** Description changed:

  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
  
- Latest version of Celluloid (0.17) obtained by PPA:
- https://launchpad.net/~xuzhen666/+archive/ubuntu/gnome-mpv
+ Video playback in mpv, gnome-mpv, or VLC on X causes a flicker to occur,
+ as in: https://imgur.com/a/M6P325u.
  
+ This also occurs on 19.04 but with the Adwaita theme enabled instead of
+ Yaru.
  
- When I use the new Ubuntu 19.10 dev theme (all gray Yaru), video playback 
starts to tear in Celluloid (I wasn't able to capture it with 
SimpleScreenRecorder, sorry, the tearing does not appear in the capture). 
- Really similar tearing occurs with Adwaita as the enabled theme. 
- It however does NOT occur at all with the  older Yaru theme (which I copied 
from my Ubuntu 19.04 install).
+ This issue does not occur in Wayland.
+ This issue does not occur if I use the older Yaru theme (in 19.10).
  
- There is no tearing with any of the themes enabled in Wayland.
- Tearing is scant and impossible to appreciate in VLC.
- These issues occur only in X, and in Celluloid. 
- 
- The reason I'm reporting this to you is because it coincides with the
- theme change.
+ (The Z-shaped tear previously associated with this bug report is fixed
+ by adding TearFree to the radeon Xorg config.)

** Summary changed:

- Video tearing in MPV/VLC in Xorg (but not Wayland)
+ Video flicker on triggering OSD in Xorg (but not Wayland)
