Some time ago i read a trick that gave another screen than the first one
the "Video Overlay" (which seems to be required for XvMC):
You have to swap the screen number in the "Device" section, i.e. set
"Screen 1" in "nvidia0" and "Screen 0" in "nvidia1".
Maybe you have to remove the screen ids from your server layout
after that ('Screen "screen0"' instead of 'Screen 0 "screen0"').
The order of the screens in the ServerLayout stays the same (so VGA will
still be :0.0), but now DVI should have the overlay and thus work with
XvMC. :-)
Works for me with a GeForce 4 Go and the internal TFT + tv out.
You can test it with:
| greywolf@matrix:~$ xvinfo | grep -A1 screen
| screen #0
| Adaptor #0: "NV17 Video Texture"
| --
| screen #1
| Adaptor #0: "NV17 Video Overlay"
