Leave a Review VLC Streamer
good implementation but could be better
this is a free good movie player for ipad. only a few problems, one of which is to drop a frame every 3 to 4 secs when playing. I tried with every possible bitrate and resolution but the results are same. and it is veeery annoying once you know it'll tick you every few seconds. dont pay for the non-free version unless this bug has been fixedShow lessBrian_Hawk
Amazing
I can't believe what you can do with this app. I might even be able to stream over the Internet, though that makes me nervous for potential cracking. I'm amazed you can pick movies to stream from your device and they will play before transcoding completes. It is rather rough around the edges so be prepared for that. There can be challenges with getting the conversions to work. You may have to use Handbrake to get a movie that it can then transcode (thus two conversions)Show lessPecos Bill
Ads during videos, can't skip
Ads are displayed through whole video.
Unlike all other video players that let's users skip to any parts of the video not yet buffered and start buffering from the part the user skipped to, this player only allows the user to skip to parts that have finished buffering. This means for long videos, if you want to watch from the 60 minute mark for example, you have to wait several minutes before you can skip directly to that part.Show lessKupoMog

Great app for iPhone with room for improvement.SenseiEpu
Awesome. What more could you ask for really?
Had a little bit of a setup problem with windows firewall blocking me out, however when fixed, I found this program to be very powerful! Best little utility there is! In free version is ad supported, however, still great! A feature it could use: ability to delete files from computer if desired.swatterut
Great
Awesome works great, going to pay for the full app to get rid of the adsRachel Dunn
VLC for my iPad... GREAT
This app is great. The setup is the trickiest part but extremely simple if you know how to read (takes 5 minutes). I know most people want super quick and super simple but unless you take the time to allow your iPad access to your computer this won't work. Don't complain if you're too lazy to do that. What's great is now I don't bother wasting time trying to convert my video library and add to iTunes because this app will do it on the fly and stream real-time. It also will output in 720p HD which is great if I want to connect it to my HD tv. Just remember it will only be able to handle the real-time conversion and playback according to your computer systems capability. If you don't meet the requirements you'll end up waiting for conversions to happen and it will interrupt your playback experience. The good thing is you can put it on to render and comeback later to watch if that is the case.
Now my computers are free to use and my AppleTV gets a little break more often.
Great work.Show lessMDNT LeRoy
pointless
You have to download an app onto the pc you wish to stream from which has to transcode anything it wants to send to your IPad. needless to say, this takes much longer than the video length so it constantly rebuffers. Really it is a complete waste of time. If you have the original VLC Player app which will play anything, then just copy the file to your IPad, it's much quicker and more reliable. If you don't have the VLC player app which has now been withdrawn, buy one of the commercial play anything apps....
Really this is completely pointless.Show lessJasebabe
Amazing pure and simple
I love this app! Coupled with the RDP app you can set up/turn in your pc or mac remotely and then watch a movie from the comfort of your bed! Now I need a cable to connect up to my tv and I'll be extremely happy!! Thank you for this app!Dvl2nd
Install client on your computer
For those who say it doesn't work, please make sure you have the client installed on your pc/mac/whatever and if it still doesn't work, then feel free to have a whine.
Works great for me though ;)Boneheimer
