I doubt that it (VLC) has problems with MPEG1 streams. VLC features the FFmpeg decoding engine. That's the same engine MPlayer uses (MPlayer however can also use libmpeg). Also ffdshow, the core of the CCCP, is based on FFmpeg. ffdshow is basically a DirectShow wrapper around FFmpeg, with a few tweaks, nothing more.
The bulk of the decoding work in done by FFmpeg. If VLC has really a bug when it comes to MPEG1 playback then MPlayer and ffdshow should have the same problem. The same goes for WMV. FFmpeg can decode WMV1, 2 and 3 - including the WMV-HD/VC-1 format. You either use an outdated version of VLC, you have configured something wrong with your video output settings or your system has some (driver?) issues. Correction: If I remember correctly also ffdshow allows it to select libmpeg for decoding. I don't know which decoder engine is default though. You should probably try to switch the engine in ffdshow and try to reproduce what you saw with VLC. Jam it back in, in the dark.
