It's always worked well for me, in both Panther and Tiger (and possibly Jaguar; I forget if I used it back then).

But keep in mind that VLC is NOT QuickTime-based, so you cannot expect it to play most QT content. It does have basic support for the mov file type, but it does not have QuickTime's array of codecs at its disposal. QuickTime and VLC have very little in common, technologically. Each one can play a lot of files that the other can't.
