Missing some basic functions ?

Postby Puma » 02 Dec 2021 10:14

Hello,

I have recently been using VLC on Apple TV and I cannot find the basic functions as on Android TV, namely:

- Go back a few seconds
- Fast forward very fast, not just fast forward x2 or x3 but quickly go to a time in the video by clicking only a few times on the "forward" button
- Resume playing where it left off.

In the settings I don't see any advanced options to customize the behavior of VLC.

Is this normal or am I unable to find the right menu to activate this? In this case, how to do?
If not, will these functions be functional soon?

Thank you.

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to give us feedback.

The Apple TV version didn't get much love in the recent years so some basic functionnaly are indeed missing.

Currently we are mainly focusing on fixing some issues on the iOS counterpart but we should get into working more on the TV app next year (2022).

Not much work was done on the tvOS port last year. Maybe this year is a good one?
