im exporting a display across a network. specifically, mplayer is running on one computer, but displaying it across the network using X11's export functionality.Hi, urgrue:
it eats up a full-duplex 100mbit connection in one big gulp even though the video stream is only being run at 5 fps (mplayer option -fps 5).
i presume the bandwith is being eaten up by the exported display refreshing the screen more often than the 5fps, i mean on the X11 level.
so, is there any way to get X11's export feature to "calm down" and not try so hard?

Have you considered running mplayer locally?
