Hi,
I just want to specify a few things:
1) For me, SMPlayer has to be started before a video conversation. So I
can start skype, chat and do other things in the mean time. If I start a
video conversation then I run SMPlayer, Skype video still flickers blue
where as the opposite works out.
2) I originally used GTK UVC Video Viewer in place of SMPlayer and the
same effect happened...
3) An important note in my case is that I am running Kubuntu 12.04 (with KDE
back-ports enabled)
However I have had the same problem on 12.04 with KDE back-ports NOT
enabled.
4) My computer is a Dell Dimension 3000 with Intel I865G - Extreme Graphics 2
See link for more detailed specs:
http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/dim3000/en/SM/specs.htm
Because of this I noticed that the card has no hardware acceleration....
just software.
See link for explanation:

Quote: "The tiler, or zone renderer, design precludes (make
impossible) the use of a hardware T&L engine".
Hope this sheds light on the matter.
