Hello,
I've made a small discovery today :-P. I don't know how or why it works, but it makes flickering disappear completely in VLC using Xvideo. The idea is to ask Xvideo to output on another display.
This is what I did :
In VLC, I went in :
Settings > Preferences
There, I enabled "Advanced options" (bottom right). Then, I went in :
Video > Output Modules
There, I chose Xvideo as the output module
Then, I went in the options of Xvideo :
Video > Output Modules > Xvideo
And I entered ":1" as the X11 display.
That's it. When I start a movie, there's a certain amount of time before the image appears, but it's not flickering at all, which is nice.
I'm quite surprised, since I am supposed to have only one X server running, and since VLC is running on display :0.0.
Can someone explain this behaviour ? ;-)
