I have updated the description. 
szofiel:
- vlc 1.0 works pretty well. Try it out from the repositories. 

- You could also try out: apt://smplayer

Correct me if I'm wrong, but from the looks of it, vlc 1.0 might not be
updated in jaunty (Ubuntu 9.04) because of its dependencies. It is
already in karmic (future 9.10) though. :)

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: vlc
  
  This is same issue as in bug #282582 (was for intrepid). Patch described
  in
  https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vlc/+bug/282582/comments/6
  was dropped during last merge, but it's still required  for "Integrated
  video interface" with 0.9.8a.
  
  UPDATE: The problem will probably NOT be solved until a stable 1.0 is 
released.
  "The problem is solved upstream with *extensive* changes in the 1.0 branch, 
now past first Release Candidate. We (the VideoLAN project) will _not_ backport 
the fix to the 0.9 series."

- SOLUTION (temporary): There is a package that contains a temporary patch
- which re-enables the integrated video interface, install vlc from this
- PPA: http://launchpad.net/~medigeek/+archive/ppa
+ SOLUTION (temporary):
+ vlc 1.0 is out, you can get it from one of these PPA repositories:
+ a) https://launchpad.net/~c-korn/+archive/vlc
+ b) https://launchpad.net/~motumedia/+archive/ppa
  
- DOWNSIDE: Note that by using this patch, vlc probably might crash,
- that's normal and that's why this patch is not proposed as a fix for
- jaunty.
+ DOWNSIDES of vlc 1.0:
+ None so far
  
  ME-TOOs: If you only want to say that it happens to you as well, choose
  "Yes" here:
