Hello, Angelo,

'vlc' should give you the graphical interface and not, like in your 
case, the cli.

So either you have
- a misconfiguration
- a broken installation.

So at first you can try to reset your configuration by
vlc --reset-config

If that does not help, go the brutal way:
rm -rf ~/.config/vlc/

If your installation is broken, uninstall vlc and install it again (I 
guess you received vlc from rpmfusion?)

HTH
