As the title says. MC plays the first couple of seconds of audio and may or may not put up a still from the beginning of the video. And that's it. I can't kill it, can't open a terminal to kill it - nothing.

What version of MC?

Full version, please. 26.0.80, for example.

Update to 26.0.87 and report back, we've done a lot of work on the video renderer there, there is a good chance that it'll improve!
