Got this app years, cannot even remember. And to this day it’s still best and most reliable app I ever paid for.

Back when iPhones were a new deal, back before Plex got easier to maintain, people mostly used one app and one app only to maintain their private video libraries: And that would be VLC aka VideoLAN . Video LAN as in Local Area Network , where we could network several home computers, and share all of the media. Where we could network several home computers, share all of the media libraries, create multitudes of playlists and then have ongoing movie playback for days and days and years even. And wouldn't such an app require a remote control for us couch potato types? Enter VLC Remote. Now we could have access to every cool feature of VLC: change aspect ratio, language, alternate streams, we could play back DVDs, Blu - ray's, MKV, FLV, AVI, WMV, MP4, MOV, and many other obscure formats that (OGG) all play back beautifully from one app . I had the privilege of beta testing this app for a couple of years and a lot of the cool features in this app I remember discussing, in fact the way that it is now is the direct result of a core group of us who used to bounce ideas back - and - forth between us and the developer . Who is a great guy and he even put out a "VLC remote classic " for me and one other person and I still have that installed in one of my devices. There was even a "headset mode", an EXPERIMENTAL FEATURE with skull and cross bones warning , which works actually pretty well except that you have to manually sync up the audio on the hand devices to what's playing on the TV, but it does give you a way of having a headset on from 20 feet away and you don't have to have a 50 foot headphone cable. Is headset mode still there? YES- I was just using it. These days most of the cool things that we were able to do with VLC we can now do with Plex media server, and so I feel badly that from my perspective this app has fallen along on the wayside to the point where my iOS 11 App Store automatically offloads the app on occasion But whenever I do finally fire up VLC on my home network, I still use this app to manipulate it rather than having to get off my rear end, drag my butt over to the computer and mess with the interface there, in fact the combination of VLC Remote and Mobile Mouse/Unified Mouse gives me the ability to fire up VLC from Mobile Mouse and then I can move to VLC remote to access the app. Lately the developer has been creating something called the ChillRemote which actually can give you a Remote for things like Netflix and Amazon and YouTube and it works pretty well. (Older Reviews) No need to go into all of the technical details I squished in to my reviews before, because just about every function available on the VLC Windows app can be accessed through here. I am not so sure about the VLC “store app” which functions a little differently, I haven’t tried to control that app remotely with this app. Which gives me something to do, I will update this review as soon as I have tested that feature out... Actually I DO need to get into all of the nice gritty details about this app, fooled you! Oh yah. If you are having trouble with this app, then the problem is you, not the app. Because this integrates into VLC so perfectly that you hardly have to do anything, except run the set up helper. Also I wonder how many of you are trying to use this on the Windows 10 “Store App”- raise your hand? WRONG. You cannot use this app with the Windows 10 store version, you have to actually download the desktop app from the VLC website, otherwise forget it. I just checked. There is no mechanism within VLC remote to access the windows store version and there’s nothing in the windows store version that would allow you to connect to it with a remote, so mainly, don’t even bother with the windows 10 store version of VLC. (Old review) This app has been perfected beyond all expectations , so there isn't much else that can be said about it . I have been using it lately to watch TCM via an on demand M3U. (to " Sifu_Char " : You CAN use VLCr on more than one iPhone , as long as all devices are connected to the same local area network . You can even use VLC Remote on two iPhones and one Android if you have it installed on there as well . The set up for VLC Remote only needs to be run once , after that you can connect as many devices to VLC as you have devices that have VLC remote installed on, and they don't all have to be iPhones. The android app detects VLC after it has been set up just like the iPhone version . Hope that helps . )

The title speaks for itself, I have been using VLC Remote for years (& VLC Desktop for even longer) and it is the perfect tool to control VLC from the comfort of your sofa mainly 'cause you don’t have to touche your computer anymore once you start VLC on it. From VLC Remote you can: - Access medias from your computer, external storage,...etc - Add medias to playlist (which you can “save”) - Launch medias & control them with both : - Basic Controls (play, pause, stop, volume, next, prev., etc) - Advanced settings (equalizer, audio/subtitles source or adjust "Retard" in ms to adjust the synchro, full screen, etc) - And many others And I didn’t have the slightest problem from a very long time. In one word, do not hesitate to add this essential app to your devices (it is specially neat on iPad even if there is no fundamental difference if any) TO DEVELOPERS: Please add this app to the Apple Watch, it would be the best even if it is just the basic controls!!! Anyway, thank you for all the VLC Apps, you are the best of the best! Keep up the good work you’re killing it 😉👍 Greetings from Switzerland 🇨🇭

....und genau was ich gesucht habe. Als Musiker (diverses Instrumentarium) spiele ich zu Hause (wo auch sonst zZ🦠) gerne zur Musik über Kopfhörer. Die Musik streame ich von meinem Synology Server über den VLC Player. Da ich den PC nicht immer in greifbarer Nähe habe, wenn ich zB hinterm Schlagzeug sitze, um die Songs anzuhalten, einen anderen zu wählen, vor/zurück skippen, laut/leise etc, brauchte es etwas fernbedienbares. VLC Remote über Iphone auf einem Stativ.... genial 🤩 Funktioniert alles echt super 👍 Danke!
