video tearing with intel iris graphics

Asked by Dieter

I am using a intel NUC8BEB as video player for my 4k tv.

After updating 2 weeks ago video tearing came up.
When playing videos in the browser (chrome) or with vlc there is a heavy video tearing.

My actual kernel:
$ uname -r
5.3.0-40-generic

The i915 driver is used for the iris 655:
$ lspci -nnk | grep -A3 "\[03..\]:"
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Iris Plus Graphics 655 [8086:3ea5] (rev 01)
        DeviceName: CPU
        Subsystem: Intel Corporation Iris Plus Graphics 655 [8086:2074]
        Kernel driver in use: i915

If I play the same video with kodi there is no video tearing. What is the difference here?
And if I use my notebook with an intel 620 gfx playing the same video with vlc (Kubuntu) there is no video tearing.

Is there any bug in the iris plus grafic?

Regards
Dieter

Hi Andrew,
sorry, it did not help so far, but usb command was not found (in German "Befehl nicht gefunden".

$ sudo update-pciids
Downloaded daily snapshot dated 2020-03-17 03:15:02

$ sudo update-usbids
sudo: update-usbids: Befehl nicht gefunden

Should update-usbids be in the usbutils package?

$ sudo apt search usbutils

Is there a package to be installed for running update-usbids?
