Use the rc interface (add --extraintf rc --rc-host 0.0.0.0:2020) to the 
commandline or configure it through the Preference Dialogbox. Then write 
s small application to start all VLC's remotely over the TCP network 
socket (serverip:port) with whatever MRL you like.

The rc interface supports a lot of commands to start and stop an MRL 
(file,encoding,etc.). It even provides you with some feedback on the 
success of the command.
