[Bug 1527944] [NEW] Youtube video distorted and only outlines (HTML5) on v47

 

Public bug reported:

I'm a reporting a bug which is present in v47, not v45 or any earlier
versions. I'm installing chromium onto Raspbian, but upon further tests
this affects a full Ubuntu 15.10 system as well. Also notable, this is
on the Raspberry Pi 2, a ARMv7 system (armhf).

When viewing a youtube video, the picture comes out as only outlines and
distorted. Pictures and a small discussion can be found here.

This is with HTML5 video viewing, all options checked. As I said before,
this works perfectly on v45, playing a video smoothly, yet such a
picture gets produced on v47.

** Affects: chromium-browser (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
