System freeze when playing video using VDPAU with OS radeon driver

Hi,

I've setup VDPAU as described in the wiki but when trying to play a h264 video the screen freezes after a couple of frames and the entire system freezes shortly thereafter.

Some Information on my setup:
MacPro ca. 2009
Radeon HD 5870 using the opensource radeon driver
Dualhead setup
mesa-vdpau installed, driver set as r600
Kernel parameter radeon.dpm=0 (if I don't the screen freezes instantly when playing the video so I at least get to see a couple of frames.)
Playing video without VDPAU works fine.

dmsg shows this:

Note: Just to try and exclude any obvious configuration mistakes I also tried hardware decoding from a ubuntu livecd with basically the same results.
I also tried the binary blob driver which doesn't crash but I can't say if it realy uses hardware decoding as for some reason the whole display was realy slow and xorg used 100% cpu (regardles of playing video)

Any help would be greatly appreciated
