Could you try :
* Tools -> preferences set show settings to all
* Input/Codecs -> Video Codecs -> FFMPEG then set Threads from 0 to 1 (and/or use hardware acceleration if available).
* Save
* Restart vlc
* Retest

It prevents multithread decoding with ffmpeg. This way vlc acts the way it used to in the previous versions.
