I am having the same issue. Ubuntu 17.10 with VLC. When seeking an mp4 file, at some point, always different, the video freezes, the mouse cursor freezes and the PC become irresponsible. I sometimes am able to recover by switching PC to Airplane mode. Don't know why but it unfreeze it. But only sometimes.
I did try with the different video output but the issue keeps happening. Ultimately I switched back to the default video player cause I don't want to reboot my system every time I want to skip recaps. My video card is Nvidia for what is worth. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574354 Title: playing .mp4 in VLC freezes machine To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa/+bug/1574354/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
