XvSwitch widget has 1 purpose:

To assist you with choosing which display gets XVideo video overlay. It uses shell commands to accomplish the task.

See http://suslikcentral.blogspot.com/2005/12/video-and-tv-out-in-xorg-on-linux.html
for reasons for using this applet and general guidance on Xvideo issue on Linux.

Requirements:
For full, flawless functionality you need:

a) SuperKaramba version 0.39 This theme uses changeInterval function that was introduced recently.
b) One utility from list mentioned in the welcome screen:
- aticonfig - ships with ATI's fglrx drivers, or
- xvattr - an independently-developed application. http://freshmeat.net/projects/xvattr/
c) (the applet WILL work without it too) XvSwitch uses Kdialog for welsome and configuration prompts. If you have "complete" kde, you have Kdialog.

Requirements:
SuperKaramba

What's New in This Release:
1st completely functioning release
added config menu option for changing visual screen order.
