I tried installing ppa from strukturag with the vlc plugin but every time I play a movie, I get a green layer over the video. On other players, such as smplayer, it only plays the audio without any output.
The video is not corrupted because if I play it with just the plain ffplay command, it looks perfect.
One funny thing is that x265 videos were working on 14.04 but not anymore after upgrading.
Does anybody have a solution/idea for this? I am about to re install from scratch my (k)ubuntu but if possible, I would like to avoid it.
