Wow,
out of the loop (I skipped F9), I have vlc and gstreamer-bad/ugly installed.
Totem plays mp3's and xvids fine, but vlc is choppy as heck. Given that totem
is not exactly what I would prefer to use, how does one fix vlc?


vlc 0.9 still does not work well with pulseaudio, in some cases.

You can change vlc audio output to esd.

tools->preferences

Choose audio and then "EsounD Audio Output" or "Alsa Audio Output".

Use the one that works better for you.
