VDPAU issues

Has anyone noticed that using
mplayer -vo vdpau

Has stopped working for codecs other than the hardware supported ones.

it works perfectly with 180.60 (and the video is much smoother than mplayer -vo xv)

but stopped working (in full screen) with 185.x (and the later beta ones)

(I use Option "DynamicTwinView" "False" because of some apps that use xrandr to deternine refresh rate
and also

Section "Extensions"
Option "Composite" "Disable"
EndSection
)

I am using a 64 bit mplayer build

Is it still recommended to disable composite ?
