VLC version 3.0.9.2 Vetinari (3.0.9.2-0-gd4c1aefe4d)
Compiled by buildd on lgw01-amd64-060.buildd (Apr 9 2020 19:29:44)

Note that red mushroom is shifted down, about 10%; like the layer with red color is shifted down, so green area is at the top of video screen and you can see that colors are not right in the whole picture but that is not clearly visible. Compare with screenshot without this issue (later in the report)
I see this issue on my notebook too. Kernel is 5.15.0.

Workarround is to change HW accelerator (or to disable it) or to change Video output device; for example, "XVideo output (XCB)" works OK...
