1661292 - VAAPI X11 videos stop playing and display error when switching to another desktop

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Audio/Video: Playback, defect, P5)

Description

[u658943]

Attachment: 2020-08-26-123550_1456x767_scrot.png

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:82.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/82.0

Steps to reproduce:

• Play youtube video with X11 VAAPI enabled in nightly/stable
• switch to another desktop/tag (dwm window manager in my case) but this occurs on others
• video will stop playing and display the error attached below in the picture

Actual results:

I switch over to another desktop to open another application so i can listen to the video in the background, and when I do so the video stops playing and displays the error shown. I should note that this does not occur if i switch to another tab beforehand and then switch to another desktop.

Expected results:

The video should have kept playing in the background, as it does on firefox without VAAPI or on other browsers like chromium (even with VAAPI enabled)

Just to chip in - in my case when I open new tab which has video (mp4) causes this issue.
