MC Reezy, did you apply one of the workarounds? You may need to remove
libvdpau1 and reinstall the Ubuntu version. I followed what pst007x
(turone) wrote on 2012-04-02. He provided the link to:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/117127/flash-video-appears-blue. The fix
at the top involves adding a repository "ppa:tikhonov/misc" to use a
special patched version of libvdpau1. To revert back to the Ubuntu
libvdpau1, I disabled the repository and then followed the steps to
enable proposed updates. Here's what I did:

Open Update Manager. Click on "Settings", then click on the "Other Software" tab.
Uncheck (or remove) the tikhonov repository.
Remove libvdpau1 at the command line with "sudo apt-get remove libvdpau1".
Check that flash videos (e.g. YouTube) are "blue" again.
Open Update Manager. Click on "Settings", then click on the "Updates" tab.
Check the checkbox next to "Pre-released updates (precise-proposed)". Close Software Sources.
At Update Manager, click on "Check".
There should be about 59 or so updates that come up. If you just want libvdpau1, unselect all the updates by clicking the box next to proposed, then look for libvdpau1 in the list and check it.
Click install updates. Once the update(s) is installed, you can go back to software sources and deselect proposed updates.
Check that flash videos (e.g. YouTube) are fixed.

Of course, if you applied a different fix, you will have to follow
different steps to undo what you did.
