Express launch desired video stream?

Postby Latitude42 » 01 Nov 2018 14:20

Hello,

First post by a new member and new user of iOS VLC. I'd like to use the iPhone app to monitor a RTSP security camera remotely. It does work. Is there a way I can configure the VLC app for one-tap express launch, directly to the desired stream?

Thank you.

No, this is currently not possible within the app.

However, starting in iOS 12, you can use Apple's Shortcuts app (an optional download from the App Store) to create workflows and VLC-iOS supports the x-callback-url protocol (see https://wiki.videolan.org/Documentation ... llback-url) to start any URL directly. This should do the trick.
