dpy Specifies the connection to the X server.

port Defines the port from which to get video.

subwindow-mode, clip-x-origin, clip-y-origin, and
clip-mask.

vx,vy,vw,vh Define the size and location of the source (video)
region to be written. vx and vy define the upper-left
pixel of the region. vw and vh define the width and
height, in pixels, of the region.

dx,dy,dw,dh Define the location and size of the destination
(drawable) region into which the video image is
written. dx and dy define the upper-left pixel of the
region. dw and dh define the width and height, in

DESCRIPTION

XvPutVideo writes video into a drawable. The position and size of
the source (video) rectangle is specified by vx, vy, vw, and vh. The
position and size of the destination (drawable) rectangle is
specified by dx, dy, dw, and dh.

Video data is clipped to the bounds of the video encoding, scaled to
the requested drawable region size (or the closest size supported)
and clipped to the bounds of the drawable.

If video is successfully initiated, an XvVideoNotify event with
detail XvStarted is generated for the drawable. If the port is
already in use, its video is preempted, and if the new drawable is
different than the old, an XvVideoNotify event with detail
XvPreempted is generated for the old drawable. If the port is
grabbed by another client, this request is ignored, and an
XvVideoNotify event with detail XvBusy is generated for the drawable.
If the port is not receiving a valid video signal or if the video
signal is interrupted while video is active a VideoNotify event with
detail XvHardError is generated for the drawable.
