Hi
The instruction how to compile openchrome on Ubuntu is on webpage:
   https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenChrome

The reason why there is no Xvideo is:
  Xv Overlay rejected due to insufficient memory bandwidth.
Check is implemented in file :
  http://cgit.freedesktop.org/openchrome/xf86-video-openchrome/tree/src/via_xv.c
In method:
   DecideOverlaySupport

Please provide full Xorg.0.log.

Best Regards
Bartosz
