you may not have to formally register the trademark, but you do have to enforce it or you loose it.

I think the fundamental question is would the project lose money if people were tricked into downloading something else thinking it were VLC's product?

I imagine that registering the trademark, and threatening to sue anyone who knowingly abuses it would go a long way. It doesn't have to cost a lot of money.
