Description

The best way to control VLC
Incredibly easy to set up. Powerful and Beautiful!

VLC Remote® lets you remotely control your VLC Media Player on your Mac or PC. For iPhone iPad!
Awarded Gizmodo's “Essential iPhone App” three years running. Awarded T3's “Best iPhone Apps”.


The free version is identical to the paid version except for two things:

1) The free version shows adverts.
2) The free version won't let you browse to open files from the remote. You'll have to get up of your sofa and do that manually until you upgrade!


“The new VLC Remote app is simply stunning! It works a treat and it feels professional and powerful. Love it.”
- Adam, London

“The update for the iPhone version is *amazing* - it looks so polished - not that I had any complaints before.”
- Rich

Convenient, easy to use

Super convenient, I was able to watch whole movies using my phone as a remote. setup time was less than a minute

Great app. One small flaw

As the title says, app is great. Full featured and powerful.
The one function that they appear to have overlooked and failed to address (and that comes in necessary quite frequently) is the lack of an ability to respond to dialogue boxes on the local machine. They can pop up over the video, requiring physical presence at the keyboard/mouse/trackpad in order to respond, negating the point of the app.

Actually works, with a few issues

I’m impressed with how well this app works and how easy it is to get working, but I did find that I had to close the app on my iPad in order to prevent frequent pauses in playback.

Once the video is playing and the app is closed, it works perfectly.
