Are you clicking in the TV image itself, or hitting the double-size button on the GUI? Try the former if you're not. You may need DGA enabled in the X server for this to work (I forget). Click again to go back. I find that sometimes you need to full-size again and go back to recover the cursor, but this is probably server-specific... > 2. The output is dark.

As soon as you occlude a DGA display with a menu or another window, fxtv will switch to using shared memory images as opposed to just throwing trash through the menu, which is what it would otherwise do with DGA-enabled. I can tell the difference easily, because this pegs my X server within a few seconds... If there's a noticable difference in video quality (there is none on mine, simply update speed), then this may be significant, but I can't tell you why or what to do about it, sorry :) HTH.
