I suspect that bionic has both the open source and the closed source drivers.

If you're using an open source driver, you could try to open a bug at
freedesktop and/or at vlc.

xine has issues on its own, as it is not maintained for a *long* time. It
probably won't allow you to use channels with h.264/h.265. Also, if you look at
the Kaffeine's closed bug reports, you'll see hundreds of bugs due to it.

Once I played with the idea, but never had time to do any serious stuff. I
guess I found somewhere a Gstreamer backend for Kaffeine (I guess it was on
some version 0.9x). I suspect it shouldn't be that hard to make it work again,
but it would require a lot more time than I have to dedicate on userspace
projects nowadays.
