My fix (or lack of correct setting) was to change settings > Preferences : Video Driver from X11-XV to X11.
I notices that there is a box next to it "Display for compositor" which is blank for me. I don't know what it is, but you may want to investigate it if you have some value in there (which may be causing your viewer to work but not the compositor). In any case, try setting your video driver to X11 if you haven't already tried that.
Sincerely,

Compositor video not working
For some weeks now I have been having bother with the compositor window.
The viewer works fine, and (on some occasions I think) the time-line
works fine. But there is only audio in the compositor.
At first I thought it was something to do with the video formats but
have just copped on to the fact that the problem exists for all files,
even ones I have successfully edited in the past.
I am using SVN sources I built back at the end of July on Kubuntu. I
have a 256Mb NVIDIA Quadro FX Go1400.
I have tried removing ~/.bcast and switching between x11 and x11-xv in
preferences. Thats all I can think of. Any suggestions?
Thanks.
