              toolbox/src/exampleCode/video/vidin README

    vidin is a simple Motif-hack implementing an OpenGL-based videoin.
          It has been tested on Indy VINO, O2 analog+digital, and
          Octane Divo.  It should work on nearly all SGI IRIX-based
	  video-hw. It allows one to resize the window to any
	  preferrred geometry.


          Profiling/pixie:

             pixie ./vidin

             AND additionally -- only on INDY -- run:
               pixie /usr/lib32/dmedia/video/vino.so
               mv vino.so.pxie vino.so.pixn32
               export _VL_DEBUG=1
               export _VL_ROOT=.

               ./vidin.pixie


    Be aware of the following things:

    * it's ugly and at some parts 'unusual' --- but well commented,
      as it was one of my early self-written programms for video-hacking.

    * the GUI framework is made with an ugly GUI-design-tool, which puts
      a lot of annoying GERMAN comments into the source code (vv.c)

    * check out with and without -DDEBUG in the Makefile
      (DEBUG output can be very annoying)

    * lots of MOTIF-gimmicks inside, like:
       - stop videoin on iconification (and restart on window-restore)
       - FREE resize to every size you like ! -  can become slooooow !

    * as it's OpenGL-based, it works over networks, but very very slowly !
      (quarter-sized it's quite usable)

    * X11 EventProcessing is not solved well. (GUI response is a bit sloow)
      (for this i have some ideas, but currently i'm too lazy for this)
