Public bug reported:
There seems to be a bug, which I assume is in mutter, when viewing
multiple vlc videos fullscreen. The steps to reproduce are simple:
1. Open a bunch of videos in vlc in sequence with something like "vlc *" in a
directory full of video files
2. Press N to move to the next video before it finishes (if you have short
videos I don't think this is even needed, just let the videos finish)
3. Notice that sometimes the video freezes right after starting but if you open
the activities or Alt-Tab away and back the video has been playing and will
resume
I've only noticed this bug in VLC but assume it's most likely a mutter
or gnome-shell issue so I filed it in mutter.
