VLC turns off the display (HDMI) for 1 second

[chayMa]

Hello Everyone,

I have noticed an issue in my system. While the start of vlc from command line (Without GUI) the display is turned off for one second and then turned on and the video start playing.
Is there anyone faced this behavior ?

Note : I am running VLC in raspberryPi without Desktop
I would be thankfull if you provide me good explanation

Best regards,

Chayma.

Playing video without GUI is not really supported at this time, so I assume you're using an unofficial rPI build of VLC. We can't really help with unofficial versions here.
