vlc error after recent upgrades [Solved]

have this error now upon launching vlc

vlc: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libXrandr.so.2: undefined symbol: XextFindDisplay

video playback through me-tv is now just a jittery mess and there are no kde system sounds

any advice welcome, thanks.

EDIT

After trying fixes from https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/25145
and deleting vlc folder from ~/.config I still get no vlc interface etc

konsole output

[tim@timpc ~]$ vlc

Re: vlc error after recent upgrades [Solved]

It would be much easier to read if you used code tags.  If I were you I'd try to narrow it down to packages which vlc actually depends on.

Re: vlc error after recent upgrades [Solved]

I have never used code tags knowingly before, I can perform any commands etc needed to help solve this issue

That's code tags.

What I don't understand is why you rolled back a part image instead of trying to install an old version of vlc from cache?

Re: vlc error after recent upgrades [Solved]

vlc has not been upgraded, it was at vlc-1.1.11-4 before.

vlc was very happy until some other package upgrade knackered it

Re: vlc error after recent upgrades [Solved]

SOLVED

Problem has gone away after re-installing recent upgrades one by one. Can't narrow error down or reproduce now, I may of caused this by forcing a erroreous upgrade on scim, but I can't be certain.
