"bmovl2 does the same kinds of things as bmovl, only it's designed with a little more smarts and a lot more performance (assembly optimized blending, receiving RGBA or YV12 bitmaps via shared memory, etc.)."
could this be used to show PyGame stuff over videos? getting bitmaps via some InterProcessCommunication? pipe?

bmovl2 allows you to overlay bitmaps with high performance compositing. How you get the bitmaps to bmovl2 is flexible enough (via pipe or shmem) and it is possible (and easy) to use pygame for this.

ah, didn't remember this question was lying around here -- yes, i actually tried this some weeks ago and worked nicely, used some code from freevo to make my own utility, might work on that soon to get it to production.
but will bmovl2 ever make it to mplayer? i asked that on mplayer-dev some time ago, after that testing, and have seen no replys..
