Hi, try to play a video with Mplayer with "mplayer -vo gl myfilm.mpeg" , 
if it works without the choppiness it means you have to change your 
settings regarding the output module of your video player for OpenGl.
If already using using OpenGl try Xv instead.

You can also experiment with the option "AllowGLXWithComposite" "true" 
in the device section of your xorg.conf file.

Just to get you started.
