My /var/log/syslog currently has about 240GB of the following line:

    Oct  4 17:53:32 noam-ubuntu org.gnome.Nautilus[3124]:
[00007f9fa8021120] vdpau_chroma filter error: video mixer attributes
failure: An invalid handle value was provided.

I had VLC open, with a video paused, for about a day. I found out I have
this issue when space ran out on / .

I'm using Nvidia drivers version 430.40 on Ubuntu 18.04. Unlike the
original poster of the bug, I did not switch to another user. I did
however change my resolution - I manually change the resolution from 4k
to 1080p for streaming movies and change it back to 4k to do other
things.

I suspect that the faulty situation appears when I VLC is started in one
resolution and then the resolution is changed. I will test further.
