Bug#742896: Random blank video with VDPAU enabled

[Manuel CISSÉ]

Hello,

I was also following this bug since I was also having this issue.

Now, I am using xbmc 13.2+dfsg1-4 and nvidia closed source drivers 
340.46 and XBMC also crashes randomly when VDPAU is enabled (no problem 
with software rendering), but only when seeking (i.e. playing a video 
works but when seeking XBMC often crashes).

Please find attached xbmc crashlog.

Manuel CISSÉ
