David Chisnall <***@FreeBSD.org> has reassigned Bugzilla Automation
<***@FreeBSD.org>'s request for maintainer-feedback to
***@FreeBSD.org:
Bug 208185: [multimedia/vlc] Qt5 version is completely broken
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=208185



--- Description ---
With the Qt5 option enabled, vlc:

- Does not accept mouse input on the image (double clicking to switch between
window and full-screen mode doesn't work, neither does using the mouse for DVD
menu navigation)

- Crops videos in full-screen mode (see:
https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/16476 )

I spent several hours trying to debug these problems before discovering that
simply replacing the vlc package with vlc-qt4 makes them go away. The Qt5
option should not have been enabled by default for the package.

Note that the cropping issue is actually a QT5 problem [1]. Applying the
changes from [2] seems to fix it.

Now that one aspect is in the tree, who's in charge of changing multimedia/vlc
to disable the QT5 default ?

I'll take care of the QT5 default. Thanks!
