Have you ever seen that artifact in anything else other than XBMC?
I've seen stuff like that before, but with discrete GPU's and it always came back as bad GDDR modules. It seemed only 2D (not DirectDraw) was affected.

Is it only on the TV that you see the issue or can you also get the artifacts when displaying on a regular monitor?
You can try and run some various stress tests on the video card and see if that generates the artifacts as well, in order to pinpoint whether it's an XBMC or GPU issue.

Looks like a gfx card issue, filling up your gfx buffers with any program will have the same results. Try newer drivers.

Try running FurMark or 3DMark and see if you GPU presents any errors. If it does, then it points to hardware issues.
