People, right now I am following the sigcomm session which is being transmitted with vat&vic ... I must say that I am _not_ impressed since 99% of the times vic is used to show slides and there is all kind of artifacts in acquiring slides using the camera. Much better results, at a fraction of the bandwidth, could be achieved by using an X11 grabber as it was available in nv. Some time ago I started writing an x11 grabber for vic (http://www.iet.unipi.it/~luigi/grabber-x11.cc), but had to give up due to my miserable knowledge of X11 and C++ . The code I have is partly working but it has some rough edges and probably a lot of bugs and inefficiencies. Would someone like to help in cleaning up the above code (which is partly working) ?
