We're both south-islands hd7000-series cards, but not the exact same. Idunno, just my observations.
rv730 is not southern islands. It's r7xx (HD4000 series). Completely different hardware.

I have very similar looping (but without skipping) which frequently end up gpu hangup on rv730 agp, and i think vdpau was never working with that card/mb, or at least it is not this regression, should i open a new bug?
For AGP cards and r7xx cards, make sure your kernel has these patches for proper UVD support: http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=4f... http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=4c... http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=84...
