Bug#662628: vlc: Serious problems with playing video files

[darkestkhan]

Package: vlc
Version: 2.0.0-6
Justification: renders package unusable
Severity: grave

  After last actualization of VLC I started experiencing serious
problems with playing video files - .flv, .mp4, .webm and possibly
others (didn't test).
In fact - video files are not playing at all, and even when they are
playing it is with serious performance problems (on Pentium D T3400 it
consumes ~90% of one core). Also there is problem with quitting from
it whenever there was an attempt to play video file (only kill -9 does
the work). Worth of note is fact that I'm not using pulseaudio (nor
willing to do so).
