VLC for iOS Now Available (itunes link)

Doesn&#x27;t work for me in the USA (Chicago&#x2F;Comcast). <a href="http://cl.ly/image/1a3e2L2x0M19" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;cl.ly&#x2F;image&#x2F;1a3e2L2x0M19</a><p><pre><code> &quot;The item you&#x27;ve requested is not currently available in the U.S. store.&quot; </code></pre> EDIT: stock_toaster&#x27;s link works for me! Much thanks. <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/vlc-for-ios/id650377962?mt=8" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;itunes.apple.com&#x2F;us&#x2F;app&#x2F;vlc-for-ios&#x2F;id650377962?mt=8</a>

Just linked it with my Dropbox account. That is the best implementation of authorisation I&#x27;ve seen in any mobile app, period. Compared to the Facebook method (overlay a dialog that for all I know could just be made by the app itself), it&#x27;s fantastic.

I succesfully installed on iPad, Dropbox link worked, local wifi server worked, but VLC does not recognize mp3 audio files - am I doing smth wrong?<p>Also the description in AppStore is rather limited, I would suggest to expand it - indicate all available features and goodies.<p>I used this link<p><a href="https://itunes.apple.com/in/app/vlc-for-ios/id650377962?mt=8&amp;ign-mpt=uo%3D2" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;itunes.apple.com&#x2F;in&#x2F;app&#x2F;vlc-for-ios&#x2F;id650377962?mt=8...</a>

I already have it installed from the first time it was available.<p>Then it got pulled... why&#x2F;how is it back?

Source (git repo) is available here: <a href="http://git.videolan.org/?p=vlc-ports/ios.git;a=summary" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;git.videolan.org&#x2F;?p=vlc-ports&#x2F;ios.git;a=summary</a><p>It&#x27;s missing external dependencies which seems to be the goal of the included buildAspenProject.sh, but I can&#x27;t get it to run 100%. I&#x27;ll report back here when I can successfully build it.<p>EDIT: The git repo is missing the necessary patches to vendored code. i.e.:<p><pre><code> git am ..&#x2F;..&#x2F;patches&#x2F;*.patch</code></pre>

Seems like the subtitles option is unable to display Chinese glyphs? All Chinese characters are replaced with the .notdef glyph of a rectangle with an X in the middle. Does this happen with other non-Latin languages?

Is there a way to access from a NAS or other network share? I see options for network stream but its rather cryptic.

It just redirects me to the US store, which then insists I can&#x27;t make US &quot;purchases&quot; on my account.

I am on the US AppStore and searched for it on my iPhone and found it. But none of the links worked for me.

It&#x27;s a pity it doesn&#x27;t support external SRT files, otherwise it&#x27;d be simply perfect.

The item you&#x27;ve requested is not currently available in the Colombian store.

Is this a US only release?

Seems to work for 1080p AC3 MKVs, something GoodPlayer took away.

Anybody know what formats have hardware accelerated playback?

Apparently it&#x27;s not available I&#x27;m the UK store yet.

Has the source code been released yet?

Not available in the German store yet.

Not yet available in the US.

Thank you for providing a <i>clean</i> itunes link.

Unfortunately it&#x27;s a pretty average app by todays standards. There are a number of great video players that have been in solid development since VLC was pulled.
