VLC isn’t installed, you need to install VLC manually for Debian based distros, like this
sudo apt-get install libvlc5

I’m unsure why it doesn’t happen for Arch Linux and the distros based on it, it’s presumed Pacman installs VLC when installing Arch via the ArchInstall script, but I don’t know

The VLC is pre installed when you fully install Arch Linux with archinstall method, but it doesn't come pre installed only if you manually install the base system
