Hi,
I am trying to build an X11_to_MPEG converter
using xmx (www.cs.brown.edu/software/xmx/,
which was part of Debian back in 1999,
now compiled from source.)
to multiplex the X11 Desktop to both
the local :0 Display, as well as a Xvfb :2 Display.
The Xvfb buffer acts as source for xwd_to_<somemovieformat>.
(If anyone has an out-of-the-box solution
for this I am also fine :-)
For XMX to work both Displays need to have *exactly*
the same visual, otherwise it complains and exits.
(This makes sense, since xmx does not want to interpret
and map the X11 protocol between different visuals)
Looking at xdpyinfo output the only difference
seems to be the "red, green, blue masks", which
are in different order, adressing different bits.
This prevents multiplexing the same data to the two X servers.
See attached xdpyinfo output.
Any idea where the difference comes from,
and if it is on purpose ?
I am using the 4.1.0 Packages from testing.
Yours,
Steffen
