Devices and Mac OS X version
VLC media player requires Mac OS X 10.7.5 or later. It runs on any Mac with a 64-bit Intel processor or an Apple Silicon chip. Previous devices are supported by older releases.
Note that the first generation of Intel-based Macs equipped with Core Solo or Core Duo processors is no longer supported. Please use version 2.0.10 linked below.
If you need help in finding the correct package matching your Mac's processor architecture, please see this official support document by Apple.
Web browser plugin for Mac OS X
Support for NPAPI plugins was removed from all modern web browsers, so VLC's plugin is no longer maintained. The last version is 3.0.4 and can be found here. It will not receive any further updates.

Graphical
Graphical approaches are the easiest but also the most variable because you have to look in different places depending on your interface. What this approach will do is globally change the hue, brightness, contrast, saturation or gamma for every video you play in VLC, perhaps for color-correction purposes. If you want to play a single video with different image settings, you should look at the command-line approach.
Older versions of VLC required different steps (VLC versions <= 0.9.0 used wxWidgets Interface).Modern VLC installations for Windows and Linux use Qt, Mac installations use the OS X interface.
Qt Interface
- In the menu bar, select 'Tools' and then 'Effects and Filters'.
- Select the 'Video Effects' tab and then 'Essential' subtab.
- Tick the 'Image adjust' checkbox and move the slider for the setting you want to change.
- Hue, Brightness, Contrast, Saturation, and Gamma may be adjusted.
Changes take effect immediately for every video.
OS X Interface
- Go to the 'Extended controls' panel.
- Select the 'Video' section and then 'Adjust Image' subtab.
- Tick the 'Enable' checkbox and move the slider for the setting you want to change.
- Hue, Contrast, Brightness, Saturation, Gamma, Opaqueness may be adjusted.
Command-line
A command-line approach will run VLC with adjusted hue, brightness, contrast, saturation or gamma for one session (the adjustments will not be preserved later). To learn how to get a command-line, see command-line interface.
The module you will be working with is adjust. As given by vlc --module adjust
:
The defaults are 1.0 for contrast and brightness, 0 for hue, 1.5 for saturation, 1 for gamma.
You can make a video (or still image) 10% brighter with:

and make a video (or still image) black-and-white with:
And this works too:
Permanent changes
You cannot save your preference for adjusted image settings with VLC (VLC doesn't seem to have any field that 'remembers' your preferences).
You can, potentially, stream the video through a filter using the above method to an output file, and overwrite the original.
In other words, to make foo.ogv 10% brighter you adjust foo.ogv:
And then save the result into foo.ogv.tmp (sorry, I don't have a command line for this), saving over foo.ogv.
Now when you play foo.ogv the video will be brighter.
