  • Since last update can't watch a movie any more

    Since last update can't watch a movie any more without losing the connection every 2minutes.
    PLEASE FIX THIS IT IS UNACCEPTABLE , this is the main functionality.
  • Works absolutely fine

    I suspect the previous person either had an old model phone or didn't set their network up properly. Haven't found a movie I haven't been able to play yet.
  • dishonest app

    This app first cons you into buying the full version then wants your e-mail information

    I believe this is a totally dishonest way to provide an app and I think apple should remove it and all it's derivatives
  • There's an App for that...

    I've been a long fan and supporter of VLC and that has been cemented with this app. No fuss, install the helper app on your computer and then the VLC Streamer on your device works like a charm. Excellent options for adjusting quality including audio - I often tend to have a lower quality vid but high quality audio if I'm busy somewhere in the house and want to have something in the background. Ridiculously easy to use - I rarely give 5 stars but this one deserves them.

  • Constant adds really distracting. Pointless software...

    The adds make the movies unwatchable. Get the paid version or don't bother getting it at all... Plus even the conversion chews your PC resources as much as any other video converter.... You may as well just convert the video to H264 Mpeg4 and watch it with home sharing in iTunes. Kind of pointless in that respect. Doing it through video in iTunes is free plus then you have it on home sharing to watch on Apple TV and don't have to pay for the VLC app twice.

  • Five minutes are up!

    I usually give a new app 5 minutes to see if it works for me. If good, I buy the priced version on the same day.
    First, this company wants my email address so's they can send me some help stuff and oh yes, you should get a helper file. Strike one.
    Next, in order to remove an auxiliary window one has to tap somewhere off the aux window. No close button. Clumsy interface, this. Strike two.
    Next I entered the name and net-address of my iMac and tried to connect VLC to the iMac. I got a Firewall Problem? message. Wow, all my other iPad apps that talk to my computer just log on. Strike three. More than 5 minutes are up.
    Removed from iPad and iTunes.

  • Any problems with this app are on your end

    This is the most simple and useful app of its kind. I wish the people who made it were in charge of other stuff...like the government or something. Everything you want and nothing you don't.
  • Great App Could Be Better

    I really like this app but it could be better. I occasionally get buffering when playing videos. But that issue could have something to do with Internet speed. I also like that you can set a password to limit browseable directories. Overall this app is a must have.
  • excellent program, sometimes no sound

    excellent program, can't believe it's free. The ads are little and unobtrusive. I would like that the program has the option to select automatically the quality of the stream based on the original file settings ( trying to make the less conversion ). The only bad thing its that sometimes sound doesn't come up. I think its codec related problem. Byessss

  • VLC (torrent user must have)

    Love this app. I have a huge collection of anime on my computer that I would love to watching the big screen. Now I can with this with. Once the show starts on my iPhone or iPad I can stream it to my flat screen via apple tv and sit comfortably in my recliner instead of in my computer chair.

    Love it love it love it. This app changes everything for me. This is a torrent user must have app
