Ryzen 3 2200G with Radeon Vega 8 has screen tearing while watching PVR (MythTV)

I've experiencing screen tearing of pretty much everything I watch.  System is Ubuntu-Mate, 18.04, updated to latest.  TV is Sony XBR-55x900E (4K).  Display information is: 

don@johnny:~$ sudo lshw -C display
*-display

Any help appreciated,

I think I may have solved it by switching to a different window manager.  Menu > All > Mate Tweak > Windows > Window Manager > Select Compiz (Advanced GPU accelerated desktop effects).
