Hmmm, this is definitly weird. Have you tried to use vlc on an mpeg file or 
an a vob file but without using the dvd input module of vlc ?
You would then be able to tell if libdvdcss is the problem (which I doubt, 
but worth a try).
When you are using the xvideo plugin (vlc --vout xvideo) do you see in the 
title bar of the window the text "xvideo" (just to make sure the xvideo 
plugin is actually used).
Could you give us some more info (on your system, etc..)
