 |Hmm, when I do full-size fxtv coredumps with a SIGSEG when I hit the
 |snap button. In fact it dies very easy, just move another window
 |over it and WHAM fxtv dies with a SIGSEG....

That's interesting.  I'd love to see a stack trace from an Fxtv-0.46
compiled with debug.  

In fact, mail me a gziped core file and your executable.  My INBOX is big
enough 8^)  Also, please mention video card, XServer vendor/version/server,
and xdpyinfo output.  Thanks!

I'm not surprised that "snap" and "window occlusion" both produce the same
behavior.  Both result in switching Fxtv to PCIcapture-to-memory-to-XImage
conversion (as opposed to PCIcapture-to-framebuffer).  The puzzler is why
this behavior involves a core dump.

I bet you'll see the same core-dump behavior if you run "fxtv -disableDirectV" 
to force XImage conversion from the get-go.

Thanks,

Randall
