I have some trouble with a simple Xv test "testxv.c"
It start Xv, query for capabilities, create a shared xv image, and put it on a window.
First trouble is in the compilation: I must link statically the libXv.a because in my
XFree86 4.1.0 isn't a libXv.so
gcc -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11 -lXext -o testxv testxv.c /usr/X11R6/lib/libXv.a
Second trouble is that program have an exception
After the first xvshmputimage, I see for a moment a black window and then got a
BadAlloc error.
Why?
I try also with smaller windows, but nothing changes.
My svga adaptor is a Trident Cyberblade i7, and the queried capabilities report that
Xv accepts Scaling and Image functions.
So why it doesn't work?
Attached you'll find the source and the report of an execution on my system.
Thanks
Francesco
