Bug#765969: [vlc] green line under some Mpeg-4 XVID videos

[Francesco Muzio]

Package: vlc
Version: 2.2.0~pre4-1
Severity: normal

Dear maintainers,

After the latest upgrade of VLC in testing branch I have expirienced a 
problem when I playing some avi file with an XVID content.

Some video shows an horizontal green line at the bottom of the video. 
The green line is seen especially if I play a fullscreen 16:9 video on a 
16:10 (or 4:3, 5:4) screen.

Not all, but most videos shows this problem. I have tried VLC on i386 
and amd64 machines ad the bug affect both architectures

I have found an already online video to reproduce the problem
