Well, you did update ffmpeg (one of the decoder library options), so 
it's possible there is an issue with packaging with that library.

More interesting however: it shows libmpeg2_0 (the other decoder library 
option that isn't XvMC) as "Installed" , not "Updated" (as in not 
previously existing).  One possibility may be that you were set for 
libmpeg2 in the "Preferred Decoder" config, but since it wasn't 
installed it switched to ffmpeg (or another decoder library).  When you 
ran the update, libmpeg2 was a required dependency of something (or it 
wouldn't have installed) so it got installed, allowing it to be used 
instead, and it's not performing as well.

If that's the case, then we are back to my suggestion of twiddling 
around with the stuff on that first "Playback" screen.  (Particularly 
"Preferred Decoder.")
