This is the intended behavior.  If bicubic is enabled or auto, I don't enable
the attributes since it would be confusing to have the effects suddenly
disappear when the video gets scaled.  The only way to use them is to disable
bicubic (XV_BICUBIC = 0).

XV_VSYNC is unrelated to these changes.  It will decrease performance in
benchmark type scenarios because it stalls the engine while it waits for the
current vline to pass beyond the video.  It's used to avoid tearing.  Turn it
off for benchmarking.
