@philm, does this update change anything about gpu hardware acceleration? I told you this because after the update, Brave browser and Chromium show strange artifacts on screen while browsing as I shown before in this thread:
Even appear weird images as seen here:
Disabling hardware acceleration in browser (Settings → Systems → Disable hardware acceleration when available) the problems disappear.
And Videolan VLC before the update played AVI (xvid codec) or MKV (264 or 265 codec) files without problem. Hardware acceleration was set in “Auto”. After the update plays MKV files but not AVI, there’s sound but only a black screen.
Disabling hardware acceleration in Tools → Preferences → Input & Codecs → Codecs → Hardware-accelerated decoding plays AVI files again.
And seems I’m not the only one with this issue:
All this happen after the update. Brave, Chromium or VLC weren’t updated, so must be caused by another package. If I restore the timeshift snapshot made before the update, browsers work without problems and VLC plays all files as usual.
