Ubuntu, use VLC not Totem

Quick tip:

gconftool-2 --type string --set /desktop/gnome/volume_manager/autoplay_vcd_command "vlc %m"
gconftool-2 --type string --set /desktop/gnome/volume_manager/autoplay_dvd_command "vlc %m"

No more crappy totem spawning when you insert a DVD or VCD, but instead the pleasure of VLC.

    I use xine myself, it seems to be the only thing that works (Without severe degradation of quality)

    VLC is heavily superior IMHO and works perfectly fine ;)
