Correction: I had something else open during the test, apparently VLC
does proxy correctly the requests.

I assume those settings would keep VLC inside Tor network
Yes, unless VLC fails to proxy everything to the socks proxy
, but haven't confirmed it. VLC devs would know. If it doesn't,
it's probably a bug & VLC devs would likely fix.
I made a quick test (socks 127.0.0.1:9150 with TBB OP), it's working
but indeed VLC fails to proxy everything, we see direct http requests
to yt, probably a VLC bug.
You can turn off other contact between VLC & home. After all that,
it's unlikely there's "there are tons of tracking stuff," but that
still needs confirming, if absolute anonymity is needed when playing
vids.
"tons of tracking stuff" is an euphemism in the case of yt, the
audio/video will play if yt receives what it expects after the yt
"handshake" (get_video_info), and this looks like this:
GET
/videoplayback?ms=au&itag=22&mv=m&ratebypass=yes&source=youtube&key=yt5&id=o-AFIyvZzsT98MLcoQTXGmoPAdVWLv5JNhzKGhYDSX3jkz&sparams=id%2Cip%2Cipbits%2Citag%2Cratebypass%2Csource%2Cupn%2Cexpire&expire=1401228751&upn=v80J3yeuBUg&fexp=935503%2C945043%2C934804%2C929305%2C914048%2C919118%2C945528%2C913434%2C923341&sver=3&signature=9189C9550B66A7A106E42F0FF7DDB92095F7A748.157A1E1BBEB1396D3216155561DE1A3E6E8C4204&mt=1401203257&ip=aa.bb.cc.dd&mws=yes&ipbits=0
HTTP/1.1
The ip address will not be yours but other params have to be analyzed.
Conclusion: do not use VLC as it is or wait for FF to have implemented
the MSE API, according to google yt uses MSE for most HTML5 playbacks
