Video driver glitch/crash with VLC #1028
Comments
Because with nvidia driver it's unusable. |
Can't really say... it is likely that the driver. I'm not very good at it.
And here is the result: X does not crash, but the glitch exists until processes are killed. |
I'll try it |
when you get an "entire screen glitch" go to one of free ttys (ctrl+alt+f2-6), login and do |
ok, i'll try it. UPD:I installed nvidia 525 driver. |
have you made any changes to the vlc configuration? also, does it happen to all videos? if you download the attached video in the #979 (it’s the only video that i have on my pc :D) and play it with vlc, is it glitched as well? |
Yes, you're right, it's not an X crash but the driver. Here is the last 50 lines of dmesg log. I ran vlc few times and the log was not changed/updated. So it is not reflect this driver issue: dmesg | tail -n 50
VLC output with new nvidia driver: $ vlc video.mp4 & (sleep 20s && pkill picom; pkill -9 -f vlc)
|
No, i can't remember the last time i ran VLC. |
Yes. It happens even without video. It looks like vlc qt gui related issue... Or gl |
UPDI tested some apps and:
and so on edl backend + intel graphics driver - works fine |
I found the cause of the VLC malfunction.
which leads in particular to vlc+picom driver glitches. Some QT applications open with window sizes many times the size of the screen. |
on glx backend i got X crash if trying to open VLC player.
Entire screen glitch
Platform

Other details
with
cvlc
(without QT GUI) works fineFor
xrender
backend:picom --config=/dev/null --legacy-backends --backend=xrender
X running ok, no crash.
But VLC video playback is corrupted (glitch, no video playback) until i kill the picom process:
vlc video.mp4
For
egl
backend:picom --config=/dev/null --backend=egl
vlc playback works but egl is unusable in my case. Screen doesn't refreshing.
I think it's a QT related issue
I have an issue with vlc itself: https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=161994&p=535673#p535673
