I assume you did this on Linux?

The motivation for the vcl backend was primarily for Windows, where
there is no equivalent of gstreamer (some OS-level building block that
provides you with codecs). When I tried it last year, actually it was
the only avmedia backend that worked for me on Windows, but perhaps
something regressed since then.

(CC'ing Minh, who wrote that backend in 2013.)
