All video players display black screen
Solution 1:
I'm at a loss. The best suggestions I have is try re-installing the drivers or trying the non-proprietary nv driver. If the problem is still there with the nv driver, then it is most likely not a driver issue.
Good Luck
Solution 2:
I found this worked.
