Hi,
You might try uninstalling mesa-va-drivers and replacing with this:
mesa-va-drivers-freeworld
one of my 2 machines was ok and a 2nd one looked closer to what yours
looked like.
And replacing with freeworld it now looks much better and has a lot
more accelerators.
I've done that, and now it definitely appears to have more support, but
alas, it made no difference.

I also just tried to play two regular 1080p videos at the same time using
vlc, and it also showed the same problem where the system becomes
effectively unusable.
Thanks,
Alex
