Thanks. It sounds like the problems are specific to Chrome and VLC. For local video file playback we recommend only using 'mpv' or 'totem' because those are the only players we have verified efficient hardware- accelerated video playback for. However you will need to enable it first by running:
sudo apt install ubuntu-restricted-addons That will make mpv and totem very efficient (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IntelQuickSyncVideo). This bug is now a vlc(Ubuntu) bug. If you want to report bugs against Chrome then please see https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/list For a general list of Gnome Shell performance problems, which may be related, please see: https://trello.com/c/Q6JYXPPs https://trello.com/c/pe5mRmx7 ** Package changed: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) => vlc (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: vlc (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1779592 Title: I have video lagging errors Status in vlc package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: In browser (Chrome) and VLC.
