One thing you could try to improve the video output is to use
the --nooverlay command line option (or something like "disable hardware
acceleration" in the video section of the preferences menu). This will slow
down VLC quite a bit and the picture quality may not be that great but at
least you should have video (And I also would be interested to know if it
solved your problem).

I tried this.  No change in the behavior.

Another problem with this win32 release is that some accelerated plugins
(SSE accelerated plugins) don't work, so if you have a PIII or IV processor
then you need to use the --nosse command line option (or use the appropriate
option from the preferences menu).

I'm only on a PII.
