[MPlayer-users] -wid option / X11 window

[Samuel Kvasnica]

Hello,
could somebody give me a hint how to set up correctly a window if I want 
to use mplayer (1.0pre2) with the -wid option.
If I create a window a a child of root window, -vo x11 works but with 
some warnings about mouse buttons etc
and -vo xmga exits with an error.
If I apply XSelectInput(mw->x11Display(),mw->winId(),0); warnings with 
-vo x11  are away and
-vo xmga doesn't exit anymore however there's no picture. I've looked 
into vo_xmga.c and found out that
there's XUnmapWindow( mDisplay,vo_window );. If I add XMapWindow(...) 
there or comment out XUnmap
I get the  picture even with -vo xmga. Is this a bug or I missed something ?

Now the second part: I want to send output of mplayer in a window which 
is child of another window, not root.
I don't get any picture in this case, not even with -vo x11. However if 
I apply XSelectInput(display,window,0);
to the parent window picture appears. Why ? I also noticed that after 
applyig XSelectInput video doesn't resize/move
anymore when moving the parent window.

Any hints ?

thanks,
Sam
