|localhost:0.0 it is a lot happier, than if display is simply :0.0.
|So if you're sure you've got DGA enabled, and it's still not being detected,

You will not be able to get Direct Video (DGA) with Fxtv using
localhost:0.0. If the display is not connected to the X server using local
IPC (":..." or "unix:..."), fxtv disables Direct Video.
localhost:... forces the slower TCP stack X server communication similar to
displaying on remote displays. Fxtv does not investigate the hostname and
interfaces of the local machine to try and devine whether it is local or
remote. So <host>:... is always treated as remote.
