Apparently it's also a bug in the Nvidia driver still. This issue needs to be fixed separately in each Xorg driver.

This is probably to do with composite unredirecting... In compiz we have a workaround to avoid this tearing by disallowing unredirect ("bypass") in known problematic video players. But I'm not sure if mutter has such a workaround/whitelist/blacklist we can use.
