Sorry if this is in the wrong area but I'm a pascal programmer (FreePascal/Lazarus) and would like to control VLC via command line and stream video to a custom window by passing its window handle to vlc. Is this possible? Or is there a better way to do this?

I don't think this is possible with VLC as a standalone apllication. But if you are willing to go the development route you can do this using libvlc. See here:

General information libvlc development is available here:
