Attachments:	full screen of VLC but small video window not correctly scaled

Description Ben McMonagle 2015-10-02 08:19:03 CEST

Description of problem: When VLC first launches, the window is not full screen. The video starts to play but is slightly smaller than the available window. If the window is then made full screen the video playback remains the original size, in the top left corner of a now black window, approx 1/4 of screen. To correctly scale the video to full screen the video track must first be disabled via the VLC menu "video" and then re-enabled. If VLC is minimised before exiting and then VLC is restarted, this causes the issue to recur.
If VLC is in fullscreen  or maximised when closed there is no problem.
If system is rebooted , the issue recurs

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):vlc 2.2.1-8.mga6 (tainted)


How reproducible:every time the system is booted


Steps to Reproduce:
1.install VLC (tainted) and update system to latest.
2.open a video file and observe black edges to mvideo in small screen.
3.choose full screen or maximise screen.
4.disable video track and then re-enable the video track. 
5 observe the change in video scale


Reproducible:

I can confirm this problem here. I'll try to see if I can reproduce from a VLC built from vanilla sources and if so - I'll report it upstream.

It happens from a source build of VLC from the vlc-2.2.x git (both latest and vlc-2.2.1). I'm going to report it upstream.

Here it is fixed on at least one of my cauldrons, right after doing a lot of gtk and qt updates. I use vlc-2.2.1-13.mga6

@ Ben, Shlomi

Did it get fixed for you, too?

Yes, it seem fixed here on an up-to-date (= from today) Cauldron. I'm waiting for Benâs input.
