[Bug 1417726] Re: After resumnig from sleep, playing videos doesn't work

 

I found a fix for network and sound card. There have been several kernel
updates in the past week or two, but all things combined gave nothing to
initial problem.

After resume from suspend, videos often show just black, with sound
playing (using xv output). gl output gives picture but it flickers all
the time between video picture and black screen. This is the same for
mplayer, totem and vlc. The only video output that usually work when all
do not is x11 without xv.

Additionally, when this starts to happen, Google Chrome browser window
is flickering like mad, and becomes unusable. The same happens with
Steam client. The only solution so far is to restart X (either
logout/login or restart computer). But this defeats the purpose of going
to sleep...

Title:
  After resumnig from sleep, playing videos doesn't work

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This started a few weeks ago, after some update I guess. When my
  machine resumes from sleep,  if I try to play video in any player I
  have installed (vlc, smplayer, totem), all I get for a picture is a
  black screen. Sound is going, just there is no picture. I can get very
  flickering and unwatchable picture if I choose some OpenGL-based
  renderer (in smplayer). Sometimes, if I turn on or off second monitor,
  playing works for a while. The only way to enable playback is to
  restart X (logout/login or computer restart), which is geting quite
  tiresome because I need to close all my programs and open them again.

  I'm not sure if this is xorg, Unity or driver bug, but it really bugs
  me.
