Seeking through H.264 video with the internal player results in corrupted framebuffers with VDPAU & nvidia drivers 358.09

[kungfujesus06@…]

When seeking through h264 videos, I now get this annoying corruption that doesn't disappear until a new set of keyframes. Seeking within mplayer or things based on newer versions of FFmpeg don't appear to cause this issue, but Mythtv's usage of FFmpeg + the VDPAU API may differ from other applications.

I've posted a screenshot of the issue here: ​http://i.imgur.com/3kT0Uyd.png

nVidia versions 352.xx are ok, I was on 352.41, I then upgraded opensuse Tumbleweed and thought of upgrading nvidia, too, to 364.19 and the problem manifested itself. I installed 352.79 and it's ok again.

I should point out that I had tried to upgrade nvidia to a higher version (I think it was 355.11) some months ago with the same result (I mean that it didn't happen due to the system upgrade).

Here's a thread of me reporting it on Nvidia's forums:

No apparent issues with new VDPAU code in master (0.31). In the unlikely event this is still an issue, please open another ticket with full logs.
