Not sure if people still use it now.. (I think the answer is no) I just know that there's plenty of movies that did use it before, and when it comes to movies..newer isn't better!
That being said, the issue has been reported several times both here, and to intel and like fritsch said, it crashes everywhere and with everything. There's always the bad apple. Unfortunately, the solution I've had to live with is to turn off hardware decoding, which makes me quite glad that multi-core rendering works so well in its place. I'd be pretty unhappy without that workaround
Edit: Recently Battlestar Season 1 bluray was encoded in VC1. It still exists. !
