SInce you are using overlay Xv as far as compiz can tell your video
doesn't actually exist and it is drawing on top of a black window, thus
the solid black shadow. If you tried with mplayer it would show a blue
shadow because it would be drawing on top of a blue window.

Your driver needs to support and use textured Xv by default on your
video card.

** Package changed: compiz (Ubuntu) => xserver-xorg-video-ati (Ubuntu)
