Public bug reported: Opening a video (any sort eg .wmv, .mov) with the "videos" app causes the audio stream to play but the screen goes blank. Space stop-starts as normal. on pressing Alt-f4 the app quits and the screen display returns.
Starting up the "videos" app from Launcher blanks screen until alt-f4 is pressed [App "Cheese" also blanks the screen, but I don't think alt-f4 works, just crashes. I will report separately] Sorry can't be more specific about package-names etc - the screen is blank!
