It would appear that it's the VDPAU decoding part that's causing the 
problem.  Using ffmpeg to decode it (Decoder set to 'Standard'), it 
doesn't matter whether the video renderer is set to OpenGL or VDPAU, it 
plays fine.

Using VDPAU as the decoder results in the observed issues. 
Unfortunately, it's not possible to decode with VDPAU and then choose 
the OpenGL renderer to completely check this.
