       Display *dpy;
       XvPortID port;
       Drawable d;
       GC gc;
       int vx, vy, dx, dy;
       unsigned int vw, vh;
       unsigned int dw, dh;


Arguments

       dpy            Specifies the connection to the X server.

       port           Defines the port from which to get the still.

       d              Defines the drawable into which the still is to be writ-
                      ten.  Pixmaps are currently not supported.

       gc             Defines the graphical context.  GC components are:  sub-
                      window-mode,  clip-x-origin,  clip-y-origin,  and  clip-
                      mask.

       vx,vy,vw,vh    Define the location and size of the video region  to  be
                      written.   vx  and vy define the upper-left pixel of the
                      region. vw and vh define the width and height,  in  pix-
                      els, of the region.

       dx,dy,dw,dh    Define  the  location and size of the destination region
                      into which the still image is written.  dx and dy define
                      the  upper-left  corner  of the region. dw and dh define
                      the width and height, in pixels, of the region.


Description

       XvPutStill(3) writes a single frame of video to a drawable.  The  posi-
       tion  and  size of the source (video) rectangle is specified by vx, vy,
       vw, and vh.  The position and size of the destination  (drawable)  rec-
       tangle is specified by dx, dy, dw, and dh.

       Video  data  is  clipped to the bounds of the video encoding, scaled to
       the requested drawable region size (or the closest size supported)  and
       clipped to the bounds of the drawable.

       If  the port is grabbed by another client, this request is ignored, and
       an XvVideoNotify event with detail XvBusy is generated  for  the  draw-
       able.   If the port is not receiving a valid video signal a VideoNotify
       event with detail XvHardError is generated for the drawable.
