How to fix this error? (gnome 3.20)

Install qt4 (as pacman - and this error message - has told you during installation, pay close attention to pacman's output during installation, it will tell you about optional dependencies)

Running vlc as root. Why?
Are you running Gnome as root also?

What makes you think so?

The '#' symbols in front of the commands you shared. Generally, that prompt is reserved for root.
