Sorry, I didn't notice this message earlier. Thank you.

OK, so it is not about hardware acceleration. However something did change
between VLC versions in Debian what changes behaviour of software decoding.
The title of the bug report is wrong now, but I guess the issue of software
decoding should still be addressed. Should I send output of vlc -vvv for
VLC 3.0.2?


Still it is not clear who should address the problem of optirun + VLC-Qt.
