Leave a Review VLC Streamer
Best App I own!
Have been trying to get an app like this for ages! AirPlay failed to work for me after much effort and came across this. Had an issue at first with buffering, but i sent an email and got an immediate reply to try switching off bluetooth (this info is actually provided with the app, I found out) and the problem was solved! Really easy to use streaming from my computer!
Great app and great support!Show lessChrishn
Awesome App
Wow! This an excellent app. Now I watch all my vids via this app on my iPad2 directly streaming from my laptops and desktop computers including vids on flash drives connected to my comp. Wish there was an option to not display the recent vids but it's not a big deal, just an esthetic consideration.KingKS
Amazing
Does exactly what it says it will do. I love this app, and no wonder it VLC. And that should be enough righ there! If you have movies on your pc and dont want to go to all the trouble to convert them and put them on your iPad where they take up space, then this is a must get. You will not be disappointed!Show lessNullcrash
mkv files not working
this is a really wonderful app. it works flawlessy with avi files. However with mkv files it plays the video but there is no sound. Not on the iphone nor on the tv. i have tried with different videos but with the same result. if you could fix this, it would really be a wonderful app. Thank you.dkt8792
Not recommended
When using this app from an iPad 2, my MacBook pro overheated and the fan was running so intense in my MacBook that it bothered me, so i stop watching the movie.
Plus, there is a grey bar on top of the video and annoying advertising in the bottom. The quality is very poor greyer and blurry, that that the advertisement looks more eye soar because it's brighter than the actual movie.
I have never gave this poor review for an app than this one. I would recommend other apps that does the same thing but will not harm computer to overheat.
Overall, this app is one of the worst. Why? Because of advertisement, grey bar, laptop overheating, slow buffer even with side-by-side laptop and iPad not recommended if your going to use this on another room because it may cause your laptop to overheat and cause a fire, and buffer system it only downloads a few minutes, so if something happens with the connection between your laptop and iPad, it will pause.
1 star out of 5, worst experience watching a movie in avi format.Show lesserwinignacio
Very good but room for improvement
I'm sure the updates in future will make this app even better than it currently is.nzkop
Killed by 1.62
Looks like the April 25th update from 1.61 to 1.62 killed the playback feature of the app - making it useless like the author states in the description. I give it 5 stars anyway because it's FREE and I'm sure it'll work this week sometime. Keep up the good work.Moongrocer
When it works, it's great
The helper app crashes and fails to transcode most video files. And by most, I mean it only worked on 4 of about 20 that I tried.
Also it puts a grey bar across the top of the screen during playback.
Sometimes the iPad app fails to see computers until you force a restart of the app. Sometimes when clicking a movie to play, the App will close to desktop and will crash every time you try to run it until you kill it in memory.
When choosing a file to watch, sometimes it doesn't wait for you to select the quality. Other times, select the quality and clicking watch doesn't do anything until you kill the app in memory.
But when it works, it's great. Definitely try before you buy. All this testing was done on ipad2 with a win7 pc running the helper app.Show lessibsteveog
Simply awesome!
The app absolutely worth 5star. Recommended.Ray xh wang
Impressed
Great app - I hate importing videos into iTunes.
I find I need to restart the app every time I use it lest videos refuse to play however.
Being a solid PC user for the past 17 yrs, this was naturally one of the first apps that I went searching for. It'll always beat Windoze media player hands down.Show lessmoldricd
