Yesterday the "videos" app stopped working on my iPad 1 (on 4.3.1). When I launch the app I get a black screen, and sometimes (but not always) the "working" animation (sequential radial lines) for a few seconds, then nothing but more black screen. I tried restarting the iPad and that didn't help, so I did a restore and that didn't help either. Next step, I guess, is to delete all videos then re-sync, but if that would work I would think that the restore would already have worked. Anyone else having any problems like this?

Yes, I had the same problem. I got an iPad 2 :). Seems to work fine now. I erased the iPad 1, and gave it to my wife. She hasn't complained of the issue as of yet.
