No, he's asking about VNC, not vlc.
I've used VNC to remote admin my main box at times, basically as a 
wireless keyboard.

The video does come through, but _very_ low framerate on wifi. It's 
worth a try though on gigabit, might work. May also have to look into 
settings regarding refresh rate, try to manually get that as high / 
higher than the frame rate of your content.
