The VideoLAN Forums

I am accessing the media on my OneDrive account via the cloud services menu item (VLC Menu > Cloud Services > OneDrive).

I have encountered 2 issues:
1--tapping "Back" to go up one or more levels often causes the "busy" wheel to spin, but nothing happens. I often have to close the app from the app switcher, and restart the app.
2--when using cloud services, there is no way to access the VLC menu (normally accessed by tapping on the orange/white cone in the upper-right corner).

I am running VLC for iOS version 2.5.1 on iPhone 6 Plus 128GB (Model: MGAQ2LL/A), with iOS 8.3 (12F70). Issues happen regardless of network type (LTE/4G/WiFi).

Thanks!!!

Using VLC for iOs 2.7.8 (278.1)

I am having the same problem with OneDrive integration. The problem is definitely associated with viewing folders that have subfolders that have a lot of files in them. For example, I have a folder "A" with a subfolder "B". Subfolder "B" has a subfolder in it called "C". Subfolder C has "a lot" of files in it. The definition of "a lot" is vague because i don't know how many files in folder C triggers this bug. The files in C don't need to be music or video, it could be images too.

So in the onedrive explorer in VLC, if you navigate to folder A off the root then hit back, no problem. If you navigate back to A then down into B, WITHOUT going into subfolder C that has a bajillion files in it, then hit "Back" once to attempt to go back to A, VLC hangs. It's as if it somehow decided it needs to check every file in subfolder C and it just plain hangs with the "busy" indicator going forever.

It also hangs if subfolder C doesn't have a lot of files in it, but instead has lots of subfolders with files and subfolders in them as well. For example my "music" folder has just a few files in it but 680 subfolders (representing artists, with their own subfolders for albums). Navigating into my music folder works, I can see my large list of subfolders (artists) under there, but once you are there, hitting Back at ANY folder anywhere in the heirarchy causes a hang. I can never navigate back one level up no matter where I am in the heirarchy. If I'm in the Music folder and try to go up - it hangs. If I'm further down in an artist folder and try to go back to the big Music folder - it hangs. If I go further down to an album folder and try to go up to the artist folder - it hangs. Even if the artist has a single subfolder (1 album) and I go into that album, I can't even get back up to the artist folder. Something gets permanently corrupted the moment I get to the big Music folder and the Back button will no longer work anywhere, period.

I really love VLC but this bug makes it useless as a cloud music player, at least for significantly big folder heirarchies, since you can drill all the way down to an album folder to listen to the audio, but you can't ever go back even a single level up.
