Eglglesink white screen ?

[Peter Maersk-Moller]

Thanks for the suggestion Stefan although I knew. VirtualBox on OS X has no
2-D acceleration and I think that means no Xv although it does has 3-D
support. Looking into what to do there. Anyway my problem is autovideosink
on a default Ubuntu installation selects eglglesink and it doesn't work.
