[vo/opengl/wayland] error occurred on the display fd: closing file descriptor

Using vo=opengl hwdec=vaapi

[ghost]

No idea. Something strange fails at an unknown location?

hwdec=vaapi

This won't work at all on Wayland.

hey, try "--vo=x11".
It works on my Archlinux.

[rickysarraf]

Yes. -vo=x11 works. But is wayland as a '-vo' supported ?

[ricardomv]

I think this is fixed in 3.18.2 at least i don't have this issue anymore.

Can't reproduce this issue. Is there any new information?

[Manouchehri]

Using -vo wayland was working for me several months ago, haven't been able to reproduce this in Wayland.

I am closing this issue, feel free to reopen it again if it still happens.
