VLC freezes system

[Anubhav Yadav <anubhav@icoer.in>]

Hi list, 

Recently whenever I open some videos in vlc, debian freezes, I cannot
even switch to tty1 and all I have to do is restart the system. 

I see that I have VLC media player 2.0.3 Twoflower (revision
2.0.2-93-g77aa89e) installed in debian,

I tried installing the latest VLC (2.1.0) from the backports repository
apt-get -t wheezy-backports install vlc

but is says that VLC is installed to the latest version.

Any help?
