This should be trivial to implement using mididings:

http://das.nasophon.de/mididings/

Mididings has a unit named "Call", which allows you to call a Python
function. With this you could just use Python's subprocess module to
call vlc with the appropriate command line option to activate the
function you want.

Or, if you prefer a more direkt approach, you could also use my Python
MIDI library, which includes an example, which shows how to execute
programs on receiving certain MIDI messages:
