VLC In Xbox ONE, BUG or Solution?

Postby FabioAJ » 15 Aug 2017 12:44

Good morning, I installed VLC on my XBOX ONE, it worked very well, but after a while, it stored a movie, in the videos folder, without internet or any network, the movie is available offline, without any external device connected. I do not know how this happened, could anyone tell me how to do this, I would like to store other movies on xbox, for may childrens. Or was it just an isolated bug? Thank you.

Hi FabioAJ,

So to transfer files from your computer to your Xbox using WiFi:
- Open the app on Xbox.
- Open your browser on your computer and go to http://192.168.1.123:8080
- Drag and Drop files (or use the "+" at the top right).
- They should appear in the app once the transfer completes.

Let me know if that works for you.

Hi Mfkl.

It works.

The questions is - where the files are uploaded? I can't find them to delete them.
Tried to run File Explorer on XBOX. Where are the file uploaded this way and how to delete them?

Thanks!

They're uploaded to the local cache folder of the app. Don't think you can browse/delete it directly on Xbox

To view your saved files, Download an app on your xbox called "My Files Explorer", I believe there is a free trial for a week that costs $5 after expired. Once downloaded, open the app and go to Isolated Storage > Packages (On the top bar that resembles the File Search Bar on a Windows PC) > VideoLAN.VLC_??? (A few random characters will appear instead of the ???) > Local Cache > Media. There you can copy, move or delete any form of media stored in the VLC app.

Hope this helps :)
