I'm having this same problem, but very strange results. On my PC, with an nVidia card, I have no problems. I can run a VirtualBox VM, then open a video file with SMplayer, no transparent video output. Xv works just fine too. Compiz-Fusion is running (I use the Xfce environment). My PC has the latest nVidia driver installed through the VDPAU ppa though.
My laptop on the other hand, does have this problem. The video card is an ATi X1400 Mobility Radeon and I'm forced to use the Open Source driver for it (xserver-xorg-video-radeon from bdrung's ppa, version 1:6.12.99+git20090629.f39cafc5-0ubuntu1~ppa). It doesn't happen until I run a VM. After I ran a VM, the window preview boxes are also showing some transparency where it shouldn't. A reload of Compiz fixes this for a moment (until I run a VM again), but it doesn't fix SMplayer. Even switching back to Xfwm4 as window manager doesn't get it going. SMplayer isn't transparent anymore, but the video is now black. Using the XLIB_NO_ARGB_VISUALS=1 option isn't a real fix. I've seen on other sites, including the SMPlayer forum that it's a Qt problem. Is Qt 4.5.3 in Karmic now? Can anyone check if that does not have this issue? If it's fixed with that, Qt 4.5.3 should be backported to Jaunty. -- Video corruption with composition https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/364764 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
