Hello.
There is AMD E-350, ATI Radeon HD 6310, DDR3 4Gb. Installed Ubuntu 11.04 (11.10 also tried).
Video playback issues. If you enable hardware video acceleration, then when viewing 720p video artifacts appear, when viewing FullHD - green ripples instead of video or just a green screen. If hardware acceleration is disabled, then the processor is loaded to the full, but there are no ripples, you can watch 720p, and FullHD slows down.
I tried the proprietary driver from the repository, from offsite, I tried third-party fglrx.
Tell me how to still configure the video card and what drivers to use to watch video with hardware acceleration without brakes?
PS: There is no problem in windows.

vaapi (it's something like vdpau, but for AMD/ATI) is mplayer enabled?

Try turning off all Vsync with ccsm first, then in the driver settings turn on System Settings - Noise Reduction and Display Manager - Digital Monitor - Adjustments - Use Graph. scaling processor.
Also see vainfo output, try to compile vlc 2.0 with vaapi support, then run vlc --fmpeg-hw

Yes, this is an old bug, back in the year 2009-2010 the same garbage was happening on the laptop when watching videos from youtube. It didn't happen on the last distro.
