Bug Description

i have the same bug than here : https://gitlab.xfce.org/apps/parole/-/issues/108

Xubuntu 22.04, parole 4.16.0,
System:
  Host: chris-NUC7i3BNH Kernel: 5.15.0-46-generic x86_64 bits: 64
    compiler: gcc v: 11.2.0 Desktop: Xfce 4.16.0 tk: Gtk 3.24.23
    info: xfce4-panel, plank wm: xfwm 4.16.1 vt: 7 dm: LightDM 1.30.0
    Distro: Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish)
HD graphic 620

The screen is black with video .mkv, .mp4 and .webm.
If i change tools > preferences > Output video > from "automatic" to "Windows system X (X11/XShm/Xv)" some videos .mkv / .mp4 become ok (but not all of them).
