VLC team details progress with Windows app | Windows Phone Central - Search the forum and you may find. And, post in the correct forum too. This is for Lumia 920 related issues/questions.

VLC is well known for its extremely slow development progress. Suuuuuuuuuper slow not just slow.
They are rewriting their App to be Windows 8 compatible, it needs extra modification to also support Windows RT which they are doing, as well.
Thats kind of a complicated process because VLC is using lots of open source standards that needs to get replaced, rewritten in order for their APP to pass the Store Certification. The nature of this is complicated by itself and they reported many challenges faced already, put that in combination of the super slow development cycles the VLC has and you have a not so bright estimated time of availability.

After they done with the Windows 8 and RT versions, they will start porting it to Windows Phone 8.

Hopefully they will surprise us with an unusual for them, fast release, but judging from their history and their current development statements, I do not personally expect something significant in terms of timing and release date.
