I have a rather large video collection on my Mac, but I like to be able to sit in another room and be near the family when I’m relaxing. With VLC Streamer, I can sit anywhere in my house and stream videos from my Mac to my new iPad Mini over WiFI. If I want, I can also download vids for watching when not on my home WiFi LAN.
I haven’t explored it all the way, so am not quite sure how to change the subtitles or voice tracks, and there doesn’t seem to be a specific playlist feature, but I can browse my library from the iPad with no issue.
The helper app on the desktop works under El Capitan beta, and the iOS apps work on iOS 9 beta without a hitch. I would have been willing to pay twice as much for this app than I did. The dev is responsive to questions and very helpful, and he’s actively working on his apps. I have no doubt that this will only improve to be best-in-class in the near future.
