I'll give vlc a try when I get home tonight. Does that mean you've been able to reproduce the kodi behaviour?

On-screen display items (eg. elapsed time) and audio still work, but the decoded video content is now all black. Disabling vaapi acceleration in the Kodi options restores the video playback. I have bisected the problem to this commit: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/ubuntu- vivid.git/commit/?id=059c4a45e7a0233ab06b16f591a7877d11f6d79c The problem still happens in Ubuntu-3.19.0-31.36, as well as Ubuntu-4.0.0-1.2 and Ubuntu-4.2.0-16.19 from the ubuntu-wily repo. It appears that the above commit flicks the switch on many changes, and doesn't really shed too much light on what the actual problem might be. I've tried moving that commit earlier into the history in the hope that I might be able to find a 'good' point to bisect from, but had no luck. The furthest I was able to push it back was http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/ubuntu- vivid.git/commit/?id=59b6d9aaa4c379d84930598183cb4911a2713ff4, but the problem remained.
