[resolved] video only works on some applications

I just set up Arch Linux on a laptop with Intel Iris graphics:

$ lspci | grep VGA
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Raptor Lake-P [Iris Xe Graphics] (rev 04)

$ uname -a
Linux t14 6.9.7-arch1-1 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Fri, 28 Jun 2024 04:32:50 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I'm running the minimalistic dwm as a window manager on top of X (no Wayland).

Video output works with some applications (Firefox, mplayer) but fails on others (obs, mpv, ffplay, cheese). I tried to figure out the differences between the applications using ldd, but didn't find a clue there.

Streaming from a video source via ffmpeg into a file works without any issues.

Has anybody an idea in which direction to look for the issue?

Never mind, I had to remove the xf86-video-intel driver.
