The VideoLAN Forums

I really like the VLC app for iOS. I'm considering acquiring an Android device and would like to know if Android's VLC app has the same features. Can anyone tell me whether the Android version has the video filters, specifically the gamma feature. It is great for lightening up dark videos. And does it have on screen volume controls? With movies' volume so low when talking then blaring when the music kicks in, you must have a volume bar! Thank you.

1) Not yet.

2) You can use the device's volume buttons for that.

I was asking about a soft volume bar. It's very awkward having to press down on the hard volume buttons when you have the device on a stand. It's much easier and quicker to swipe or tap a volume bar in the app. Every video app I've used has soft volume controls.

I did just get to try the Android app and was about to report back here. You're right, it doesn't have the video filters. It does however have volume control in the app. Not a bar per se, but using gestures. You can swipe up on the screen on the RIGHT side to increase the volume and swipe down to decrease. The same procedure on the left side controls the brightness. Hopefully they will add the video filters eventually as in their iOS app.

Thank you for your reply.

You can swipe to have volume, yes.
