I didn't try but it should works! This help comes from vlc remote for iphone!

Otherwise

Open the .hosts file in (C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\http)
Il y a plusieurs type de réseau : localhost, link-local addresses, and add "192.168.0.12" at the end.

Then configure VLC by activate HTTP in option->interface.... ( read up)

And configure vlc-remote with your IP like this : 192.168.0.12:8080

A new version is comming soon!
