I am having this exact problem. Mint 16 on amd64 with Firefox 26 and fglrx (13.101) drivers; embed mode produces the "flimmer" effect, turning it off makes things work fine (testing with sliverlight5.1 on US Netflix.) It might be worth noting that the distortion begins immediately, before video playback even starts; even Netflix's red loading screen with the progress bar comes out scrambled. I originally ran into this on 0.2.3, but updating to 0.2.4.1 hasn't helped.

Turning on windowlessMode seems to have no effect. Additionally turning on linuxWindowlessMode seems to stablize the image, but then large parts of it are obscured by black boxes. Turning embed off fixes things, but of course at the cost of running in a separate window, which is less than ideal.

I have attached the output of glxinfo; I'll post a second comment with my firefox output attached, since it seems I'm only allowed one attachment per comment.
