Videos tear when I play them with xv extension. I enabled vsync with Catalyst Control Center and running 'aticonfig --initial --input=/etc/X11/xorg.conf --overlay-type=Xv', but the video still tears. I tried several Xorg.conf settings but without any improvement. Removing Xorg.conf does not change anything.

I have this problem since Hardy with a Radeon HD 3650. Even Windows XP with Catalyst driver tears. Some time ago I switched to a Radeon HD 4670 (see lspci-vvnn.log), but even this card tears.

Maybe this problem have something to do with the on-board Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 3100 of the Intel DG33TL [1] mainboard.
