That is weird, can you check if this file libvlc.dll is present in the same location as the vlc.exe you selected?

Yes it is.

You're probably need the 64-bit version of VLC, like https://get.videolan.org/vlc/3.0.21/win64/vlc-3.0.21-win64.exe

Yes that was the reason of the issue. The portable 64-bit version is pretty good hidden on the official site: http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/
