Stream position:

Postby DanielHenriksen » 14 Apr 2017 10:08

Hi!

I stream audiobooks from my webserver.
HTTP protocol and M4b file.

VLC 2.7.8 for iOS doesn't save the stream position making it useless for audiobooks. It start from the beginning - even though I told it to automatically resume in the settings. Am I doing something wrong?
(FYI: It also doesn't extract coverart from the file.)

Thanks,

Daniel :)

Hello,

VLC-iOS cannot store the playback position of streamed media, just of local content. I agree it's inconvenient for your use-case, but so far, nobody implemented this.
