+.TH XScreenSaver 1 "20-Mar-2005 (4.21)" "X Version 11"
+.SH NAME
+xscreensaver-getimage-video - put a video frame on the root window
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B xscreensaver-getimage-video
+[\-display \fIhost:display.screen\fP] [\--verbose] [\--stdout]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The \fIxscreensaver\-getimage\-video\fP program is a helper program
+for the xscreensaver hacks that manipulate images. Specifically, it
+is invoked by
+.BR xscreensaver\-getimage (1)
+as needed. This is not a user-level command.
+
+This program grabs a random frame of video from the system's video input,
+and then loads it on the root window. It does this by figuring out which
+frame-grabbing programs are installed on the system, and invoking the
+first one it finds. Then it runs
+.BR xscreensaver\-getimage\-file (1)
+to load that image onto the root window.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.I xscreensaver-getimage-video
+accepts the following options:
+.TP 4
+.B --verbose
+Print diagnostics.
+.TP 4
+.B --stdout
+Instead of loading the image onto the root window, write it to stdout
+as a PBM file.
