Hi!I have installed Debian 10.1 Buster 64 bit on my laptop and have the latest
stable version of VLC 3.0.8-0+deb10u1 installed

Periodically,a box with blurred colors appears on the to left corner of my
laptop screen when I play videos on VLC.It only happens when I am playing
videos on VLC and the box wont appear when I use another video package like
totem player or kaffeine.Check the link https://ibb.co/pvq0GbP  for the image
for this box.

The box will stay there until I move mouse or touch the touch-pad.Pressing any
key on keyboard doesn't work in eliminating the box.Only mouse movement or
touch-pad touch works.

Kindly assist in investigating and eliminating the frequent appearance of this
box.
