The limit is based on the documentation I had available when writing the driver, and on the fact that exceeding those documented overlay limits would result in a hardware lockup. It is possible that newer hardware revisions have a different physical limit. You'd need to rebuild the driver with the limit check removed/changed and see if it locks up or not when bring up an XVideo window.
Great! I'll download the source, find the limit check, modify it, rebuild and try again then. Since video shows fine in the same resolution under Windows XP, then hopefully that means it'll work for X11 as well. The Windows driver came on a separate CDROM with the computer.
Are you absolutely sure Windows is using the overlay and is not blitting the YUV data into the framebuffer instead?
