Video Playlist Manager for iPad, iPhone and iPod is a professionally designed, stand-alone video playback system for creating and editing multiple playlists directly on your iOS device. Playlists play in a continuous loop, and can be optionally password protected. Clear controls for starting & stopping playback, skipping forward and back in a playlist, along with fullscreen support and the iPad’s famously long battery-life, combine to make this app part of an ideal solution for creating elegant, self-contained video displays at trade shows and other events. Simply prop up the iPad, hit play, and walk away. VPM is a powerful advertising tool for professionals in many situations, including:  • as a self-contained display at a trade show or conference • realtors can have a video playlist of their available homes playing on the welcome table, in their office or at an open house • artists can display a video playlist of their work at a gallery, looping indefinitely Unique branding features: You can feature your logo floating in front of the video at whatever size and location you wish. Similarly, you can choose to display your logo or any other image in between each video. Playback and management are easy and intuitive: By default, videos are played in a continuous loop, and may be paused and restarted at any time. Clips may also be rearranged on the fly, with chosen videos skipped or played.   Finally, you may also organize different groups of clips into separate playlists and save them independently. Password protection: You may assign a password to prevent the editing of an existing playlist, or even to prevent the launching of the app at all by an unauthorized person. Kiosk mode: VPM offers an optional Kiosk presentation mode that sports a simplified UI that hides most management controls. External displays: VPM doesn't just support external displays; it also offers overscan controls to match the video output of most displays and projectors. In this Lite version, looped playback is not supported, and the number of videos is limited to 10. These features may be added via in-app purchase, or you may simply purchase the full version from the app store, which supports looping and unlimited video clips. NOTE: this is not an app to organize existing videos in your iTunes library!
