Public bug reported:
*** I reported this as a question on Ask Ubuntu and was told this is a
bug. http://askubuntu.com/questions/245584/choppy-and-pixelated-video-
on-macbook-air-5-1-unable-to-run-view-hd-videos-at-a ***
I'm currently running 13.04 and the video is extremely choppy and
pixelated on any video program I run (vlc, mplayer, totem etc.), any
flash or html5 videos, and HD videos won't play in a reasonable way at
all (entire frames get skipped and video footage is completely
distorted; I would say it's about 10 FPS on HD videos, really extremely
bad quality). Also, I had this exact problem on 12.04 and 12.10 and was
kind of hoping 13.04 would be better, but it is not. Video in Mac OSX
works excellent, no lag or quality loss, works perfect in that OS. I
would attach some sort of log file but I don't know how and would need
directions to do so.
