When I play a video with mplayer2 (also happens with tvtime)

I get the following display problem on screen 2 Did you try several video players with different backends? I usually install all video players that are available.
I think it is not a problem of the video player, but it's xserver fault.
with VLC I have the same problem, http://i39.tinypic.com/ncxod3.png
With 3d games I do not experience this issue, tested with neverball.
Also, with tvtime (video4linux, for displaying content through your tv pci/pcie card) I get the same problem.
Currently I don't have access to a video player. But IIRC they provide options how to display videos. Usually we use a mode that makes it impossible to take an 'averaged' screen shot, but there are other modes that are slower (enabling 'averaged' screen shots), but those could work anyway and sometimes those modes avoid some failure. Perhaps you could try options regarding to the way the video is displayed by X. No knowledge, just a shot in the dark. Ralf
