You need to select "grab video frames", not "choose random images", in
the xscreensaver advanced tab. (leave the vidwhacker image directory
blank also).

That's if you're using gnome-2.12.  For gnome 2.14 you'd be using
gnome-screensaver.  So far, with gnome-screensaver, you have to edit the
vidwhacker.desktop file by hand I think.
