[Bug 585643] [NEW] Video tears on Nvidia with compiz, but can be fixed with setting change

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: compiz

When watching a video in Lucid with an Nvidia 8400m and compositing
enabled, I get considerable video tearing, no matter what video
application I use.

However, if "Unredirect Fullscreen Windows" is enabled in the
CompizConfig Settings Manager, the problem is completely eliminated when
watching video full screen.

Since compiz is enabled by default, setting "unredirect fullscreen
windows" to true by default would improve the video experience for a lot
of Nvidia users.

** Affects: compiz (Ubuntu)
