Cannot confirm with Chrome 19.0.1084.15 beta (in today's updade), once HW acceleration is enabled, I still get the wrong tint. Looking at Chromium's revisions within current and two previous betaversions – http://build.chromium.org/f/chromium/perf/dashboard/ui/changelog.html?url=%2Ftrunk%2Fsrc&range=129054%3A130829&mode=html – I haven't found any Flash video related fixes, at least not for the current NPAPI version.

An update for Nvidia driver, v295.40, was also released today – once I have updated the driver, I've got correct tint in Firefox with hardware acceleration and without any other tweaks (mms.cfg, VDPAU_NVIDIA_NO_OVERLAY). This was, however, only temporary since the new driver wasn't fully loaded, after the reboot all went back to the "normal" state.

Reiterating my previous post about VDPAU_NVIDIA_NO_OVERLAY with EnableLinuxHWVideoDecode=1, Flash Player tends to become gradually unstable over time and often crashes on some operations (video seeking), so I can't fully recommend this workaround – but your experience may vary.
