We likely need to report this upstream, but can you try .16? Yes, the problem persists with 3.0.16 In addition, it seems like the common denominator for files that cause the failure is that they are HD (1920x1080), which matches my screen resolution. WORKAROUND: If I enable the flag to start fullscreen (video settings), then the files play fine. I can come out of fullscreen after playback has started. although, oddly enough, if I start up a file which is 1280x720, even if I set my system resolution to 1280x720, or lower, I don't trigger the issue. The problem I see in my case is that, sometimes, two windows are opened. One window shows all the controls and vlc menus, the other shows the video. In my case I *sometimes* get it fixed switching some options from the "view" menu... :/ (In reply to Davyd McColl from comment #2) > Yes, the problem persists with 3.0.16 > Could you report it upstream please? I've attempted to repro with 3.0.16-r6 (current ~amd64) and it looks like the problem isn't there any more, whether I choose automatic video output or opengl (which used to trigger the issue quite reliably).
