VLC Streamer Pro App Reviews

Works so easy and stable

Il top

Its definitely worth it to upgrade and remove the ads. I use this thing almost every day. Great user interface as well. Thanks to the developer. Great invention.

Works perfect, this is easily my favorite ap on iOS. Update: I use this ap ever day. Still fantastic. Best three bucks I ever spent.

A cinch to set up and it worked "out of the box." What more could you ask? Perfect.

Ive been using this app on my iPad to view movies I have on my computer and connected storage device. Earbuds plugged in and sharp little screen is a convenient way for me to privately watch movies. Choosing "High Quality" and "Watch" works well for me. You can pause anytime without problems but going backward or searching around would only work if you choose "Download" (but that is a slow process). You do have to add a helper to your computer that is a free download. Has never given me a problem on my MacBook Pro.

Works great - I have no issues with it

VLC just works. No matter what file types I throw at it, it works. I am able to stream my home networks media over wifi and convert videos on the fly for offline viewing.

In fact, the best one out there.

Older versions had problems staying connected requiring software resets on the PC, but it seems a lot more stable now (knock on wood). Still one of my most favorite methods of watching shows/movies from my PC.

I was looking for an App to display a good picture in th TV. And this is one of the Best out there! It works for me!

Once setup, this thing works like a charm. Well worth the $3 to get rid of ads and unlock AirPlay.

Doesnt work. Crashes whenever I go to settings then add computer manually

The good: player control is outstanding! Its as good as Ive ever seen on any player, on any platform. App developer absolutely nailed the gesture-based control. Well done! The bad: as far as I can tell, this app has to create a transcoded version on my PC in order to stream. This doubles the amount of storage required for a given video, so that a 4GB video requires 4GB transcoded version, for instance. Multiply this by the number of vids on the hard drive, and…you get the idea. Additionally, the transcoding takes too long. My Core i7 CPU, running at 100%, requires 10-15 minutes per GB. (I realize this app can start streaming almost as soon as it starts transcoding, but I dont want the excess wear on my hard drive armature as it is forced to shuttle between whats written and whats being written. And theres still the mentioned drawback of doubling the storage space needed.) I would LOVE this app if it could stream on the fly!

My residential network is solid but this app doesnt work well at all. Even encoding titles at the lowest quality leaves my phones struggling to play smoothly.

Ive been using this app for years and it just keeps on improving. Now that theyve added Touch ID, I love it even more!

VERY CONVENIENT AND EXCELLENT INSTRUCTIONS. SIMPLE FALL BACK FOR CONNECTING TO IPAD ETC. BY USING A SPECIFIC CONNECTION, AS EXPLAINED IN THE INSTRUCTIONS.

Excellent app. Use it daily to stream my library. Its like a self hosted Netflix.

This app is so great I can steam the video to my iPhone and then stream the video to my Apple TV

Works great on many formats
