Video player in 18.04 shows a psychedelic mixture instead of a clear video
I had the same problem when playing a MP4 video, totem/gnome-videos displays a purplish corrupted video output and I have done the following:
From the terminal sudo apt-get remove gstreamer1.0-vaapi
I have done a test and yes, the problem has been fixed now I can see the video correctly.
So the problem is gstreamer1.0-vaapi
Best Regards,
