I may be confused, but I was under the impression that "X11 Video
Output (XCB)" was the default video output. Can you please check what
video output vlc uses when you configure it to "Default"?
-- regards, Reinhard
VLC uses "XVideo Output (XCB)" (xcb_xv) as its default video output. The
problem that you are having with xvideo is because your video drivers
are buggy and don't support XVideo properly (prime example: VirtualBox
XVideo and certain other binary blob drivers are buggy).
