Let's close this. Both bugs intermingled in this bug (nvidia driver bug
and vlc bug before 2.2.3) were fixed.

I had exactly this problem with blocky playback after I upgraded from
14.04 to 16.04. It affected all movie file types and any player that I
tried. After reading this report I replaced the nvideo driver 361.42 by
the previous version available (340.96) - and the problem went away
completely.
By th
That's correct. VLC's vaapi and vdpau decoding seem broken in 16.04 but
work fine in pure software mode. mpv's vdpau works without issue.

Title:
Alex, if you play an h.264 video file using "mpv --hwdec=vdpau
--vo=vdpau" it has no blockiness, and if you play the same file with VLC
using vdpau as the hardware-accelerated decoder and the video output
module, it has the same issue? If so, try playing the file with the
output module set to xcb-x
3.0 daily builds from the PPA do not have this problem (though they
don't export menus properly in Unity), so I think it's safe to assume
the version in Ubuntu sources is the issue.

I can duplicate this on Nvidia 364.15, also thought it was due to
differences in VLC between 14.04 and 16.04, but perhaps not. However,
mpv with vdpau works fine for me, no blockiness.

I think this is a regression in the Nvidia Vdpau driver between 352 and
361, or possibly 346 and 352. It's not a VLC problem because it also
affects MPV.
The issue described in comments 3 and 4 is different, and is fixed in
VLC 2.2.2-5, which will be synced to Ubuntu from Debian at some point.

VLC 2.2.2 exhibits a known bug with VDPAU-VA-GL. Update to VLC 2.2.3 (or
Debian's 2.2.2-5) if you use the later.
That being noted, if your problem exists with MPV, then that is some
other bug. Something is wrong either in VAAPI hardware drivers, or in
VDPAU-VA-GL. Please reassign.

Gotcha! The problem is in the input. Once I disable the HW-accelerated
decoding, I don't get any more blockiness.

BTW, in Input/Codecs, please switch Hardware-accelerated decoding to
"disable". This will change the decoder to FFMPEG-MT.

Summary: the default video player in Ubuntu is Videos (the app "totem")
and it can play this video just fine.
Still, it would be great if the problem in VLC gets fixed. VLC uses its own
audio/video decoding software.
Videos (Totem) uses "gstreamer" and it works. Mplayer2 and ffplay use something
It looks like an issue specific to this class of videos.
Whether a video file is .avi or .mp4, it can have the audio/video compressed in
different ways.
Since the test video is 190MB, you can post the video details. Install _ffmpeg_
and run _ffmpeg -i myvideo.avi_.
Here is the output:
