Ok, reinstalled 12.04 and upgraded the Nvidia driver with xorg-edgers, vdpau is working again. But compiz is consumming a lot of cpu cycle even when idle. The high cpu usage is not observed in 12.10 so it appears to be a Compiz bug which is fixed in 12.10 but have not been backported to 12.04 yet.

@c10ud Vlc doesn't use vdpau (if you compile it yourself instead of install from the repo than it can use vdpau through vaapi, but very inefficiently) So it is not a proper test for this bug. mplayer and xbmc do use vdpau, when cpu usage is high for those two then there is a problem. -- You
