I’m not sure off-hand since I’m not too familiar with VLC.
I would imagine it could be an issue in a graphics driver at the kernel (amdgpu?) or user level (mesa?). It could also be a problem in something higher up.
I would recommend posting an issue in the VLC repo and see if you can get better support that way.
Maybe Thriftbooks? They do offer shipping to Canada but it’s not always cheap.
