I am experiencing exactly the same problem on Lucid, with compiz activated: if I use gstreamer's xvimagesink output (XV), the video is only refreshed when the window moves or is resized. I get this problem wth Totem, but also with "gst-launch playbin uri=...". In those cases, I also have very bright colors (definitely too bright).
If, however, I set gstreamer's output to ximagesink (no XV), the video is correctly refreshed and colors are perfect. Also, if I de-activate compiz, both xvimagesink and ximagesink work flawlessly. Note that I use Lucid's default xorg-video-intel driver but my kernel is linux-image-2.6.34rc7-51-generic from "http://ppa.launchpad.net/brian- rogers/experimental/ubuntu" because, with the default kernel, xorg freezes randomly. ** Changed in: gst-plugins-base0.10 (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => Confirmed ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => Confirmed -- [i965gm] gstreamer output isn't refreshed if overlay xv output and Compiz is used https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/358347 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
