To be clear I don't have a Skylake machine but here's how I configure things. Sometimes video output corrupts in mpv and then it helps to compton as well, if you didn't see tearing at first and hadn't compton running. compton --backend xr_glx_hybrid --vsync opengl-swc I've been told the following xorg setting should not be required and enabled automatically, but it doesn't hurt here. To also be clear this doesn't actually force vsync but compton does that: Option "TearFree" "true" Option "SwapbuffersWait" "true" I didn't try glamor acceleration and the default of the intel driver is SNA for some time now, as everybody uses the 3.0 pre-release versions. $ cat ~/.config/mpv/config hwdec=vaapi vo=opengl
