I want to draw on top of a video stream. I wrote a QT application that shows the video stream as an xoverlay, whcih is overlayed over a QWidget object (More detail can be found in this post).

I tried to add a QPixmap to the QWidget, but, as I expected, the xoverlay (video stream) covered the QPixmap object, so you could not see the drawing bellow.

I found suggestions to use qt4-x11 library. Checked it out and it looks quit complicated.

Any other suggestions on how to overlay a QWidget over the xoverlay?
