Description

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.”

Fantastic App, very ergonomic! It could be usefull to have the possibility to activate the deinterlace option via the remote app, just to avoid to get up from the sofa :-)

Great functionality

This app works extremely well for what it is meant to do. The only thing I have against it is that it seems the UI has not been updated since 2007 when the first iPhone came out. Aside from that, it’s great!

Completamente basura

Sub fee

Sub fee, would have bought it maybe paid but not being black mailed into yearly subscriptions. No thanks.

Great app. One small flaw

ManifoldSky on

United States

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.
