Well,

this bug is also driving me crazy. how annoying it is to get this not fixed.

but ppl. maybe this will help you a little bit

start gconf-editor and go to totem:

change:
brightness 32639
contrast 16191
hue 32767
saturation 8135

well, the really annoying thing is if these values are changed by totem from time to time, also mplayer and others are affected.
it's normal since it depends on the video-driver.
i wonder that even these drivers are open-source this cannot get fixed. what a pity.
