Some Files Constantly Crash
I’ve been using VLC for 20+ years on desktop (Windows, Mac, and to a much lesser degree Linux). The desktop app has reliably played 99.99% of what I have thrown at it, including some files that are partially corrupted. Great App.
I was expecting the same great reliability from the VLC iOS App, but have found it to be far less reliable. It actually cannot even play some mp3 files without crashing (ex: Pretty Lights - Constellation Discs 1-3 - free to download from their website if anyone wants to try). As a result, it has forced me to try other, less enjoyable apps (that playback the albums just fine).
I’ll still use VLC and hope this issue gets fixed, if it does, I’ll update my review. In the meantime, I’ll have another single use app.
Update for Developer: MP3 version, is what I tried initially. Also crashed with the AIFF version, did not try WAV.

Fallen Behind
There’s so many video players that can play almost all types of media and VLC is lacking so many features that those apps have. Picture in Picture should be standard and I have several video players that support it with just as many video types as VLC does.

Not nearly useful as on desktop
Used VLC for a long time on linux. Plays videos fine as one selected item but the playlist feature is very bad. Have to select one at a time to create new playlist and no option to select existing playlist. So bug there beyond it being a hassle. Best if the devs made it follow the directory structure so i can manage on the file system myself.

FLAC streams play silent.
Please correct the issue where FLAC streams play silent, while M3U8 HLS plays fine.
