I just tested the actual solutions and I did not get good results, ATI
mobility radeon X300 :

Using "VideoOverlay" "on"     xvinfo works, playing video without compiz works, 
but playing video with compiz just gives a black screen.
Using "TexturedVideo" "on"     same as VideoOverlay, but the video appears with 
compiz and never stop flashing and appears over all windows (screenshot 
attached)
Using both   same as TexturedVideo.

Therefore, I set add back the linux-restricted-modules package to the
list since I'm not sure if this problem is just about driver options in
xorg.conf file.

** Description changed:

  using an up to date amd64 hardy and the repositorie's fglrx drivers
  
  The xv output is not working for video playback.
  
  Since the opengl bug it is quite annoying since the only output
  available is a very slow x11.
  
- Update : The fix for this bug is to add this in the "Device" section of
- your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
- 
-        Option "TexturedVideo" "on"
- 
-
