Package: vlc
Version: 2.2.0~rc2-2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
I recently downloaded some video files and tried to play them using VLC. The files
played back badly, with a thin band of choppy video at the top, and the rest of the
screen straight green.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)?
Tried Kaffeine. Same result. However KMplayer and Totem played it properly and
Avidemux was able to open it. Avidemux reports it as 4CC Mpeg, 960x544 with stereo
MP2 sound at 48,000 Hz.
