If you try to open vlc player as root, you will face the error like this:
"VLC is not supposed to be run as root. Sorry.
If you need to use real-time priorities and/or privileged TCP ports
cannot be run by non-trusted users first)"
To allow ROOT user to run VLC:-
Go to the terminal and type this command:
sed -i 's/geteuid/getppid/g' /usr/bin/vlc
That's mean you are opening /usr/bin/vlc and replace geteuid to getppid.
Now you are allow to run VLC player as the root user.
Thanks. Have a sweet life :)
