@mahen I can confirm, logging in through ssh and issuing 'killall -9
vlc' unfreezes the desktop after a few seconds.

Jumping back and forth in  the video timeline really encourages a total
freeze.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1574354] Re: playing .mp4 in VLC freezes machine

2017-12-20 Thread Mahendra Tallur
Hi everyone ! Considering the potentially very wide scope of a bug that
would freeze the X server, could you guys & gals give more details ?

- OS / ARCH
- GPU
- Proprietary or open source driver ?
- X or Wayland ?
- Any PPA ?
- How often the bug occurs ? Is it completely random ?
- Does it occur with specific videos ? Codecs ? 
- Does it only occur when seeking into the video ?
- In the VLC preferences, what video mode chosen ?
- Does it freeze only VLC, the whole session or the whole server ? Can you kill 
it from the console ?
- Do you have similar freezes / crashes in other apps ?

As for me : it occurs in Ubuntu 16.04 (KDE Neon actually). Nvidia GTX
1060 + proprietary driver. Bug is random and occurs when seeking a lot
into the video. It seems only to occur in VDPAU mode (hardware
decoding). I have no other crash at all in any video player or even
complex Steam game. I didn't double check with other VDPAU player.

This is potentially a massive bug (it occurred on secveral of my
machines and freezes the whole session)... Maybe it'll just "disappear"
when switching to VLC 3 or Wayland...

I'm using the latest version of 17.10 and whenever I play videos on full 
screen, the OS get freezed.
Hence I had to restart my machine, every single time in order to get back 
alive. The file I've played was a .mp4 file.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1574354] Re: playing .mp4 in VLC freezes machine

2017-12-11 Thread antubis
I am having the same issue. Ubuntu 17.10 with VLC. When seeking an mp4
file, at some point, always different, the video freezes, the mouse
cursor freezes and the PC become irresponsible. I sometimes am able to
recover by switching PC to Airplane mode. Don't know why but it unfreeze
it. But only sometimes.

I did try with the different video output but the issue keeps happening.
Ultimately I switched back to the default video player cause I don't
want to reboot my system every time I want to skip recaps.

My video card is Nvidia for what is worth.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1574354] Re: playing .mp4 in VLC freezes machine

2017-11-21 Thread Martin Rosenau
I run Ubuntu 17.10 but I use Xorg instead of Wayland by default.

When I play some MP4 videos using VLC the entire system seems to freeze
but I still can move the mouse cursor (only keys and mouse buttons have
no effect any more).

The key combination Ctrl+Alt+F1 however still works - using this
combination I can log in with a different user.

Logged in as the other user everything works.

The only possibility to get the first user running again is to kill the
Xorg X server.

(Even killing VLC won't work.)

For this reason I assume that a bug in the X server is the problem.

2017-11-18 Thread Mahendra Tallur
Hi ! I encounter this issue too (complete X freeze sometimes when seeking too 
much in videos in VLC).
I thought that was related to using Nvidia VDPAU. I saw this behaviour on 2 
very different machines. 

Using KDE Neon based on Ubuntu 16.04. Tried latest NVIDIA drivers & VLC
PPA. This PPA is quite outdated, though. But as this is a complete X
freeze (sometimes I cannot even switch to the console) it seems quite
low-level.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1574354] Re: playing .mp4 in VLC freezes machine

2017-10-15 Thread ewr2san
Same problem (assumed) here with Kubuntu 16.04, and Kubuntu 17.10.
Nvidia 384.90 video drivers. 

Seeking in large files causes VLC to hang freezing the desktop session.

Sometimes I can CTL-ALT-F2 and get a console session.  VLC cant be
killed, wont even die with a -9 for several minutes.

Sometimes I cant even CTL-ALT-F2 to a console. Graphical console is
completely frozen.

I can ssh in, which leads me to believe that the problem is not that the
entire system is frozen, just something in the video side.

Ive tried every setting in VLC I can from disabling hardware
acceleration, use/dont use VDPAU, etc..

Other video players which do use HW Acceleration seem to have no issue.
The larger the file, the more I seek/skip, the more likley VLC is to
trigger the freeze.

The file I'm testing with has a "H264 - MPEG-4 AVC (part 10) (avc1)"
video track.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1574354] Re: playing .mp4 in VLC freezes machine

2017-09-16 Thread Tom Reynolds
I'm on Ubuntu 16.04.3 with mainline kernel

Linux version 4.13.2-041302-generic (kernel@tangerine) (gcc version
7.2.0 (Ubuntu 7.2.0-3ubuntu1)) #201709132057 SMP Thu Sep 14 00:59:32 UTC
2017

and mesa 1:17.3~git170914191100.7ffd4d2~x~padoka0 and X from the Padoka
PPA.

OpenGL renderer string: Radeon RX 580 Series (POLARIS10 / DRM 3.18.0 /
4.13.2-041302-generic, LLVM 6.0.0)

With default VLC configuration (default Ubuntu package) I see the
symptoms Donald describes in #18. While discussing this in #radeon on
Freenode, it was suggested to me to try a different video output driver
in VLC. It turns out it default to "automatic", which is, in this
configuration, VDPAU output. And this causes said problems. Switching to
"OpenGL GLX video output (XCB)" works around the issue.

So this seems to be an issue with VDPAU, but I could not tell on which
end.

Does this workaround (switching to a different video output driver) work
for you, too?
