In the past days, i used VLC to watch video tutorials. but occasionally, I met the video can't play correctly and screen stuck problems. I thought it maybe need update system and softwares. So I used command "sudo upgrade" tried to fix problem, but unfortunately. my computer also held those problems. even the system and VLC is the last version.
So. at past night. I used Ubuntu Software to remove VLC. and from some forums to got "sudo apt-get autoremove vlc" "sudo apt-get auto clean"..etc..(cause I want to uninstall completely for reinstall) But since uninstall VLC, I will incapable to enable it again.
My system is Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, and run of VLC 2.2.5. could you can help me to solve those troubles? Thanks :)

Maybe you can try removing it completely and installing it directly from the binaries.
sudo apt-get remove vlc
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
Then download the binaries from http://get.videolan.org/vlc/2.2.8/vlc-2.2.8.tar.xz
Save the file wherever you want to install it. Then, uncompress it:
tar âÂÂxzf vlc-2.2.8.tar.xz
You can run the program directly if you want, without installing it by:
./vlc
Or, install it with:
./configure
make install
And finally run it:
./vlc
The file INSTALL inside the tar.xz file contains more information abut the installation.
Good luck!
Sir, Thank for your advice, I attempt in another computer of those commands. and successfully to reinstall VLC. although I don't know whether the same operation on my personal PC will be how? I will still trying.

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created

The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
