I have installed a vlc in centos 6.5. I want to run it as root. But I get the following error, VLC is not supposed to be run as root. Sorry. If you need to use  real-time priorities and/or privileged TCP ports you can use  vlc-wrapper (make sure it is Set-UID root and cannot be run by  non-trusted users first).
