Title:
  nvidia-current gives no video in videoplayers

Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  After buying and installing my new video card (a Geforce GT220) I have
  the following problem:

  I get no image/video in the media players (totem, vlc, etc). But when
  I go to "System-> Administration-> NVIDIA X Server Settings " then
  suddenly the image/video appears. As I shall open another video file,
  the image/video is blank again. Till I turn to the "NVIDIA X Server
  Settings".

  This is a software bug in de nvidia-current driver?

  The Open-GL is running perfect, Linux games and Windows game (with
  wine) are running perfect. But every time I want to see a movie I have
  to open the NVIDIA settings...

  I have tested this in a clean install of Ubuntu 10.04 and 10.10 and
  have the same problem.

  a demo of my problem:
