    Should be that difficult. Just create a script with:
    Code:
    #!/bin/sh
    compiz-switch;vlc $@;compiz-switch
    It will run the switch command, then run vlc with the selected file. After you close VLC Player the switch command runs again. Then set this script as the default action to open when you doubleclick a video file.
