Some typical issues related to the visual domain are listed below. Solutions or debugging methods are proposed for these issues.

If your issue is not listed, try also looking in the articles in the visual or troubleshooting grids categories.

The psplash-drm userland splash screen is running and is then the DRM master, avoiding other DRM applications to access to DRM/KMS. Please stop this psplash-drm application with the command below before running your use case:

Template:Board$ psplash-drm-quit

Maybe the GPU reserved memory area in the kernel device tree is not aligned with the board DDR memory size, please have a look at the "gpu_reserved" entry in the kernel device tree, and update it if necessary.

Weston is using pixman software composition instead of GPU hardware composition. This may be because you have not accepted the EULA at the beginning of the build...

Template:Board$ cat /etc/default/weston
#Autogenerated
OPTARGS=--use-pixman

Please comment the content of the file /etc/default/weston or delete it.

Template:Board$ systemctl stop Weston
Failed to stop Weston.service: Unit Weston.service not loaded.

Please remove the capital letter in the word Weston. The correct command is

Template:Board$ systemctl restart Template:Highlighteston
GStreamer
There may be a timestamping problem, or this computer is too slow.

This message is typically displayed when the GStreamer A/V sync drops some frames. This may be due to a decoder that is too slow, badly timestamped buffers, or a badly formed container (.ts, .3gp, .mp4, .avi, ...).
To proceed with investigations, refer to the article How to profile video framerate.
