Need a new link or code -- though I think this needs an extra Apple device like iPhone or something...

Posting an UP for @Dogo.

Hi Dogo.
I sent you a reply in your private messages.
I will need further details on how to get this code, because I have no Apple device other than Apple TV itself...
Thanks.

Right, so I've installed TestFlight and it seems that I need a code/invitation to test.
When you have the time, please send me the code.
Thanks again!!!

Hi Dogo,

No worries. That is some great news for sure!

Yes, I'm interested in testing this right now.

Do I have to do something like having an account or do I just go to Test Flight...

Many thanks.

@Dogo,

Have you looked into this?
If you need any help, count on me.

Thanks.

I am in a very eager state in antecipation for VLC 4.0. I've read articles back from early 2019 (thus, more than 4 years ago), promising this would be released. We, that are from the music camp, are hoping to have the implementation of gapless playback. I myself have been contributing in trying to d...

Dogo, some findings about this bug. I recently bought a vinyl for "Martin L. Gore - Counterfeit e.p." and I had access to these WAV files. https://www.discogs.com/release/21488413-Martin-L-Gore-Counterfeit-EP I compressed to FLAC 1.4.3 and embedded a 50kB album art. To my surprise, VLC rea...

Thanks Dogo. If this is fixed as I think it was intended to be the way I described, it will be one step closer for VLC to become the definitive tvOS music player replacement and no need for iTunes anymore -- after the gapless playback getting implemented right after. It will be heaven.

Thanks.

Hi folks!

Another one for VLC!

It would be very interesting to fix this, as I believe the intentional behaviour was to display album art.
Latest VLC for tvOS. tvOS is 16.6 (20M73).

Cheers.

still not available in 2023.
someone do it now, or just shutdown the all app.

I laughed reading this. I am also waiting for gapless playback, since 2019... on AppleTV 4K.
Well, hope it gets sorted out soon.
Cheers.

Hi. Please take a look here:

https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=160129

It's been a while now since I don't come here, but as far as it goes, it is going very slow. I hope that release turns up soon.

That "No and no." kind of thing is as stupid as it can get. Not a music lover or a person who understands this experience. Just a popcorn grabber with hands full of grease. I think one of the heavenly developers said before that gapless would be possible when v.4 comes around. Please have ...

Hello folks,

Title says it all.

Thanks.

Hi guys, just to let you know that I managed to make DNLA work here. I was able to see album artwork when entering a FLAC folder with embedded art in FLAC files. Although it loads SLOW, very slow and some files don't load the artwork at all. I tested this with ridiculously small art files 200 px / 1...

@kraftyman: sorry, I assumed you were talking about the local media library on iPhone or iPad. On Apple TV, we do not have artwork for media accessed from remote servers such as SMB yet. If accessed through UPnP and provided by the server, it will show. I have no idea on how this takes place. Is th...

@kraftyman: can you try to reset your media library? This should make the artwork appear. Hi. Excuse my ignorance. By resetting media library, what is the procedure? In VLC/ATV, I removed the share and re-added it. Before this, from the computer, I turned off the share and back on. In the app confi...

Hi guys. I'm sorry... I tested the update. Album artwork support for FLAC or MP3 files was not included in v3. I see no improvements for the music player enthusiasts and those waiting for something to be on par with iTunes/Apple Music. Wasn't this this previously written as to be expected for this r...

Good news. Can't wait.

Currently, it isn't really maintained.

Hi,

According to a post in this forum, artwork is planned for next release still being the 3.x series.

Let's just wait and see.

Cheers.

(Continuing from part 2...) https://jssocial.pw/ppkey/fget/pic8/upload/f6uVAUIgyJ.jpeg Image 16 - Here are the files that I selected in this playlist. As stated, it is only showing the files in the playist. In this case, I used the M3U8 that halted in VLC. https://jssocial.pw/ppkey/fget/pic8/upload/...

(continuing...) https://jssocial.pw/ppkey/fget/pic8/upload/cfOuYlGp6e.jpeg Image 9 - Now, loading the other playlist file, M3U, it loads. Notice that it loads only what the playlist has got. Artist and Title track. It doesn't fetch any tag from the file as it would do without playlists. But the majo...

Hi. I'm proposing a case study for the sake of helping the developers on how us users perceive some subtleties with VLC, and what I think it could help improve the experience and bug hunting. I'm also bringing Apple Music default app from ATV4K (Computer Share) and an app called FE (File Explorer Pr...

Firstly, thanks for your reply, really. Take for example, a FLAC file. Start playing the FLAC and VLC will display: 01 Name of the song.flac Then, you go back and stop it and put it to playback again, only then it will read the FLAC tag: Artist Name Song Title Album Title Whereas the Apple Music app...
