Interesting. Thanks for all the feedback - the end of the thread from June introduced some confusion, and the recent replies have confirmed for me that a hard and fast solution is not yet known. 

I'm running xorg-server 2:1.6.0-0ubuntu14 (1.6.0), so if the problem exists in X, it's in 1.6.0 as well as 1.5.3. My video card is not capable of VDPAU, so that's not a path I can go down. 

I'll look into upgrading X to see if that helps, although the thought of upgrading X makes me nervous (not something I enjoy being on bleeding edge of...). 

In terms of the patch itself, I'd be interested in trying it out, but frankly I'm not sure how to apply it. Since it's a .c file, I assume that means I would need to compile something? Yeah, I'm out of my element here (I run myth based off of repositories for a reason...).
