I'm not doing it for KDE 2.0
It takes more than 15 minutes, we need interfaces in idl and mpeglib
for this. We need tests for this and interfaces changes.

If you want to start with it, look at the class renderMachine,
there is the X11 wrapper, but be cautious.
The code in renderMachine is touched by the video thread
you have to consider races between the config calls and this thread.

We dont need re-parenting.At least not now.

Martin
