Syntax

       #include <X11/extensions/Xvlib.h>

       XvGetVideo(Display *dpy, XvPortID port, Drawable d, GC gc,
                  int vx, int vy, unsigned int vw, unsigned int vh,
                  int dx, int dy, unsigned int dw, unsigned int dh);


Arguments

       dpy            Specifies the connection to the X server.

       port           Defines the port to which video output is sent.

       d              Defines the drawable (window) from which video output is
                      to be obtained.

       gc             Defines the graphical context.  GC components are:  sub-
                      window-mode,  clip-x-origin,  clip-y-origin,  and  clip-
                      mask.

       vx,vy,vw,vh    Define the location and size of the video region  is  to
                      be written.  vx and vy define the x and y coordinates of
                      the upper-left corner of the video  region;  vw  and  vh
                      define  the  width  and  height, in pixels, of the video
                      region.

       dx,dy,dw,dh    Define the location of the source  drawable  from  which
                      the  video image is to be taken.  dx and dy define the x
                      and y coordinates of the upper-left corner of the  draw-
                      able  region;  dw and dh define the width and height, in
                      pixels, of the drawable region.


Description

       outputs video from a drawable.  The position and size of  the  destina-
       tion  rectangle  is  specified by vx, vy, vw, and vh.  The position and
       size of the source rectangle is specified by dx, dy, dw, and dh.

       Drawable data is clipped to the bounds of the drawable, scaled  to  the
       requested video region size (or the closest size supported) and clipped
       to the bounds of the video encoding.  The contents of  any  region  not
       updated with drawable data is undefined.

       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.
