Start vlc in a terminal, and post the output messages.

Backup your hidden vlc folder by renaming as vlcback, and try again...

use native style or costum skins?
when that is the problem (costum style) you can start vlc with
Code: [Select]
vlc -Iqt4and then swicth back to 'native' interface
or reset vlc
Code: [Select]
vlc --reset-config
or use the method from daniel
