well it's not just vlc and any special setting. its EVERYTHING!!! noting is synced moving a window playing video in any player. scrolling in browser playing youtube in browser.
EVERYTHING look like shit you can not miss it. here is another person having the same issue. https://whirm.eu/posts/fix-for-xorgs-modesetting-driver-tearing/ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1605953 Title: skylake Modesetting Driver on X failure Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: with the change away from the intel driver to modeset I get a lot of tearing. This video shows the problem. https://goo.gl/photos/rXNBQ5KR6ZMnhazB9 And the video capture is done in 240fps so its possible to see what is happening more clearly. The test video itself is just a short test video with alternating red/green pictures in 60Hz. What you should see is a somewhat flickering screen but the color should be a consistent orange hue. there should be no pulsing of colors that is more green then back to more red and so on then something is wrong. I have attached the video. if you are uncertain how it should look try to play it directly on a TV. that is with the TV own player not with a computer as that has a lot higher probability of not having any issues with vsync and frame updates. --- .tmp.unity_support_test.0: ApportVersion: 2.20.2-0ubuntu1 Architecture: amd64 BootLog: /dev/sda2: clean, 770076/2416640 files, 3881571/9647872 blocks (K(K CompizPlugins: No value set for `/apps/compiz-1/general/screen0/options/active_plugins' CompositorRunning: compiz CompositorUnredirectDriverBlacklist: '(nouveau|Intel).*Mesa 8.0' CompositorUnredirectFSW: true CurrentDesktop: Unity DistUpgraded: 2016-04-22 23:31:04,108 DEBUG Running PostInstallScript: './xorg_fix_proprietary.py' DistroCodename: yakkety DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.10 DistroVariant: ubuntu ExtraDebuggingInterest: Yes, including running git bisection searches GraphicsCard: Intel Corporation HD Graphics 530 [8086:1912] (rev 06) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Micro-Star International Co., Ltd.
