Public bug reported: [Description]
During video playback a very disturbing bug occurs: the video area is always on top every other window. The video also won't scale when changing the size of the player window. This is not player-specific as both SMPlayer and VLC are affected. The bug doesn't register on screenshots so I had to take a photo of the screen to illustrate: https://ubuntu- mate.community/uploads/default/original/2X/c/ceba93ba6a7025cba79779bd92288cab92e09f3c.jpg ouroumov@Bloc:~/Desktop$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS Release: 16.04 ouroumov@Bloc:~/Desktop$ apt-cache policy xorg xserver-xorg-video-intel xorg: Installed: 1:7.7+13ubuntu3 Candidate: 1:7.7+13ubuntu3 Version table: *** 1:7.7+13ubuntu3 500 500 http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status xserver-xorg-video-intel: Installed: 2:2.99.917+git20160325-1ubuntu1.1 Candidate: 2:2.99.917+git20160325-1ubuntu1.1 Version table: *** 2:2.99.917+git20160325-1ubuntu1.1 500 500 http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-updates/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 2:2.99.917+git20160325-1ubuntu1 500 500 http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages ouroumov@Bloc:~/Desktop$ inxi -MCSG System: Host: Bloc Kernel: 4.4.0-36-generic x86_64 (64 bit) Desktop: MATE 1.12.1 Distro: Ubuntu 16.04 xenial Machine: System: Dell product: OptiPlex 7440 AIO Mobo: Dell model: 0X2MKR v: A00 Bios: Dell v: 1.4.7 date: 03/15/2016 CPU: Quad core Intel Core i5-6500 (-MCP-) cache: 6144 KB clock speeds: max: 3600 MHz 1: 1239 MHz 2: 1929 MHz 3: 1974 MHz 4: 1398 MHz Graphics: Card: Intel Sky Lake Integrated Graphics Display Server: X.Org 1.18.3 drivers: intel (unloaded: fbdev,vesa) Resolution: 1920x1080@60.00hz GLX Renderer: Mesa DRI Intel HD Graphics 530 (Skylake GT2) GLX Version: 3.0 Mesa 11.2.0 Definitively related bug reports: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=94559 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1305369 Temporary workaround found in that redhat bug report to enable proper video playback in SMPlayer (Point #6 of Eric Lavarde's steps to reproduce): - Open SMPlayer, go to Options -> Preferences - Go to "Advanced", then to the "Options for MPlayer/mpv" tab - add -vo gl to the (empty) option list ** Affects: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Package changed: xorg-server (Ubuntu) => xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1619556 Title: Video Stacking/Scaling issue on DELL OptiPlex 7440 AIO ( Intel Core i5-6500 Skylake ) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1619556/+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
