HOW are you trying to install it ?

because it dose not look like the correct way
-- for the OLD 5 series--
RHEL5.9 / CentOS 5.8 / ScientificLinux5.8

this is the current in the old 5 serieas ? right ?
RHEL 5.9

install "yum-priorities" plugin

Code:

su -
yum search yum 
--- then from the list --
yum install  yum-priorities

then install the Rpmforge repo
download the rpm
http://packages.sw.be/rpmforge-relea...l5.rf.i386.rpm

then install the SECURITY hash
-----

Code:

rpm --import http://apt.sw.be/RPM-GPG-KEY.dag.txt

-----
then install the rpm

Code:

rpm -K rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el5.rf.*.rpm

Warning:
yum-priorities MUST be installed AND configured !!!!
rpmforge will KILL rhel5 install if it is not !!!

then run

Code:

su -
yum install vlc

see the VLC download page
http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-redhat.html

and see the Red Hat knowledge base for the full instructions on third party repos
and for installing VLC
( you must have the required paid for support contract and your rhel5 install MUST be registered to use it )
https://access.redhat.com/search/quick?

if you did not pay for the RHEL5 install and do not intend on paying for it .Do not use it !

install one of the free rebuilds
CentOS 5.8 or sl5.8
or better yet unless you MUST as in 100% MUST use the old 5 series
install the current version "CentOS 6.3 "

I have installed RHEL 6.0. and quite new to this. Please tell me the steps. How can I install yum_priorities without RHN registration?

You do not !

if you are going to use RHEL6.3 then you must buy the support license and register the install
https://www.redhat.com/apps/store/desktop/

the stranded 1 year license is $299 USD per year

there are NO " if's and's or but's about it
you MUST buy a license and register the install !

or

install one of the free rebuilds like CentOS 6.3
http://centos.org/
or ScientificLinux 6.3
https://www.scientificlinux.org/
