It maybe fixed. Keep in mind that this is the only video I've really tested. But everything works this well. Wouldn't you say this combination fixed it?


I installed, vainfo, pipewire, and liquorix kernel. The kernel seemed to make the most improvements.

I just copied the inxi man page into libreoffice writer. It told me it's 52 pages long.

If someone would of just told me "just give me the gpu information" I would of just copied out that information.

The year was 2013 when I first started officially testing Linux on my old 2007 desktop computer, and my old 2011 laptop computer. By around 2015 I was using Linux on an old used Dell desktop computer from 2006. I'm not going to talk about all the different distros I tried in those years but one of t...

I didn't timeshift back, Instead I decided to leave the window managers on the system and just install one thing at a time. I did all my tests in XFCE: First I installed vainfo, an rebooted. Then I tested VLC, MPV, etc. I noticed a little improvement. Next I installed pipewire, and rebooted. Did the...

I just got back from testing iceWM, TWM, Fluxbox, and Openbox. The video behaved worse on all of them! I'm going to timeshift the system back to the way it was.

I should mention that after installing iceWM, even running the media players under XFCE got worse.

I will go ahead and try installing TWM, Fluxbox, or Openbox. But again, I really don't want to use them!

Would you consider Tails OS to be Debian since they are based on Debian Stable? https://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=tails If so we ruled out the XFCE problem. Because Tails Os uses Gnome as the desktop and it has the same problem. Enough difference is possible that the minor effort invol...

I used this command to get it: inxi -Fxxxrza inxi -Fxxxrza == inxi -Frza x is subsumed by xx is subsumed by xxx is subsumed by a. When having graphics issues, more than -GSaz is usually not relevant, at least, not more than once per thread. Most of -Farz is just noise. inxi has so many options it's...

Have you tried a windowmanager setup instead of a desktop environment? No but no problems on other Distros, just Debian!!! This is a necessary troubleshooting step, to determine whether Debian's XFCE could be part of the problem. Try IceWM. It's quite small on disk and in RAM, and efficient. Would ...

I am not ignoring ANY of YOU. But I have been trying to figure out how to do your suggestions in an organized manner. You're very persistent, I admire that. It's easy to get sidetracked, so stay focused and when you find the culprit, please file the bug with debian reportbug program against the appr...

I wanted to change the subject line to something better. But the forums won't allow me to edit it. Since this thread has gotten so long and it feels like a confusing mess now. So I decided to create a new thread. Starting all over with a brand new install. In case anyone is interested, here is the l...

My old thread is this: https://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?t=154565 I am starting this thread because that thread has turned into a mess. Nobody can tell what is going on with it anymore. Today I did a FRESH install of Debian 12 Bookworm. It is from this ISO: https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd...

You put your lines inside my quotes above. More confuse.

No I fixed it.

Thanks.

Your avatar looks confused 100% of the time!

I think it's a total waste of time. But I don't think it is a good idea to keep this thread going. It's a huge mess.

At least give us something to go on, so far very little. Are there any error messages in logs? Possibly you may get helpful messages if you run the application from terminal, something like mpv nameofvideo.mkv We did that already at the very beginning of this thread!!!!! No error messages helped us...
