. To make it easy: it can be a read-only vncserver for a start and I don't ask audio since vnc has no audio.....
