Quick follow up for anyone who comes across this thread while searching
the archives for their own problem: Here's some more info and a
workaround. The bug is being tracked in freedesktop.org's bugilla:

http://freedesktop.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=474

And relates to pixmaps being cached but not cleared out when the memory is
needed for the XVideo extension. There is a workaround suggested in the
bugzilla page, adding:

Option "XaaNoOffscreenPixmaps"

to xorg.conf, giving something like this:

Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "mga"
VendorName "Videocard vendor"
BoardName "Matrox Millennium G550"
Option "XaaNoOffscreenPixmaps"
EndSection

This seems to work for me... though obviously it is just a workaround and
not a solution.
