NAME

       XvGrabPort - lock port for exclusive use by client

SYNOPSIS

       #include <X11/extensions/Xvlib.h>

       int XvGrabPort(Display *dpy, XvPortID port, Time time);

ARGUMENTS

       dpy     Specifies the connection to the X server.

       port    Defines the port to be grabbed.

       time    Specifies the request timestamp.

DESCRIPTION

       XvGrabPort(3)  grabs  a port.  Once a client grabs a port, only that client can make video
       requests to that port.

       If the time is before the current  port  time,  the  XvGrabPort  request  is  ignored  and
       XvInvalidTime   is   returned.   If  the  port  is  already  grabbed  by  another  client,
       XvAlreadyGrabbed is returned. Otherwise it returns a status of Success.  The port time  is
       updated  when  the  following  requests  are  processed:  XvGrabPort(3),  XvUngrabPort(3),
       XvPutVideo(3), XvPutStill(3), XvGetVideo(3), XvGetStill(3).

       If the port is actively processing video for another client, the video is  preempted,  and
       an XvVideoNotify event with detail XvPreempted is generated for its drawable.

RETURN VALUES

       [Success]
               Returned if XvGrabPort(3) completed successfully.

       [XvInvalidTime]
               Returned if requested time is older than the current port time.

       [XvAlreadyGrabbed]
               Returned if the port is already grabbed by another client.

       [XvBadExtension]
               Returned if the Xv extension is unavailable.

       [XvBadAlloc]
               Returned if XvGrabPort(3) failed to allocate memory to process the request.

DIAGNOSTICS

       [XvBadPort]    Generated if the requested port does not exist.
