Same prob here. I've a Savage4.These images show my situation almost exactly. The only difference for me is that I have the distortion on the left side and there are only two 'zones' of the image (one distorted - on the left side, and one good - on the right side) as opposed to the three shown here.
It seems to happen when an application is using overlay (watching tv, video players...)
The only different thing is that I get the distorted region on the RIGHT of the image.
I wish I could film it in a camera and show you the effect... but I've no camera. :(
I'll try to describe it my own way:
even frames: perfect image
odd frames: parts of one side of the image showing on the other part, and with large dimensions, showing 2 times, one on the center and the other one on the side. These "parts" are actually a rectangular region of the untouched side of the image with some horizontal lines removed randomly, and some lines displaced a bit on the x axis.
I've attached 2 images showing the effect. *** These ARE NOT real images **** They have been created by me using Gimp. They correspond to my own representation of how the effect looks like. I hope these could be useful.

Have you been able to view the video in a smaller window and have it appear correctly? I'm starting to think this might be some sort of buffer overflow, or loop counter rollover type issue.

PS: I use the savage4 driver from http://www.freedesktop.org/~dri/snapshots/archive/
I don't know where are more recent snapshots. If the location has changed then somebody has to update the docs pointing to this site.
