            Bug ID: 366626
           Summary: Video frame remains on screen even after moving to
                    another item
           Product: digikam
           Version: 5.1.0
          Platform: Mint (Ubuntu based)
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Preview
          Assignee: digikam-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: mr.mahon.pl at gmail.com

When I play videos from Digikam 5.1.0, album view, They play just fine in the
preview zone, but when I move on to a different item (next/previous image or
video, or to a different album, etc.) the video remains on screen (although
frozen on the last displayed frame) exactly in the very same position and
doesn't disappear even if I alt-tab to a different application/window. It keeps
covering the part of my screen until I close digikam.

I guess it may be something of more general nature than precisely
digikam-related, because I had a similar problem long time ago with one of
video players, but now am experiencing it only with Digikam. 

Taking screenshots with the built-in system tool doesn't show these stuck video
frames, even though they were still on my screen. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch digikam
2. Enter album view, choose an album with a video
3. Play the video
4. Press the key for next item (space) or previous item (backspace)

Actual Results:  
The previewed item changes but the video frame still covers the part of the
screen 

Expected Results:  
The item changes and the video frame disappears and no longer covers any part
of the screen
