How did you install VLC? Is it the official Debian version or one from somewhere else? Is it running as spot?
You may wish to try the one I compiled:-
viewtopic.php?p=111608#p111608
It runs as root and for me and plays media files under /mnt/home (mounted partitions outside of pupsave) without any problems

Yes Sir, from Debian repos, using the out-of-the-box Synaptic.

OK, well I have never tested the Debian build in BookwormPup64 because I compiled my own which is "Puppified" and meets my needs. You may be able to set the Debian version to run as root from within Puppy, but it may refuse to run like that. I suggest you uninstall the Debian one and try installing the .pet I linked to instead. If you do that, let me know if it works.
