Read the VLC instructions.

v1.0.0 is LEOPARD ONLY.

This means that ALL G3 Macs can only use v.0.9.9a, and only if they  
have 10.4.11.

You can get the PPC version of 0.9.9a here:

http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-macosx.html


Also - it is possible to install Leopard on Beige, but you'd need a G4  
CPU, a Radeon or nVidia PCI card, and some persistence. See  
instructions here:
