The solution depends of which version of VLC you use and your local 
ethernet configuration (router ?).
You have to open following ports on your firewalls, routers and other 
ethernet devices :
8080
554
1234

Standard (as of today) version 084a uses a variable port do brodcast 
video from the Freebox, you may have to open ALL ports, or set your 
mac as DMZ device.

VLC-crazy, a special variant, uses only  31336 and 31337, so opening 
also these two works.

Freebox router mode better be off.
