It seems I'm still having this problem. I have desktop effects turned off but I'm using metacity compositor.. Video works fine when compositor is turned off, but when it's on, it's all black.. I can see the video when moving around the player window, but that's all. I've tried several formats/players.

I can see video when I set the video output to "no xv" in gstreamer-properties but then the playback is really choppy. So for now I just disable metacity compositor when I want to watch a video.
