I had a look at the preferences window, video tab.  The "Output" option
was automatic.

Looking at the logs, I notice it was selecting xcb_xv (XVideo)

I manually changed it to "OpenGL GLX video output (XCB)" and the problem
goes away.



[7f10c8001268] core vout display debug: using vout display module
"xcb_glx"




Looking at the mpv logs as well, it appears to be using OpenGL by default:

Is there any other detail I should look for in the log?

Should the automatic setting use a different default?

Daniel

Please provide the output of vlc -vvv. Did you try selecting different video
output modules (e.g. the OpenGL one)?

Bug#881489: playback scaled to 4k fullscreen is choppy

2017-11-12 Thread Daniel Pocock
Package: vlc
Version: 2.2.6-1~deb9u1


Trying to play a video file with a resolution 720x526, 25fps, MPEG-1/2
(problem also observed with other videos at different resolutions)

With the window maximized and the option "Always Fit Window" selected,
it appears to zoom to 3:1 and playback appears good.

When fullscreen is selected (up to the 4k resolution of the display), I
frequently see what appears to be a horizontal tear across the middle of
the picture, especially when there is a lot of movement in the video.

Using mpv 0.23.0-2+b2 at fullscreen with the same video I don't observe
the problem.

I don't have libvdpau1 installed due to problems with the frame rate[1]

Hardware is Intel i3-7100U CPU @ 2.40GHz and Kaby Lake integrated
graphics Intel HD Graphics 620 (Kabylake GT2)

Regards,

Daniel
