Err, I already use trunk, but I get this message in the frontend log:
Chromakeying not possible with this XVideo port.
And then the frontend still uses xv port 73, which is the textured
video XV adator. If I understand the above changeset right,
mythfrontend should skip the textured video adaptor, as it doesn't have
an XV_COLORKEY attribute.
