VLC and AndroidAuto for Audi

Postby Toothsmith » 24 Jan 2019 13:07

Hi,

I have an Android mobile phone which has VLC mobile. I want to connect it to my Audi MMI entertainment system to play music from the mobile via the built-in Bluetooth in the car. I can do this without problem from the Google Play Music app but the car doesn't seem to recognise the VLC app as a source.

Is there a configuration setting in the mobile that needs to be set? Any ideas, anybody?

Use VLC 3.1.0-RC2 for this to work.

Thank you for that, Jean-Baptiste, but the latest version available via the Android Playstore on my phone is 3.0.13. Is this a developer's-only version and not yet available for general release? :?

Any further suggestions?
