+// FIXME
+// Due to somewhat recent changes in XLib threading this had to be changed to a polling routine
+// Specifically XNextEvent acquires a global XLib lock, preventing any other XLib methods (including those used in the Xine library) from executing
+// Seems this is a known problem in other projects as well, with the only real option being a rewrite to use xcb natively (not sure if that is even possible here):
