I'm not sure you can get much faster than that with plain gtk :-( have you tried running: gtk+-2.4.x/tests/testrgb I get around 100 mega pixels per second draw speed for the fastest case (2.5 Ghz xeon, nvidia graphics card), it should be able to do 900 x 600 at video rates pretty easily. For more speed, I think you need to only update part of the display, or to use another drawing technique. mplayer has a mode where it decodes the video to an OpenGL texture, then uses an OGL window to draw that on the screen. Of course if you do this, your user will not be able to work over the network and will have to have OGL hardware installed and woirking.
