You can to some extent
while the video (or whatever) is playing go Ctrl+j or tools -> Codec information

Using the rc interface you can ask for the statistics with the command "stats"
stats
+----[ begin of statistical info ]
+-[Incoming]
| input bytes read : 1606 kB
| input bitrate : 219 kb/s
| demux bytes read : 1352 kB
| demux bitrate : 209 kb/s
|
+-[Video Decoding]
| video decoded : 1075
| frames displayed : 1063
| frames lost : 3
|
+-[Audio Decoding]
| audio decoded : 1372
| buffers played : 1372
| buffers lost : 2
|
+-[Streaming]
| packets sent : 0
| bytes sent : 0 kB
| sending bitrate : 0 kb/s
|
+----[ end of statistical info ]

I don't know any over way (maybe soon with libvlc)
