when the XV window is transformed by one of the compositing managers, it behaves strangely, the window becomes filled with one simple color. on radeon driver (at least r200 and r300)
Overlays display from a separate framebuffer so the compositer ends up blending with the colorkey rather than the overlaid data. Compositing will not work with overlay based Xv adapters. You'd need to implement blitter or texture based adapters to have composite work properly with Xv. There is code in the the ati kdrive driver for implementing this on r128-r200.
Yes, that is what I heard on the beryl bugtracker, texture based overlay would probably be the solution. Sounds like this is pretty hard to implement? Tho if it already is implemented in the kdrive r200 code, my guess is that it shouldn't be that hard (please bash me if I'm wrong). r300 does base on r200, doesn't it? Are there any plans to implement this?

The kdrive code could be ported to support r128-r200, but r300 would require code from scratch as the 3d engine is fairly different. I don't know that anyone is working on support at the moment. Another option could be to use AIGLX to create a YUV texture rather than using an Xv adapter.
I thought to have posted here months ago, but I discovered that I had wrote my bug-report about this in the wrong place... Exactly here: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7370#c14 Give a look to this screenshot too to understand our problem: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=7797&action=view
Textured video is implemented now, is this still an issue?
