I checked the playback profile. It uses vdpau normal with Temporal 2X as
primary and Temporal 1X as fall-back.

Only nvidia-current, nvidia-current-modaliase and nvidia-settings 260.19.29
are installed. All the rest is not installed, particularly the x.173 and
x.195.

Just in case, all visual effects are disable. This one was creating a lot of
issues and make the video stutter or not working for HD.
