Bug#843490: blender: Movie clip editor does not update video view when playing (fixed in 2.78)

[Matti Hamalainen]

Package: blender
Version: 2.77.a+dfsg0-9
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream

Dear Maintainer,

When in Blender's "movie clip editor", for example when doing motion tracking,
the video view does not update when playing the clip. It does update when
manually moving the position cursor, however, but this makes it impossible to
actually see the video clip playing.

The issue is present in Debian packaged 2.77a, but seems to be fixed in the
recently released upstream version 2.78 (and 2.78a).
