Hello, my VLC does not display subtitles anymore.
I tried with movies I'm sure about subtitles format because I've already seen them in original version but it's not working. Nothing is displayed, not even the movie's title at start-up.
I tried to remove the directory ~/.config/vlc. I checked that OSD and subtutiles are checked in the parameters. I tried to modify the policy and the size of characters in subtitles' options. looked at the optional uninstalled dependancies of my VLC: nothing talks about subtitles. I launched VLC in command line but I don't see errors or warnings meaningful for my problem...
Recently, I've cleaned up a litlle my system by removing orphans bringed back the option -Qdttq of pacman and also by removing some programs manually installed with their dependancies. I dont know if it might explain something.
this is what I've got with pacman -Qi vlc:

libass is installed. I tried to reinstall libass and vlc but without effect. Concerning the polices, maybe missing, I don't know what to check.
Thank you for your help

Welcome to the boards. Can you post VLCs terminal output during attempted playback of something with subtitles, you said you didn't see anything relevant but maybe you are just overlooking something. Another thing to try would be to play around with the output module and maybe disable hardware decoding to see if there's something of relevance there. And if you are using wayland try on xorg.

Thank you V1del. I've tried the different rendering modules for the subtiles and the output modules for the video. Nothing relevant. I'm already using xorg.
This is the terminal output when launching vlc :

I know I've got something ugly in my configuration concerning modprobe and nvidia...
Offline
This reads like quite a lot of general brokeness here. What's that "ugly" configuration? What's your output for
pacman -Q linux
uname -a
glxinfo | grep OpenGL #Needs mesa-demos
pacman -Qs nvidia
pacman -Qs libgl
loginctl session-status
sudo journalctl -b
How are you logging in, how are you starting xorg, I'm suspecting you might have session issues on top of everything else.
Offline
What's ugly is I had to remove the framebuffers from mkinitcpio.conf for a reason of compatibility with my graphic card. Worse, I installed xf86-video-ati driver rather than xf86-video-radeonhd, I don't remember why. I've got an old card Radeon HD 5xxx. And I was not able to configure DPM or DYNPM for the energy saver.
I'm using lightdm to autologin.

Your graphic setup is for all intents and purposes broken. Are you sure you need that nvidia driver? What actual hardware do you have?
lspci -k
that journalctl output is heavily truncated export into a file if necessary
sudo journalctl -b > journal.txt
or use a pastebin client.
You mention a radeon card, the xf86-video-ati is the correct DDX for that that shouldn't be the problem, so you will likely want to remove nvidia-340xx-utils .
Offline
I had to remove the framebuffers from mkinitcpio.conf for a reason of compatibility with my graphic card
also post /etc/mkinitcpio.conf and xorg log (from a boot after you removed nvidia-340xx-utils ).
The session output suggests you boot to LightDM , then use that to start XFCE . Is that correct ?
Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.
(A works at time B) && (time C > time B ) ≠ (A works at time C)

I boot to lightDM and start XFCE, it's correct, Lone_wolf.

This is "sudo journalctl -b > journal.txt" :
journal.txt
And my mkinicpio.conf :
# vim:set ft=sh
# MODULES
# The following modules are loaded before any boot hooks are
# run. Advanced users may wish to specify all system modules
# in this array. For instance:
# MODULES="piix ide_disk reiserfs"
MODULES="radeon"
# BINARIES
# This setting includes any additional binaries a given user may
# wish into the CPIO image. This is run last, so it may be used to
# override the actual binaries included by a given hook
# BINARIES are dependency parsed, so you may safely ignore libraries
BINARIES=""
# FILES
# This setting is similar to BINARIES above, however, files are added
# as-is and are not parsed in any way. This is useful for config files.
FILES="/etc/modprobe.d/broadcom.conf"
# HOOKS
# This is the most important setting in this file. The HOOKS control the
# modules and scripts added to the image, and what happens at boot time.
# Order is important, and it is recommended that you do not change the
# order in which HOOKS are added. Run 'mkinitcpio -H <hook name>' for
# help on a given hook.
# 'base' is _required_ unless you know precisely what you are doing.
# 'udev' is _required_ in order to automatically load modules
# 'filesystems' is _required_ unless you specify your fs modules in MODULES
# Examples:
## This setup specifies all modules in the MODULES setting above.
## No raid, lvm2, or encrypted root is needed.
# HOOKS="base"
#
## This setup will autodetect all modules for your system and should
## work as a sane default
# HOOKS="base udev autodetect block filesystems"
#
## This setup will generate a 'full' image which supports most systems.
## No autodetection is done.
# HOOKS="base udev block filesystems"
#
## This setup assembles a pata mdadm array with an encrypted root FS.
## Note: See 'mkinitcpio -H mdadm' for more information on raid devices.
# HOOKS="base udev block mdadm encrypt filesystems"
#
## This setup loads an lvm2 volume group on a usb device.
# HOOKS="base udev block lvm2 filesystems"
#
## NOTE: If you have /usr on a separate partition, you MUST include the
# usr, fsck and shutdown hooks.
HOOKS="base udev autodetect modconf block filesystems keyboard fsck"
# COMPRESSION
# Use this to compress the initramfs image. By default, gzip compression
# is used. Use 'cat' to create an uncompressed image.
#COMPRESSION="gzip"
#COMPRESSION="bzip2"
#COMPRESSION="lzma"
#COMPRESSION="xz"
#COMPRESSION="lzop"
#COMPRESSION="lz4"
COMPRESSION="cat"
# COMPRESSION_OPTIONS
# Additional options for the compressor
#COMPRESSION_OPTIONS=""
What do you think about? I uninstall nvidia-340xx-utils? Then I reboot and post the XOrg log?
Offline
Definitely yes, chances are that that would already fix your issues
Offline
Problem solved! The subtitles are displayed. Thank you very much.
pacman -Qs nvidia gives me:
local/libvdpau 1.1.1+3+ga21bf7a-1
Nvidia VDPAU library
Should I also remove it?
May I rename this post, because it is not linked to vlc? Something like "confusing nvidia/radeon installation".
Offline
You can keep that, vdpau is for certain video acceleration purposes and radeon supports it as well.
Editing the title to actually reflect the issue would be good indeed yes, while you are at it you can prepend [SOLVED] or similar to it, to indicate that the issue was resolved.
