use of GStreamer videosink "xvimagesink" causes an immediate close of user session (KDE Plasma 5.27 /Alpine both 3.19 AND Edge)
When using KDE with X11, (on Intel X86_64 desktop, System Disk Alpine , both 3.19 and Edge)
gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc ! videoconvert ! xvimagesink
immediately terminates the user session, with return to sddm login screen
/var/log/messages only shows
Jan 18 15:20:05 [host] user.notice libddcutil[3617]: libddcutil terminating.
Jan 18 15:20:05 [host] authpriv.info : pam_unix(sddm:session): session closed for user
-
Does not happen if xvimagesink is replaced by ximagesink in KDE/X11
-
No problems with xvimagesink in KDE/Wayland.
