I am working in a project which create Java 3D Desktop (see
lg3d.dev.java.net), we have made some modification to existing Xserver;
adding additional Extension like (XFixes, XComposite and XDamage). We use
those new Extension to redirect all Drawing operations to a backing store
pixmap, then we use this pixmap to rendered it in 3D Java Scencegraph.
XComposite redirect a window to backing store pixmap and XDamage notify us
when the pixmap is changed.
This approach does not work with Xvideo, Redirect of the window work,
because I can open mplayer and see the initial video window and hear the
sound of video, but I don't receive a damage for it, so I can not see any
video.

You could help with describing how you use Xvideo extension, because you
know it better than me. I would like to redirect all video operation to that
backing store pixmap, so that I receive damage events.
Note that with X11 video drive I can play movie in mplayer inside LG3D (3D
Java Desktop). X11 does not use any extension from Xserver!!
