Was my favorite

App no longer works. It connects to the VLC host computer like always, let's be enjoy "now playing" for about 5 seconds then crashes every time. My playlist file is 3.5megs, but every other remote plays it perfectly. All host and network settings are perfect - it's just this app. :(

Perfect

Works great, but the app frequently has to reconnect. I also don't understand why it hangs after connecting, it should skip the connected screen altogether.

Crashes

Used to be my favorite VLC remote app but became unusable.

I have had the paid version for years and I loved it. Now it crashes all the time and when you tap ? for help a blank screen comes up that you can't get out of.

Excellent app

I've grown dependent on this; I've tried similar apps, but this one has such a natural interface that makes it very easy to navigate a video. (I love "Flick Skip," in particular.) It has become one of the most useful apps on my iPad and iPhone. The developers are extremely responsive and helpful!

Nothing works

Doesn't work

Lists all files, videos but comes up with "unexpected error this and that" or "failed to do this or that." Useless.

1.5 speed missing
     
by Concerned citizen male_07 · October 22, 2013

1) VLC drops .hosts file based access control so VLC Amigo not woking now 2) Please bring back x1.5 speed . Choosing between x1 and x2 speed is <fill some strong words there>
