Hi Andrea,
I am able to install it on a basic SL machine, it's in our dag repository.

yum --enablerepo=dag install vlc

And it just installs.
But it is *quite* likely that if you have all of those different repo's 
enabled, that it's not going to install because of conflicting versions 
or package names.
I'm not saying that each repo won't install it's own, or even that many 
will not work together (I haven't had a problem with dag or atrpms 
stepping on each other), but when you add *that* many different styles 
and repo's, you are bound to start having problems.
Troy
