unable to get package file unavailable

I am new to freebsd FreeBSD, and Googled about my problem and find no solutions. I am using freebsd FreeBSD 9.1 and changed the packagesite to 9-stable/Latest/
When I typed [cmd=]pkg_add -r vlc[/cmd] it said,
Code:
ERROR: unable to get [url]ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-9-stable/Latest/vlc.tbz:[/url] File unavailable
pkg_add:unable to fetch [url]ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-9-stable/Latest/vlc.tbz[/url] by url
but some applications were installed (xfce4,fluxbox).

After that as the root user:
  1. [cmd=]cd /usr/ports/multimedia/vlc[/cmd]
  2. [cmd=]make install clean[/cmd]
After installing lot of dependencies it completed; now when I type vlc at prompt it says
Code:
Command not found

I took VLC as an example and a lot of the packages are not installing with the pkg_add command and please help me how to install it from pkg_add or from sources.
