  • Genius

    This guy is a genius! Perfectly working app, easy, quick and brilliant. And for what - 2 bucks?!?! Even just playing your avi's on iPod is awesome. Network is sublime. And you just know he'll keep tweaking ie add ffwd, rew, audio delay, etc.

  • Easy movie streaming

    A straightforward process setting this up. Was watching movies from my hard drive within minutes. Quality is good, although if you want better quality you wait longer for it to buffer. It converts on the fly so if you want to copy to your iPad for off line viewing it can take a while. Overall, a very useful app for a cheap price.

  • Clearly AWESOME

    I've had this App for less than 10 minutes and haven't had a chance to explore all the features, but already I can see that it will be the best $2.59 (NZ) that I have ever spent! I look forward to exploring the "copy to iPhone" feature for away-from-network playing and getting, and streaming to, an Apple TV. This is so much easier than the convoluted way I used to use to view movies on my iPhone. Hope the "resume where left off" or "bookmark position" feature referred to in another review comes about.

  • Great little app simplifies getting movies to my iPad

    This is a great client front end for the popular and free VLC Meia Player. It requires a small program to run at the PC end then makes watching and transferring (in the paid version) of video files as easy as pie. The lies are transcoded in real time to a size and bandwidth suitable for the iPhone or iPad. These files can Aldo be copied over so making the video viewable when offline. For long plane trips this is a lifesaver!

    A minor quibble is that the software picks up the default video and subtitles from the original file - on a lot of downloaded files that may mean you don't get your preferred language. It would be nice to support a preferred language but apparently this may be a limitation of the VLC server and not the app.

    Support from the author has been instantaneous and there are frequent updates. I would like to see the ability to organize the media files a it more (at least into Movies and TV folders) to avoid having to scroll down a long list. But still a very good and friendly app for media ju mikes like me!

  • ! ! A W E S O M E ! !

    worth the download! extremely handy when one needs to b using the Mac Book Pro & one wants to watch downloaded eps of SOA, Jersey Shore, Keeping up with the Kardashians etc .... highly recommend as a MUST HAVE APP!
  • I <3 YOU!

    OMG...how did I live without this app!?!?!!! Worth every cent... so fast and easy to set up and USE.... a MUST have on your iPad/iPod/iPhone!!! Don't even hesitate... if you have avi's on your computer, this streams and saves so much quicker and better than anything else (IMHO)....

    Only one small pickle... I agree with Timothy L's review... this WOULD be perfect if it remembered where you were in the movie.. but I can deal!

  • VLC Does It All

    I really wish more programs, software, and applications were as simple to use and efficient as the VLC Media Player. These guys get it right. Just like the VLC for the computer, the application's ability to handle any type of video file makes it one of my most frequently used applications. The application is much more effective and easier to navigate than the AirVideo I was using before, which has since been stripped of its place on my iPad. VLC allows you to choose between several settings between low and high for both bandwidth and resolution, meaning that the Streamer gets to decide whether picture quality outweighs the extended wait for your video to begin. I love that feature because any file can be streamed very quickly and browse through with ease once the Streamer has had a chance to get through the whole thing. I generally put the settings to high, click watch, and let them load for a while so I can come back and watch a streaming video with perfect picture quality. Really a great product!!!

  • Sweet app

    This app is real good and being able to save the videos onto your iPod is very handy, a lot quicker than reformatting them and then using iTunes :)
  • Well worth it

    A very nice application to have. Got my movies in my hard drive and streaming the movies on the lounge tv. The most useful app that I have so far...
  • not worth getting

    so i thoughted ill try this, got i up and working on my iPad, but i can see any movies, doesnt have a option anywhere to tell what dir my movies/tvshows are. this is not a product i would recommend. going to stick with Air Video. Maybe they need to work on this, and learn from what other apps are doing! DO NOT BUY!!!
