Bug Description
Binary package hint: compiz
First of all, I use the latest version of Compiz (1:0.5.
Whenever playing a video using the Xv video output mode, X crashes and restarts as soon as I go to another workspace. It doesn't matter which plugin I use, cube, plane, wall, it always happens. I can, however, remember a time when this didn't happen to me. Must have been at the point when Tribe 5 came out.
Oh, and one more thing, although it might be a little hard to actually perform:
Because of the nature of Xvideo, it is impossible to project it properly on a cube, anyway. Discouraging users about using Xv might be the easiest choice, I guess.
