Lan, Are you sending my e-mail to /dev/null? I provided a list of exactly which RPMs you would need and where you can get them, and even a hint on how to install the things if you aren't using apt or yum. It turns out freshrpms.net also has videolan-client so you can install that from a package also. I would recommend using yum or apt for that install because there are a lot of dependencies.
