Bug#798661: vlc: VLC only shows top-left part of the movie

Package: vlc
Version: 2.2.1-3
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

since I installed the big gcc5-transition and all the package updates coming along with it,
VLC is no longer working properly: When I open a movie, only the top-left part of the window
actually shows movie content. The rest of the windows is black, with the rest of the movie
not being visible. I tried both the XVideo and the GLX output module, I tried disabling
compositing in KWin, and I tried videos of different formats. The behavior is always
the same. I will attach a screenshot.
The same files used to work fine in VLC, and still work fine in mpv.

Kind regards,
Ralf
