Starting it with cvlc enables the dummy interface.  For your terminal 
window,
  vlc -f --xvideo-display :0 -I rc
will give you a text-based control panel.  Then all you need to do is type
  add /path/to/video
to start a movie.  Typing help will show you all the available commands.

I get that too, and I'm not sure why.  I didn't dive in too deep since 
the movie played.
