  Are you using the Xv plugin or the V4L plugin in QtVision?  I'm only 
interested in the Xv plugin right now.  I think it's because I'm running in 
dualhead mode (twinview) that I don't get scaled video.  Do you have twinview 
enabled?

   Very strange that you get the crashes and I don't though.  There must be a 
library issue somewhere.  I'll work on that code another time and leave it 
disabled for now.
