Additional Comments
The guide below is still valid and necessary with the latest Wine release. The black border glitches are likely related to this output: fixme:d3d:swapchain_init The application requested more than one back buffer, this is not properly supported. Please configure the application to use double buffering (1 back buffer) if possible.

Ideally, if your 32bit wine is compiled with gstreamer and you have 32bit gstreamer installed along with its ffmpeg/libav plugin, the in-game video should work.
But if even in that case you get a black screen instead, try getting Windows XP's quartz.dll, run 'wine regsvr32 quartz.dll' and add override for it.

You may want to lower the 3D Sound Quality slider in the sound tab down to the medium setting. Solved this issue for me!
