Problems with streched Videos on svideo-out and fglrx? Solution here!

Since a few months, after a fglrx-driver update, every video I tried to play appeared streched on the TV screen (the upper half of the image sctreched over the whole screen). If you experience a similiar problem just put this in the driver section of your xorg.conf:

Option "TexturedVideo" "on"
Option "TexturedVideoSync" "off"

You may also need these lines:

Option "VideoOverlay" "on"
Option "OpenGLOverlay" "off"
Option "OverlayOnCRTC2"

Hope I helped someone as I searched for a long time until finding this.

Cheers Sigi
