Red video as it now shows in Epiphany

Hi.
If I check this video in Epiphany, it appears red:

I attached a screenshot of how it looks like.

Thanks to fix this issue.

Thanks for your report.

Could you provide more details like what version of Epiphany and distribution are you using?

Does the problem appear all the time? Only on youtube or on other players too?

Some youtube videos will have this issue while other youtube videos won't have it. I've seen gstreamer having this issue on some videos as well.

I use ArchLinux and Epiphany version 3.38.1.

I'll have to check again, but on a different computer with same software, I didn't have this issue, so it might be hardware related.

I'm having this issue on a computer having an AMD CPU with an ATI graphics card while the issue is not there (I'll confirm when I do a system update to make sure) on the computer with an Intel CPU.

@antoyo is this still an issue?

Comment 5 antoyo 2021-04-14 10:45:50 PDT

It seems to have been fixed recently, but since I stopped using a webkit2gtk browser, I'm not sure. I'll switch back to it to confirm.

Here are more details:

* on Wayland, the issue was never there (though I've seen another issue where the whole screen becomes of red colors, which is similar to the linked issue, even though that issue was for X11)
* slomo looked a bit into this issue for me, and I was able to reproduce the issue using `gst-play-1.0 --videosink glimagesink`, but the issue disappear when using `GST_GL_PLATFORM=egl` which made him believe it was a bug in the interaction between the driver and GLX.

I confirm this is not an issue anymore.
