Strangely I'm only getting some tearing as the youtube player controls start to disappear. Once they've gone the video plays as normal.
If you have tearing in general, try to create a file called /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf with the following options:
That directory (xorg.conf.d) doesn't exist for me

Hi,
I'm running Pd Extended 0.43.4 on Ubuntu 14.04. I've got a Dell XPS13 with Intel Ivybridge Mobile i7 graphics and I'm getting lots of screen tear/flicker when I go full screen with an external monitor attached. It doesn't matter if I'm full screen on the external or primary monitor, I still get lots of flicker.
Attached is an example patch that causes this problem (contains flashing colours)
I've noticed that if I don't go full screen (deleting border 0) then the flicker stops, but I then have the window borders and menu bar being displayed.
Is this a problem with GEM?
You can check by playing this youtube vidoe:

If you have tearing in general, try to create a file called /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf with the following options:
Section "Device" Option "AccelMethod" "sna" Option "TearFree" "true" EndSection
(I assume you have an intel gfx card)
If that doesn't help, try to install compton (https://github.com/chjj/compton) and run it like this: ./compton --backend glx --vsync opengl
(unless you run another compositor manager at the same time, that should work)
