It happens for me with kernel 4.8.0-34-generic #36~16.04.1-Ubuntu .
with xorg.conf from comment #129.
The flashs start to appear once there is the message pointed in #130, i.e.:
See bug #1441631 . It is required whenever you do HW decoding with
"nouveau" driver (no matter the top level API i.e. vdpau, VA-APi, OMX
...)
(Any other solutions will necessarily uses the proprietary NVIDIA
driver)

Bugs,
Any update ? The current "nouveau-firmware" package provided by Ubuntu
is useless on 2/3 years old and newer graphic hardware. Modern graphic
hardware require to extract more blobs.
For arch it is done like this: (see git clone https://aur.archlinux.org
/nouveau-fw.git)
nouveau-fw$ cat PKGBUILD
Public bug reported:
Hi, for vdpau decoder to work with gallium/nouveau it is requires to
update this nouveau-firmware package by following the instructions here:
