I was having the same exact problems. Go to your user directory/Library/Preferences/ find and delete the VLC folder and you should be golden.

nop! i have done that! for thosens of times, and that didn't correct the problem. this is just a temporary fix. soon or later, vlc crashs again... it started when i updated the SO. it could be some sort of incompatibility...

Try repairing permissions after deleting the /library/preferences folder. It seem to work for me.
