Hey all, when i switch from using vdpau in mplayer to any other video output in any other video player (xine, gstreamer, vlc, etc), i get corrupted video playback. it becomes choppy and my CPU gets eaten up. The only way to fix it is to restart X. My current system is:
[dankles@mercury ~]$ pacman -Qs nvidia

It happens now with the 195 nvidia driver and with the 190 driver i dont know aobut the 185 driver... though i'm not even sure if this is video driver related. Maybe the vdpau lib?
[dankles@mercury proc]$ pacman -Qs vdpau

Nvidia VDPAU libraryI dont know.... Any help would be awesome
