Baka-Mplayer doesn't show image after Qt5 update

[ghost]

After upgrading my system to Qt 5.7 and setting things up to look ok, I run into this problem. After deleting Baka-Mplayer.ini file in ~/.config the color changed to this. I even tried uninstalling and reinstalling but to no avail.

Audio works fine, default mpv works fine. VLC also seems to work fine.

EDIT: This happens only when Qt5 Style is set to "gtk2" through qt5ct.

I'm on Manjaro XFCE with Compiz and Emerald decorator.

Any ideas?

Very strange, I believe I'm on qt 5.7 as well but I'm not experiencing this. Was baka recompiled after the update? Sometimes that has implications.

It wasn't and as I mentioned in my original post edit, it only occurs with gtk2 style in qt5ct.

Same issue here with Arch Linux and baka-mplayer 2.0.4-2.

Exporting QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=qt5ct and setting the gtk2 style in the Qt5 Configuration Tool qt5ct seems to be the trigger.

I noticed that the video is visible if hardware acceleration via vdpau is used instead of vaapi.

EDIT: Using baka-mplayer-git from the AUR did not help.

This doesn't seem to be working for me or I'm doing something wrong. How do you choose to use vdpau on Baka-Mplayer?

@GrandGamer:

See https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Hardware_video_acceleration#Installing_VA-API for details. Also install libvdpau-va-gl as the backend for vaapi.

Afterwards you have to edit the file ~/.config/bakamplayer.ini and set the hwdec and vo options:

    "mpv": {
        "hwdec": "vdpau",
        [...]
        "vo": "vdpau",
    },

That worked like a charm, thank you!
