There is no API to do that and no plans to add one either. This would 
interfere with some of the existing LibVLC APIs, as well as planned future 
ones.

Besides, not all video outputs support all video formats and windowing systems 
in all circumstances, so forcing a video output is a great way to break 
autodetection and fail to render.
