The sorting algorithm ("hot") does not favor new posts. It's keeping two 1-hour-old posts below posts that are 6-days-old
  • The posts eventually did show up at the top after two hours and receiving 8 or 9 upvotes.

    This delay wasn't always there. Just last week, the posts would show up at the top after 3-5 minutes.

  • In case people might get the wrong idea, I only post pics/clips of female martial artists who who have given me their permission. I do not steal content from Instagram.

    ...it has the same amount of upvotes as one of the posts I made today.

    What's the issue here? Why won't the last post show up at or near the top of the page?

    [Resolved] After updating through both APT and the Software Store, I can't play mp4 videos with VLC anymore. The screen goes blank for a second or two then the audio starts playing without the video..
  • Thank you, this resolved my issue.

    I read the wiki and changed "Hardware-accelerated decoding" to "VA-API video decoder".

    My original problem was caused by the fact that this was set to automatic, now that it's set to "VA-API video decoder" VLC is able to play mp4 files again without any issues.

  • I disabled hardware acceleration and VLC is able to play mp4 files again; however, is there a way to turn on hardware acceleration without getting these errors?

    Update:

    Changing “Hardware-accelerated decoding” to “VA-API video decoder” fixed the issue. Now VLC is able to play mp4 files with hardware acceleration without any issues.

  • Tried it. I don't think there's anything to upgrade:

  • I'm using Debian 12, Ryzen 7 5700X processor, and Radeon HD 5450 graphics card. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling VLC but it didn't resolve the issue. Here's an excerpt from the VLC's log file:

    >glconv_vaapi_x11 error: vaDeriveImage: operation failed > >main error: video output creation failed > >main error: failed to create video output > >avcodec info: Using G3DVL VDPAU Driver Shared Library version 1.0 for hardware decoding

    How do I resolve this issue?

    New posts that have been around for an hour aren't appearing in my community when sorted by 'Hot'. They can however be seen if I change the sorting to 'New'. This issue just appeared today
  • Up until yesterday, new posts would show up at the top of the page (sort type: hot) after a couple of minutes (and getting two or three upvotes). Today, however, despite an hour passing by and the posts receiving 3-4 upvotes, they didn't show up at the top of the page.

    At the time of writing (four hours after posting this support request), the two posts I made on my community are now showing up at the top of the page but why did it take so long?
