In vlc hit Ctrl + P to open prefs and click the Input / Codecs button. Disable Hardware-accelerated decoding via the dropdown menu. Save, exit and restart vlc. Thank you!

My VLC on my iPad still cannot connect to my shared folders on my Win 7. I just checked. Three weeks now! What’s taking so long? I d...
