Can VLC play music from the Music app?

Hi!

I have a few songs (under "Downloaded Music", I copied them from PC to the iPhona via iTunes) on my iPhon in the Music app.
Is it possible to play them with the VLC app?
Without copying them again from the PC?

wrong hostname printed in wifi sharing option

When I enable the wifi upload function in VLC, it shows a wrong hostname in the connection URL. To be exact, the host part is correct, while the domain is wrong.

It shows myphone.local instead of correct myphone.lan.

version is 3.1.4 , iOS version 12.1.1

How to prevent Windows sleeping during playback?

I have Windows 10 on a hybrid tablet (Asus T101HA) and when I start VLC playing some music (M4A files), windows makes the PC go to sleep mode after a few minutes. Is there an option in VLC or Windows to prevent that? Besides turning the sleep feature off altogether, which is not a good idea for a ta...

Update from 2.2.8 to 3.0.2 has no "just update" option

I have VLC 2.2.8 on Windows 8.1 (64 bit). I try to install vlc-3.0.2-win64.exe and in the wizard it shows no "Just update and keep settings" option, but only the complete installation thing. Is it because my old version is 32 bit and this is 64? Is there a way to migrate settings from one ...

Re: VLC 3.0 release notes?

Related: in the webpage menus on the top, there is no mention of http://www.videolan.org/news.html
It is only listed at the bottom of the page.
That way it is not easy to find.

The major version number is bumped, but not even a line of comment on the web site.
Or is it well hidden?

VLC fo TV?

Are there plans for official or unofficial version of VLC for smart TVs (not Android)?

Would be great for playing IPTV used by some providers.

Re: VLC 2.2.0 Unable to play HD videos properly ?

"me too" About 10% lost frames. I noticed that v2.1.5 uses about 38% CPU while 2.2.0 uses "only" 30%. (these are total system CPU usage as indicated by Task Manager. Subtract a few % to get VLC value.) It is a 4 core CPU (i5-2320), so 2.2.0 is using only 1 core it seems. The movi...

Re: Mail list usage?

Then maybe a final message on it would be nice, explaining the fact.

And also refusing all newly sent messages to that address.
