       screen savers

SYNOPSIS
       xscreensaver-getimage-video [--verbose]

DESCRIPTION
       The xscreensaver-getimage-video program is a  helper  program  for  the
       xscreensaver hacks that manipulate images.  Specifically, it is invoked
       by xscreensaver-getimage(6) as needed.

       It  grabs  a  single  frame of video from the system's video input to a
       file, and prints	the name of that file on stdout. It does this by  fig-
       uring  out  which  frame-grabbing programs are installed	on the system,
       and invoking the	first one it finds.

OPTIONS
       xscreensaver-getimage-video accepts the following options:

       --verbose
	   Print diagnostics.
