Description-en: X11 Video extension library
libXvMC provides an X Window System client interface to the
XVideo-MotionCompensation extension to the X protocol.
.
The XVideo-MotionCompensation extension allows for further accelerated drawing
of videos. Video data may be sent at earlier stages of the decoding pipeline
than raw YUV data. At the moment, driver support for XvMC is poor to
non-existent.
