Bug#904706: vlc: vlc window becomes low resolution when dragging the window out of screen

Package: src:vlc
Version: 3.0.3-1-0+deb9u1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

when the vlc window is dragged out of screen (or almost out of screen),
it sort of goes into low resolution. I does not switch back to its
normal resolution afterwards. Other instances are not affected and
things go back to normal when window is closed and vlc relaunched.

Everything inside window borders, all text and images, appear as if
displayed on a low resolution screen. This includes the main menu and the
status bar at the bottom, as well as the controls (play, pause, sound
level,...).

I only have one screen, I can't move the mouse out of it, so it's not
related to a second screen with a lower resolution.

I can't tell when this appeared. It could have been there before
3.0.3-1-0+deb9u1 and I didn't notice.

FWIW, I'm using Mate. It could be unrelated to vlc, but I don't see this
with other softwares, even other Qt softwares (QGis, FFADO mixer).

I don't see anything in relevant when adding -vvv to the command line.

Please tell me if I can provide any useful information.

Jérôme
