I have to rectify a little bit my affirmation above, everything I said about the video issues is right, but the problem with the video lagging and blinking and re-scalling specially when you move the cursor while watching in full screen mode look like a GNOME problem, not a NVIDIA proprietary driver problem, because after setting up the Nouveau open source driver again, the same problem happens when watching video in full screen, so better to setup the Nvidia driver with the workaround than use the open source drive that does not enable all the acceleration features your video hardware has.
