What does "status: invalid" mean? In XFCE > Settings > Additional Drivers > Additional Drivers, it's currently set to "NVIDIA Corporation GF106M [GeForce GTX 460M] "[x] Using NVIDIA driver metapackage from nvidia-driver-390 (proprietary, tested)". Other options are "[ ] Using NVIDIA bindary driver - version 340.106 from nvidia-340 (proprietary)" and "[ ] Using X.Org server - Nouveau display driver from xserver-xorg-video-nouveau (open source)" Tried to install nvidia-340, but it cocked up and left the system in a bad state. I couldn't even revert to nvidia-driver-390 without doing a lot of "apt --fix-broken install ... dpkg-divert --remove" loops. Installed the nouveau driver, doesn't send output to the primary display, had to plug in a second display. (???) used "xfwm4-tweaks-settings" to make sure Compositing is turned on. Started "totem vapourwave.mp4" and... no transparency. does_not_reproduce NVIDIA website says the latest "long lived" (stable?) version is 390.77 (2018-07-16). https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/136120/en-us . It won't let me install it because of the kernel modules already installed, which I can't remove with modprobe nor rmmod because "resource is in use" despite no dependencies and I already stopped X.Org. I'll keep trying. Looking like it's a bad interaction between Totem and the NVIDIA proprietary driver (nvidia-driver-390). Weird that the other video players, even the gstreamer-based ones, don't suffer the same problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to totem in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1767711 Title: Nvidia+XFCE: Totem window is see-through during playback, colours washed out To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-390/+bug/1767711/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Looks like the next step would be to test with an older NVIDIA driver version from the Ubuntu repository, and maybe with the slightly newer version 390.77 from the NVIDIA website also. ** Changed in: xfce4 (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to totem in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1767711 Title: Nvidia+XFCE: Totem window is see-through during playback, colours washed out To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-390/+bug/1767711/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 1767711] Re: Nvidia+XFCE: Totem window is see-through during playback, colours washed out
What output do you get when opening the Totem player from a terminal window? The builtin compositor can be disabled via xfwm4-tweaks-settings, and that will most likely prevent the issue from occurring. Other than that, I suggest to test with a different window manager (e.g. "marco --replace", afterwards "xfwm4 --replace"). ** Changed in: xfce4 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to totem in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1767711 Title: Nvidia+XFCE: Totem window is see-through during playback, colours washed out To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-390/+bug/1767711/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
