Yes, unfortunately it is a hard requirement for me to render the video into my own window. I have used the -wid option for early development but can't for the final working version. So, I think that I need to develop my own backend. Does it need to work across multiple platforms? If I use a shared memory region, could it have a 'well known name' that other apps could access? Or, do I need to pass in a name? The name question also applies to a synchronization event. Alternatively, I could pass in the XID of a Pixbuf or Pixmap (Pixbuf preferred but I don't know if it would work). For Windows that could be a HBitmap. Which approach would fit the current architecture and implementation philosophy better? If I do a reasonable implementation, is it likely that this would be picked up into mplayer? If so, how long does that usually take?
