Chromakey OSD is not compatible with the newest nVidia cards that
always use textures for XvMC. That being said, I don't know if the
"GeForce 6800GT" is one of these cards, but making sure that you
have the right Option "XvmcUsesTextures" in your xorg.conf and that
the Xorg.0.log doesn't say anything about ignoring it would be a 
good start.
