X crash when video is about to appear

[Peter Hultqvist]

Whenever a certain type of video screen is about to appear X crashes.
The screen goes black and the next second I'm back at the login screen.

Totem as standalone and for video plugin in chrome
VLC(using default output)
Openshot

These do not cause the issue

Flash video
VLC(with X11 XCB)
