Delete the vlc-version directory. You can also remove the configuration file /boot/home/config/settings/vlcrc.

Remove the packages that you installed:

# apt-get remove --purge vlc libdvdcss2

If you compiled VLC from sources

Go to the directory containing VLC sources and execute

# make uninstall
