VLC 2.2.4 has horizontal green lines

Postby Pylon » 07 Jun 2016 23:32

In full screen mode, the video has the bottom of the video image (at
Transition from screen to frame) each have a bright green stripes. Please fix this trouble. I Use still VLC 2.2.1. This version seems to be perfect. I do not want to change my settings. I hope it will be fixed soon. Otherwise I'm forced me to download a different player.

Best regards

Pylon

Please share your logs, a screenshot, your VLC version and your Windows version. And also do you have it with all files?

The same here. VLC 2.2.4 on Windows XP, only with H264 encoded video files. I reinstalled VLC 2.2.1.

Hi there,
Jean-Baptiste, please, can you visit this link. I have the same problem, I've attached screenshots and also give you information about the kind of video and codec. Also I found a solution for this, until you fix VLC for a new update.
Please, visit this link.

I'm happy to know more people have this problem.
Yes, I am using a AMD card. My driver is old, I don't update the driver for my graphics card since 2013... so yes, I am using a AMD.
More people here with green lines and AMD card?

Just like MrMister, I also have this problem, in all video formats.

I have Windows 10, the Radeon R9 270x.

Any logs post here, where all with the problem does not need. It is here clearly to VLC Player. My video settings must remain set to "Automatic", so I have the sharpest picture! When I click on "OpenGL" the green line is indeed gone, but then I have a blurred image. That can not be the solution. Why is there always broken good software. It is clearly not on the banks. Please fix it. Thanks.

It's the same the screensize... the green line normally is seen when you play movies in full screen.
Seems to be all people here have AMD cards, so seems to be this is something affecting AMD cards.
They have changed the code for VLC and did something affecting AMD cards.

I got the same problem since version 2.2.2, but my green lines are much bigger.
Also it happens with diffrent kind of codecs...xvid, h264...and it's not always there...restarting vlc solves it but is nonetheless a problem if i run a playlist.

Can also confirm that 2.2.4 shows a green line at the bottom of every single video file. I'm fairly sure 2.2.2 or 2.2.3 did not have this issue (I forget which version I used before). Log files, not sure where to look unfortunately.
