** Summary changed: - [Hardy] vlc changes lfp brightness to xbacklight value when playing video with xv (i915) + [Hardy] gdm and vlc changes brightness to xbacklight value (i915)
** Description changed: - Binary package hint: vlc - Every time I open a video file in vlc brightness is changed to xbacklight value (which seems to bee 33.3 per default). If I use my laptop brightness keys afterwards it jumps to previous brightness postion +- one. This doesn't happen when the X11 output is used. If I change the driver from -intel to -vesa the problem is gone so I guess it is partly a driver issue. Since Totem and mplayer haven't this problem it is more a vlc one. If I change the value with xbacklight it directly takes effect but could be changed through the laptop brightness keys. If I set xbacklight to 100 brightness goes always to maximum when vlc plays a video file and if I set it to 0 minimum brightness is shown. I am using current Hardy and the brightness keys are using sony-laptop. It worked fine in Gutsy and previous releases. vlc: Installed: 0.8.6.release.d-0ubuntu5 xserver-xorg-video-intel: Installed: 2:2.2.1-1ubuntu4 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller [8086:2592] (rev 03) -- [Hardy] gdm and vlc changes brightness to xbacklight value (i915) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/201933 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
