Title:
Scaled video displays only blank screen
Status in “xserver-xorg-video-sis” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
If I try to play any video (DVD, AVI files, whatever) with Movie
Player, then it usually gives me a blank screen. However, if I select
a 1:1 zoom or 1:2 zoom or something like that, it does seem to show
it. But then it disappears again when a DVD chapter change occurs. It
seems that video scaling isn't working.
This video card worked with older Ubuntu 10.10 version, but not 11.10
(I didn't try 11.04).
