Bug#1021032: vlc: playing mp4 videos results in a black screen
Control: retitle -1 vlc: playing videos results in a black screen
Control: severity -1 grave
Ran into this today after installing daily Sid updates. Was fine
yesterday. I think that some updates from yesterday, or perhaps the day
before may have been delayed until today due to a dependency issue, so
that may explain why I've only just experienced this.
This is not limited to mp4, I've also tried avi & mpg.
Logs indicate video format conversion failure, as per the original
reporter's logs.

As you can see, mostly minor Qt updates.
I have not tried doing any builds/bisecting (yet).
