Tearing (portrait monitor - nvidia)

Hi,
I'm using the nvidia driver with a 2 monitor set up(though if nouveau fixes the issue, I'll most definitely switch), I'm experiencing a really bad tearing issue on one of my rotated monitor (portrait) where as the landscape monitor doesn't tear at all. I'm not really sure how to go about fixing the issue, is this an issue with the driver, incorrect xorg configuration or something else entirely? If any would could give a hand that'd be great.

Re: Tearing (portrait monitor - nvidia)

While I am not saying this is the last word, typically only one monitor can support hardware accelerated video overlay (as when watching a movie or video clip).
