I'm not sure this is the right place to report this issue, however it only happens on VLC. I tried to reproduce it with ffmpeg (via ffplay) which also supports vdpau, but without luck. The issue goes away when I change the Tools->Preferences->Video->Display->Output setting from automatic (or "VDPAU output", which seems to be the preferred one when supported) to "OpenGL GLX video output (XCB)". I'm using Gallium 0.4 on AMD POLARIS10 (DRM 3.8.0 / 4.9.6-gentoo, LLVM 3.9.1). $ emerge --info vlc libvdpau llvm mesa Portage 2.3.3 (python 3.4.5-final-0, default/linux/amd64/13.0, gcc-5.4.0,

I had the same exact problem. Downgrading to media-libs/mesa-13.0.3 fixes it. I'd suggest changing the title of this bug report to mention media-libs/mesa-17.0.0_rc2, as that seems to be the culprit.
Have you reported this upstream? Please do so if you have not already: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Mesa and add the bug to the URL field here.
(In reply to Matt Turner from comment #3) > Have you reported this upstream? Since Mateusz Lenik has not done it yet, I went ahead and opened a bug report upstream. I can't add the URL to this bug report (no permission), but here it is: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99637
Per the upstream but, this patch in master should address the issue. https://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/commit/?id=31908d6a4a3309f4cd4b953d6eecdf41595b1299

I've closed the upstream bug report.
(In reply to Matt Whitlock from comment #6) > I dropped that patch into /etc/portage/patches/media-libs/mesa-17.0.0_rc2/ I should note that I have the following in /etc/portage/env/media-libs/mesa: pre_src_prepare() { epatch_user } I doubt the user patch would be applied without that hook.
Patch will get applied -- this ebuild uses EAPI=6 Sorry for not reporting myself, -ENOTIME
Upstream has released the patch in 17.0.0_rc3. Could we get a version bump on Gentoo?
17.0.0_rc3 fixes this issue, closing.
