libXv provides an X Window System client interface to the XVideo
extension to the X protocol.

The XVideo extension allows for accelerated drawing of videos. Hardware
adaptors are exposed to clients, which may draw in a number of colourspaces,
including YUV.
.
This package contains the development headers for the library found in
