Shae Smittle suggests.
MPlayer/SMPlayer
- (PCMan): Mplayer is the best available lightweight multimedia player. Though written in Qt, it doesn't require any KDE libs and only needs pure Qt4 (just like VLC). Besides, this is one of the most user-friendly among availble GUI frontend for mplayers.
- +1 (Mario Behling)
Luther: Mplayer doesn't work for me some times
- Druid Of System Mplayer works very well and it doesn't depends on qt4.
- Christian Johansson: +1
FreeAtMind +1, is lighter and good option, better for me than vlc
MPlayer/gnome-mplayer
- +1 Leszek Lesner
- +1 Julien Lavergne
- +1 om26er
VLC
Luther I always thought VLC is a must have for me.. as it handles every format I throw at it, without the need to install additional codecs.
- Ed Hewitt +1, only if we can get rid of the QT4 dependencies
- David Sugar: Well, mplayer fits the mission better than most other choices..
- Asunder -- Music ripping (Shae Smittle)
Video editing software
PiTiVi has gstreamer dependencies 
Avidemux
- +1 Leszek Lesner
Very easy editing/cutting and converting videos
LiVes
Videoediting System: http://lives.sourceforge.net/ perhaps to professional/complicated ??
