--- Comment #5 from Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+sams...@kernel.org> --- (In reply to Lukas Kahnert from comment #4) > I'm affected by this bug too and looked at the source and try to fix myself. > The problem is (I think) libVLC's API doesn't provide embedding video output > into wayland sufaces(I only found for X11,OSX and Windows). > In wayland sessions kaffeine runs with the wayland backend and tries to pass > the wayland surface to libVLC(which of course fails) and the result is this > bug. > > Possible workround is running kaffeine with "-platform xcb" to force the X11 > backend. > > As an experiment I made an minimal mpv-backend(which uses OpenGL-surfaces) > and it fixes the bug too. Could you please send the mpv-backend patches? It could be worth having a different backend on Kaffeine (although I think Gstreamer would likely give better results). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
