Last I heard, xhost and X forwarding over ssh were unrelated. You
only need one or the other, and I would recommend using the ssh
solution, as xhost is rather easily exploitable. (More practically,
if you've got the spare CPU cycles available, you can have ssh
compress the data stream, which is a Good Thing if you run into
problems with the amount of network bandwidth used by your video
stream.)
