       XvPortID base_id;
       unsigned long num_ports;
       char type;
       char *name;
       unsigned long num_formats;
       XvFormat *formats;
       unsigned long num_adaptors;
     } XvAdaptorInfo;

.EE
.IP \fIbase_id\fR 8
The resource ID of the first adaptor port.
.IP \fInum_ports\fR 8
The number of ports supported by the adaptor.
.IP \fItype\fR 8
A bit mask with the value XvInputMask asserted if the adaptor supports video
input, and value XvOutputMask asserted if the adaptor supports video output.
