For VLC you can use its built in web interface.

On the mac go to the VLC menu and mouse over "Add Interface". Choose "Web interface" then on your local network enter the following URL into your tablet's web browser:

http://<Your Computer's IP>:8080/?

if needed you can find your desktop's IP address by going into System Preferences --> Network.

There's also instructions here for creating a web-remote interface for iTunes.

Hope this helps
