sachyhi all, not sure if already tracked, but 'vlc' is broken in currect Daedalus. Video stream si shown only with a default setting. When the same default settings is reloaded (vlc restarted), video is not shown anymore. VLC works only when  ~/.config/vlc is removed before execution.11:21
LeePensachy: nothing in vlc is forked so that should be reported to Debian.11:22
sachyLeePen: good, thanks11:24
LeePenIs it like https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1023005?11:25
sachyYep, except is is broken for all outputs, notz only XCB; and no orange rectangle is shown. So I suppose the cause is the same, thanks for pointing me there.11:30
bgstack15is this related to that https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1021032 where the temporary fix is to run "--no-embedded-video"13:51
bgstack15?13:51
bgstack15Those Debian folks say they fixed it but it's still operating that broken way for me...13:51
sachybgstack15:  the --no-embedded-video indeed works as a workaround14:05
bgstack15I've had to use that for about a month now. Not the worst thing in the world but not how I prefer to use VLC14:10
sachyI have found out few days ago because I always have one VLC session for weeks (just appending to the playilist) so it had all the libs loaded from the times before breaking update16:04
golinuxI finally dumped VLC16:45
bgstack15I've been using mpv for a while on a wireless network client that greatly benefits from how mpv caches nfs files for up to so many seconds.17:11
