This happens after upgrading from F25 to F26, when playing a video --
no image; only a green screen. Any ideas?

Which GPU do you have and what is your setting in vlc's
"Tools->Preferences->Video->Output"?

Since having upgraded to F26[1], I facing similar issues as you describe
them on 2 Haswell's IGPUs.

Playing with "Output", I found the only working one seems to be
"XVideo output (XCB)" while all the rest - comprising "Automatic" - seem
dysfunctional.

[1] I did not have these issue on the same machines with FC25. One of these
machine is in a dual boot config with F25, so I can try FC25 (when time
permits).

Thanks, Ralf. By setting "Output" to "XVideo output (XCB)", instead of
"Automatic", did the trick. But should this be considered a bug?

IMO, yes, definitely.

The problem however is, it's hard to tell which component (package) is the actual cause. vlc is involved but from what I see from the error messages vlc emits, there are more bugs involved underneath.
