I find that when playing certain flv files the black and white portion of the video plays fine, but the coloured parts overlaying the video will be translated to the left or right so that the video has hideous colours.
On Hardy I found that if I had this problem in Totem, I could still play the video in VLC without any problems. However, in Intrepid, I have this problem with more videos than I did in Hardy, and playing them in VLC doesn't fix the problem. In VLC, however, switching to X11 output does solve this (perhaps in Hardy it chose X11 by default, whereas in Intrepid it's choosing XVideo by default). For me, this bug is consistent as to which flvs it affects, but there are some flvs that it didn't affect on Hardy that it does on Intrepid. I don't know what might be different about these flvs. Below are links to three flvs, all of them ripped from YouTube. The first one hasn't had this problem in either Hardy or Intrepid. The second has the problem only in Intrepid. The third has the problem in both Hardy and Intrepid. http://misc.markdarb.com/Not_the_Nine_O_Clock_News_Bathroom_Plan.flv (neither) http://misc.markdarb.com/Rowan_Atkinson_questions_God..flv (Intrepid) http://misc.markdarb.com/Two_Ronnies_-_Mastermind.flv (Hardy and Intrepid) I'm using the 32-bit version of Intrepid Beta with all updates. I have a GeForce 8600M GT. I've always used the proprietary drivers (although wish I could instead use some nice free drivers with a nice open card, hence avoiding all the annoyances NVIDIA cards are plagued with). I'm currently using version 177 of the NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver. -- vlc video colour change https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/199975 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
