I just Googled VLC and scripting, there is a limited amount of scripting you 
can do with VLC  but you can do somethings.

The following is a combo of applescript and shell I found on Google.

sims



property timefromnow_time : date
on run
        display dialog "Do you want the simpsons to end after a number of 
minutes?" buttons {"No", "Yes"}
        copy the result as list to {button}
        
        if button is "no" then
                do shell script "/Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/VLC 
/var/root/T.V.\\ Programs/The\\ Simpsons > /dev/null 2>&1 & echo $!"
                
        else if button is "yes" then
                display dialog "Do you want to Shutdown or Quit?" buttons 
{"Quit", "Shutdown"}
                copy the result as list to {button}
                
                if button is "Quit" then
                        set quitresponse to display dialog "Number of minutes 
until Quit?" default answer "60"
                        set timer to (text returned of the quitresponse) as 
number
                        set timefromnow_time to (current date) + (timer * 
minutes)
                        display dialog "The simpsons will quit in: " & 
timefromnow_time as string
                        do shell script 
"/Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/VLC /var/root/T.V.\\ Programs/The\\ 
Simpsons > /dev/null 2>&1 & echo $!"
                        set pid to the result
                        do shell script "sleep " & (timer * minutes) as string
                        do shell script "kill " & pid & ""
                        
                else if button is "Shutdown" then
                        set shutdownresponse to display dialog "Number of 
minutes until Shutdown?" default answer "60"
                        set timer to (text returned of the shutdownresponse) as 
number
                        set timefromnow_time to (current date) + (timer * 
minutes)
                        display dialog "This computer will shut down at: " & 
timefromnow_time as string
                        do shell script 
"/Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/VLC /var/root/T.V.\\ Programs/The\\ 
Simpsons > /dev/null 2>&1 & echo $!"
                        do shell script "shutdown -h +" & timer as string & " 
Simpson shutdown"
                        
                end if
        end if
