Bug Description
Binary package hint: totem
This is a predictable malfunction which affects VLC & Totem Movie Player.
To recreate the malfunction ... Enable Desktop effect, then play any video media and the view port goes black, if you shake the window it returns briefly but the symptom continues if again you move the window or play a new video clip.
If, during playback you deactivate the desktop effects, video output is immediately restored.
I have an ATI Radeon 9600 AGP video card. (would be happy to give you the entire machine spec if yo need it) - oh Ubuntu 7 beta
PS> You guys are saints, and your dedication is inspirational, thank you! and I love the effects, nice work.
