Public bug reported:
Hardware/Configuration:
Ubuntu 8.04 AMD64
HP dv2000 laptop
Intel GM965/GL960 Integrated graphics
When playing a video none of the compiz effects display correctly. When
the video is scaled, opacified, distorted, or shadowed over ugly static
black or blue is displayed where the effect should be. When another
video is opened (even another instance of the same video) it displays
all the effects perfectly. In fact is is absolutely gorgeous - the
video is skewed for angles when rotating the cube, and even reflects
correctly (and skewed even), when that feature is turned on. It
opacifies and shadows too!
I can close the first video and the second one continues to display
effects correctly. If I close both and reopen one the bug reappears.
This was cross tested with VLC and the built in Movie Player. By cross-
tested I mean opening two instances of vlc, an instance of vlc then
movie player, and vice versa. Everytime the first video does render
effects correctly whereas the second does. Subsequent videos also
display effects correctly.
Man I am impressed though - I have a ton of plugins running, and they all work
seamlessly and quickly on the crappy built in video card. The
reflection/scaling/skewing/opacifying of the video is especially impressive.
Good work guys!
