@vanvugt The tearing's a nonissue now so it makes sense to refashion this report to deal with the flicker only. I'd really rather not shirk this report with the traction it's received.
Re #19, just the one screen. But that makes no difference either. I have a multiple screen setup on a different computer and this happens there too. It happens everywhere, regardless of hardware. It also happens with all the extensions and modes are pulled out. It happens regardless of what theme or what shell theme I use. And I haven't been able to reproduce this issue on Arch, Fedora Rawhide or Manjaro. -- 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/1845102 Title: Video flicker on triggering OSD in Xorg (but not Wayland) Status in gnome-mpv package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in mpv package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in vlc package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Description: Ubuntu Eoan Ermine (development branch) Release: 19.10 My specs: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Caicos PRO [Radeon HD 7450] Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q9400 @ 2.66GHz A flicker occurs with video playback in mpv, gnome-mpv, or VLC on X when the OSD is triggered (a volume change), for example: https://imgur.com/a/M6P325u. This also occurs on 19.04 but with the Adwaita theme enabled instead of Yaru. This issue does not occur in Wayland. This issue does not occur if I use the older Yaru theme (in 19.10). (The Z-shaped tear previously associated with this bug report is fixed by adding TearFree to the radeon Xorg config.)
