This is the relevant bit, Direct Rendering is not available.
This means two things:
 1/ I need to test for this in GetBestSupportedCodec(), which will make
    the failure less "Spectacular".
 2/ We need to find out why direct rendering is not working for you.
    What is your display variable set to? The command: echo \"$DISPLAY\"
    should display something like: ":0" or ":1" or ":0.2", etc
