Ok, I tested it. VLC tries to connect to images.google.com. I don't have internet connection for my ubuntu box cuz I'm staying in a hotel this week. I don't think VLC should behave like this, it should start the video and then download whatever it wants to download.
yeah changing isnt the right solution... ws driving me nuts the whole day... noticed if u disable the media player startup speed returns bak to normal, tools>preferences>advanced>playlist> uncheck mediaplayer
now someone else may elaborate on how to make it usable with the mediaplayer
tried smplayer but hv to play files at increased speeds and vlc da one which keeps the pitch intact
