Why vlc can not play rtsp streams in ipad?
Why is the different between vlc in pc and ipad so big?
I can not find a place to input a url when I use vlc in my ipad?
thanks?

Because the rtsp support wasn't compiled in.

So, Applidium VLC app pulled from App store, but VLC for iOS seems to have same/similar structure and filenames + a mobile provision file.

Is this the same app or a cut down version of the Applidium VLC player?
So where are things with RTSP support for iOS?
Is this a deliberate decision to not provide support for this protocol on iOS devices?
Do iOS users have to go elsewhere for rtsp: support?

Many questions, but difficult to find explanations.

Yes, it is the same app.

So it is the same app, but not on the app store?

Installed through iTunes on an iphone, it played rtsp streams. Why would you say that rtsp was not compiled in?

Sorry, but it doesn't make sense.

The OP says he can't play RTSP streams, which is probably because he doesn't have the rtsp module.
