Please contact the previous translator, Solomon Gizaw 
<solohavi at yahoo.com> to co-ordinate your efforts in translation. You can 
find the .po file to translate here: 
http://git.videolan.org/?p=vlc.git;a=blob;f=po/am.po;h=6348b89a01eb21c97be96321358fe7db377d4f97;hb=4c156e1054ce76bf305ae103646ce92ed6295e7b

You can find instructions on how to translate here: 
http://www.videolan.org/developers/i18n/vlc-howto.html

Use the software "poEdit" to edit the .po file. You can find poEdit 
here: http://www.poedit.net/

Addendum from Christoph Miebach:
I could also offer you the choice of using transifex. You would have to 
create an account there and request to join the Amharic language team 
here (only if you _want_ to use transifex):
