XvPutStill(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 from which to get the still.
d Defines the drawable into which the still is to be writ‐
ten. Pixmaps are currently not supported.
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 to be
written. vx and vy define the upper-left pixel of the
region. vw and vh define the width and height, in pix‐
els, of the region.
dx,dy,dw,dh Define the location and size of the destination region
into which the still image is written. dx and dy define
the upper-left corner of the region. dw and dh define
the width and height, in pixels, of the region.
DescriptionXvPutStill(3) writes a single frame of video to a drawable. The posi‐
tion and size of the source (video) rectangle is specified by vx, vy,
vw, and vh. The position and size of the destination (drawable) rec‐
tangle 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 the port is grabbed by another client, this request is ignored, and
an XvVideoNotify event with detail XvBusy is generated for the draw‐
able. If the port is not receiving a valid video signal a VideoNotify
event with detail XvHardError is generated for the drawable.
