I've found that XVideo bug filed as bug 147926. The reporter says it happens when you turn compiz on and then off, and I found that's true for me too, so probably that's what you and me were getting and it's unrelated to the "blinks". You may be interested to know that the latest NVIDIA drivers (169.09) fix that XVideo bug.

All:

I can confirm though that the latest NVIDIA drivers do NOT fix THIS bug. I've found work-arounds for all my other compiz problems though, so I'm going to start using it again. I'm going to run in TwinView mostly b/c I have two monitors, so I'll be able to confirm if Kraptor is right about it never happening with TwinView. Then if I have time I'll try his suggested work-around.
