Package: budgie-desktop Version: 10.5.2-3 Followup-For: Bug #990678 X-Debbugs-Cc: pascal.mart...@gmx.fr
Dear Maintainer, I have used Openbox much recently. I said that MPV worked fine in i3, jwm and openbox. To be precise, in Openbox there is now awful video tearing with Compton or Picom as necessary window compositors. So I turned to Mutter for replacement. I had to install the Mutter package itself as only the libraries were already installed. With Mutter the image is perfect, it does the job, I can only notice a delay in window compositing when the CPU is too busy. What I wanted to report about Mutter is that I don't see in Openbox all the little defects I reported for Gnome or Budgie. The video image is perfect when I connect to fullscreen and come back to windowed video and move it. With Mutter I notice image tearing only in Firefox when I scroll pages up and down. And I wanted to report also another bug in MPV that reminds me that this marvelous (not so) little software is not perfect (what/who is?), unlike what I tended to think. I was looking at a streaming video while doing some configuration job for Openbox & Tint2 (with several "live" Openbox & Tint2 restarting). So at least these tools were open at the same time : MPV, SMPlayer, Gedit, Firefox. When I had finished my config, I noticed that the (paused) video image had changed : it was all cleanly pulled/shifted to the left, so with a black vertical bar at the right (10-15% of the image). I checked that it was not "normal", a video effect, by going back in the video and then relaunching it again. No, the problem came undoubtedly from MPV. I can add that this video had been launched for hours. So I wanted to report that comparison for Mutter usage and a reminder that MPV may also be buggy (though it works quite finely most of the time). I can say that this MPV little bug (or defect or feature) was only discovered in extreme usage conditions. Cordially, Pascal. -- System Information: Debian Release: 11.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.10.0-7-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU threads) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages budgie-desktop depends on: ii budgie-core 10.5.2-3 ii dconf-gsettings-backend [gsettings-backend] 0.38.0-2 ii gir1.2-budgie-1.0 10.5.2-3 ii gnome-control-center 1:3.38.4-1 ii gnome-menus 3.36.0-1 ii network-manager-gnome 1.20.0-3 Versions of packages budgie-desktop recommends: ii budgie-desktop-view 1.1.1-1 Versions of packages budgie-desktop suggests: ii gnome-terminal 3.38.3-1 ii nautilus 3.38.2-1 pn slick-greeter <none>
