youtube fullscreen not working

iaqoube · 2019-10-07 21:49:10

Hey,

When I try to go full-screen on Youtube, my browser goes full-screen but not the video.
Also the browser hangs when I try to do anything after that.

I'm using Firefox but I also tried on Chromium which didn't work either.
I also tried different sites, also to no avail.

It used to work a week ago when I still had a messed up permission system(always root).
But there's alot of other stuff that changed, so it might not be the reason.

I thought that maybe I need to add a group, but `video` is the only one that sounds like it could do something and my user is already part of it.

Does anyone out here now what I could try?
Thanks in advance.

You have not included any diagnostic or log outputs https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=57855

There are a lot of different logs. Which one should I post?

loqs · 2019-10-07 22:31:49

The journal for one boot in which you experienced the issue.

seth · 2019-10-07 22:32:25

loginctl session-status
sudo journalctl -b

And your Xorg log (unless this is a wayland session)

Also check the sytem load when playing videos - browser videos are notoriously not HW accelerated. You might want to use eg. youtube-viewer.

Just retried and the only thing there is around that time in journal -b

This is not how it works, https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=57855

ok heres the whole file https://pastebin.com/0Zp0RnCc

So this is a hybrid AMD/intel system what makes details about the actual GPU setup (display server, reverse/prime config,…) all the more important. Notably which chip is actually being used when this happens.

Hey, I'm terribly sorry for the late response. Once again life got in the way.
Anyway, if you can excuse this, here is some more information:

I'm using Xorg version 1.20.5
here is the exact output of `Xorg -version`

And its the chip running is always the intel one from what I understand:

$ glxinfo | grep "OpenGl renderer"
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) UHD Graphics 620 (Kabylake GT2)

The Xorg log would be far more telling than the version (which is expected to be up-to-date anyway)
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xorg#General

Assuming there's no prime condition and the AMD chip is "just there": remove xf86-video-intel and see what happens.

iaqoube · 2019-10-10 08:24:30

Tried uninstalling but it wasn't there to begin with.
So I tried if it'd work when installing fx86-video-intel but it didn't.

And here's Xorg.0.log:
https://pastebin.com/Xqn7pVZc

Looks like it doesn't find any video drivers and falls back to default (with or without xf86-video-intel installed).

That log is a week old, so probably from when things were still working?

Oops sorry, I took the one from /var/log/

Here's the real one:

The layout is pretty simple, the only output is wired to the intel chip.
Since you've meanwhile tried modesetting and intel X11 driver, I'd suggest to look at the kernel, ie. either downgrade it to the previously used version (that's ok, the kernel is mostly isolated from the userspace) but there's also mesa related https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=249639

You could try to deactivate HW acceleration in the browser or just

LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=true firefox # ensure there's no running browser process
