Mid 2010 15" core i7 graphics control

Hi everyone! (Just like Dr. Nick)

I'm having problems with my new mbp. Watching videos on it is nice, but when I go into full screen mode (have not tried from dvd, but when streaming) the video gets all jittery. Its like it is "lagging". Pausing to buffer does not help.

My question is, is there a way to control which graphics card I'm using? Id like to see if using the faster/better card will help. Im wondering if it is something with the OS thinking that watching video in Safari will only allow using the discrete card. When viewing in normal (small screen) size within the browser, it is nice and fluid, but once I go to full screen is when I have the issues.

Any advice (regarding if there is an update, 3rd party app to control, or anything) is much appreciated!!!
