Wordpress plugin options need to delete after deactivate & uninstall

I have developed a wordpress plugin and I need to delete the options I am creating when uninstalling. What I did is I created a file called uninstall.php and included the following code:

<?php

function WCM_Setup_Demo_on_uninstall()
{
//if uninstall not called from WordPress exit
if ( !defined( 'WP_UNINSTALL_PLUGIN' ) ) 
    exit();

$video-thumbnail1 = 'video-thumbnail1';


// For Single site
if ( !is_multisite() ) 
{
    delete_option( $video-thumbnail1 );
} 
}
?>

And included this in my main plugin file:

register_uninstall_hook('uninstall.php', 'WCM_Setup_Demo_on_uninstall');

This is how i'm registering the option in my main plugin file:

register_setting( 'baw-settings-group', 'video-thumbnail1' );

When I deactivated and deleted the plugin from the dashboard, the plugin gets deactivated but not deleted. When one press delete a blank white page comes up.

• When developing, always turn on debug mode! – Sisir Commented May 22, 2014 at 10:40

Blank/white page comes up probably due to wrong variable name. It should be $video_thumbnail1 instead of $video-thumbnail1. No need to use a variable when you can directly use the option video-thumbnail1.

Also deactivate and delete are two different functionalities. Please refer to the Codex for uninstallation hook.

Variable $video-thumbnail1 is defined incorrectly. You cant have - in the variable. Change it to $video_thumbnail1.
