Libxv provides an x window system client interface to the xvideo extension to the x protocol.

the xvideo extension allows for accelerated drawing of videos. hardware adaptors are exposed to clients, which may draw in a number of colourspaces, including yuv.

this package contains the debug versions of the library found in libxv1. non-developers likely have little use for this package.
