Its usually the other way, video playback gets affected adversely when
compiz is turned on! Thats very strange. I guess for your
circumstances using the exclude option would be the best. However you
should remember to check from time to time whether there has been an
update for xorg-x11-server-Xorg. Its a very crucial package, you
should avoid not updating it only as long its absolutely necessary for
your box to stay usable.
