Comment 2 for bug 1725326

OK, I've figured out what's going on. My PC's have been using the Nouveau display driver (apparently one of my recent updates reset my active video driver(s) from the Nvidia proprietary driver to the default Nouveau open-source driver(s)). Once I downloaded, installed and activated the Nvidia proprietary driver(s) for my video card(s) VLC works as it should on my PC's. However, this means that there is still an incompatibility between VLC and the Nouveau open-source video driver.
