           Summary: xvimagesink fails to handle BadAllocs caused by creation
                    of over-size overlays.
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: 0.10.4
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: critical
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gstreamer (core)
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
        ReportedBy: scott_gnome at scott.tranzoa.net

   GNOME milestone: Unspecified


Steps to reproduce:
1. Find a machine using Xorg's i810 driver.
2. Try to create an xvimagesink oversize for your current resolution.

For example, my current resolution is 1024x768. So I run:

  gst-launch-0.10 videotestsrc ! video/x-raw-yuv,height=1024,width=768 !
xvimagesink



Stack trace:
$ gst-launch-0.10 videotestsrc ! video/x-raw-yuv,height=1024,width=768 !
xvimagesink
Setting pipeline to PAUSED ...
Pipeline is PREROLLING ...
X Error of failed request:  BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  141 (XVideo)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  19 ()
  Serial number of failed request:  49
  Current serial number in output stream:  50


Other information:
This issue occurs on only some drivers I have tested. nVidia cards it doesn't
occur on, and some ATI cards it doesn't occur on. Almost all upstream Xorg
drivers I have tested it does occur on.
