Erroneous video output from mvp using VAAPI hardware decoding

I own a laptop with Intel HD graphics (
Now, the picture does change with the rhythm which matches the audio, suggesting the decoding does happen, but the result is completely unusable. Does anyone happen to have experience with accelerated video on Intel hardware? Any ideas of what I could be doing wrong?
Here's what my
i915
kernel driver) and I'm trying to get hardware-accelerated video playback under Debian Jessie. I have installed i965-va-driver
and libva-intel-vaapi-driver
packages, and vainfo
gives me a list of supported codecs:
$ vainfo
libva info: VA-API version 0.36.0
libva info: va_getDriverName() returns 0
libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/dri/i965_drv_video.so
libva info: Found init function __vaDriverInit_0_36
libva info: va_openDriver() returns 0
vainfo: VA-API version: 0.36 (libva 1.4.1)
vainfo: Driver version: Intel i965 driver for Intel(R) CherryView - 1.4.1
vainfo: Supported profile and entrypoints
VAProfileMPEG2Simple : VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileMPEG2Simple : VAEntrypointEncSlice
VAProfileMPEG2Main : VAEntrypointVLD
VAProfileMPEG2Main : VAEntrypointEncSlice
...
Yet when I try to play a video with mpv --hwdec=vaapi filename
, I get a totally broken video output:

/var/log/Xorg.0.log
