I suspect a problem with your setup here. I'd like to have more information 
on your configuration, would it be possible to run the "Directx Caps 
Viewer" and send me the information concerning the DirectDraw Devices ? 
(dxcapsviewer allows you to print to a file)
The dxcapsviewer utility is included in the DirectX SDKs or alternatively 
you can download it from here: 
http://downloads.earlsoft.co.uk/files/Development/DXF/DXSDK/bin/DXUtils/DXCapsViewer.exe

Could you also make me a log with vlc? From the command line: "vlc 
--intf=logger dvd:" This will give you a vlc.log file that you can send us.

Even though I haven't seen yet the Directx Caps log, I really suspect a 
problem with your setup so you might want to reinstall your graphics card 
drivers and DirectX (latest version) and see if it changes anything.
