I've been seeing panel shadow being drawn over fullscreen video in 13.04 as well. Not sure if it happened due to a notifiaction or not. i had one machine where it just seemed to happen at all times no matter what in smplayer or totem. I ended up doing: dpkg-divert --local --rename --divert /usr/share/unity/6/panel-shadow.png_disabled --add /usr/share/unity/6/panel-shadow.png

to just get rid of the panel shadow completely.
