On a related note, I have an FX-5200 video card
(/sbin/lspci|grep 5200
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX 5200] (rev a1)

but don't see the XV_ATTR attribte when I type xvinfo at the command line.

The command "xvattr -a XV_COLORKEY -v 66048" displays this:

Found Xv 2.2
X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
Major opcode of failed request:  145 (XVideo)
Minor opcode of failed request:  13 ()
Serial number of failed request:  11
Current serial number in output stream:  12

Why don't  I have that attribute? Is there a config option to enable it?
