Public bug reported:

Hi,

i encounter a strange issue with hardware accelerated video playback
with gstreamer (vaapi) and calls to xrandr to query display information.

I dont know for sure what causes this behaviour, but i think it is the
intel driver or xrandr, or a combination of both.

IMPORTANT: The bug only appears if i use a DisplayPort Adapter (DP to
DVI, or DP to HDMI, doesnt matter) to connect the computer to my
monitor. If i connect the monitor directly via DispalyPort the bug is
not encountered. (using the DisplayPort directly without adapter is
unfortunately not an option for me)


Bug Description:
If i play some hardware accelerated mp4/mov files via gst-launch-1.0 and call 
"xrandr -d :0.0" the video freezes about 9 of 10 times for round about half a 
second or so. If i do the same without a DisplayPort Adapter connected between 
my computer and my monitor the video plays fine and no framedrops are visible.
