Reproduction steps

While playing a game (Valorant, in my case) I can never play anything with mpv.
Multiple bugs:

  • With --no-config --gpu-api=vulkan
    Error: Blue screen.

    logblue.txt

  • With --no-config --gpu-api=vulkan --vo=gpu-next
    Error: Black screen.
    image
    logblack.txt

Expected behavior

Normal playback

Actual behavior

Assertion Failed!
Blue/Black Screen
no playback

Sample files

Happens with any file

Research direction

Start with the attached logblue.txt and logblack.txt files and inspect the assertion in libplacebo/.../gpu_tex.c. Reproduce playback while Valorant is running using the two Vulkan commands, comparing the normal GPU and gpu-next paths. Done means playback works without the assertion or blue/black screen.
