Nothing, but te abilitry to display a moving picture has everythuing to do with an X server.,
I am wondering if ytou reeally are that ignoraqnt
But not moving pictures
I have no solution for Michael's problem,
Exactly.
No. Its designed to drive an X woindow graphical sytsyem. Not output direct to HDMI hardware
Are there any?
Why not use what works - an X server. Dint need a window manager either

Bullshit. Maybe vlc needs X, I don't know. X11 is not needed for video.
Are the typos supposed to be a joke? Console video has been in Linux for ages. Is there something special about a Pi system that breaks that?

------ you know how X11 is just one possible GUI for Unix, right?
'Console video'?
What is that?
VLC clearly states that it talks to either OpenGL or X windows in a linux context.
It does not talk to an emulated VGA.
Your suggestion is about as brain dead as expectimg a windows video app to talk to a machine running DOS...
