tvOS - Repeat Folder... but only repeats one file?

So. ATV4K, VLC, all updated.

Transferred some files via the remote playback local address.

Play a file, swipe down, playback, repeat set to 'folder'.

But... it still only repeats that 1 file?

I'm assuming 'folder' means whatever has been uploaded because I can't transfer the videos in as a folder or create a folder.... am I missing something?

So far, the folder option was respected for folders on a network share only. This changes in version 3.3.4 that is currently awaiting review by Apple for the App Store. The iOS version is already available, tvOS should follow within hours.

Got the update, looks like it's working

I'm assuming there's still no way to make it remember to keep the previously used settings? I find that I'll need to set shuffle on and repeat folder manually each time I restart the atv or some back from another app

Also, sometimes the settings doesn't seem to stick. I'll start playing 1, set to repeat folder and shuffle on, so the words themselves are lit, but it would play once through and not repeat

I'll see how to make that persistent. We added that for iOS recently, so the same should be doable for tvOS.
