SUSE keeps crashing after the end of a video

Regardless of whether I play something on VLC or you tube, the computer freez\es after it’s finished playing.

Any ideas?

I tried this on firefox and it seemed to work but it still crashes for chromium.

more information is needed
currently there is a bug in chromium that prevents video’s from being played
https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1095545
are only web browsers effected
have you done a full vendor change to packman?

I have done the full change to packman.

Both web browser AND vlc are affected.

tell us your hardware and drivers used

sudo lspci | grep VGA

tell us your repo list

zypper lr -d

I’ve noticed issues with opengl and vlc

[00007f0fa4001f70] egl_x11 gl error: cannot select OpenGL API

but haven’t expirienced system crashes
run vlc in a console and post the output

>vlc /path/to/video.mp4

01:00.0 **VGA** compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GP102 [GeForce GTX 1080 Ti] (rev a1)

you have the nvidia reposetory but nouveau seams to be in use do you have the nvidia driver installed?

zypper se -si nvidia

as you have an nvidia card you should use vdpau with vlc install it

zypper in vlc-vdpau

then startup vlc select options in the input and codecs section select vdpau as the preffered decoder

keep in mind that nither vdpau nor va-api work with nouveau
https://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/VideoAcceleration/

VP1/2/3/4/5 all require firmware to operate that is presently extracted from the NVIDIA binary driver. We cannot redistribute the firmware directly in linux-firmware because NVIDIA’s license forbids redistribution of parts of their driver.

so to get hardware decoding you need the nvidia propiatory driver

When looking for nvidia, I get the following:

Scratch that, it all works now. Cheers.
