Better Remote Support
Posted: 21 May 2009 08:24
Hi,
The remote has limited abilities, but is handy. I often find the remote will not select the video I want it to play because there is no way of moving through the playlist. This is especally true because I use both the infrared remote and rowmote a wifi remote for the iphone. With rowmote, it will launch VLC, but after that, can not navagate through the playlist, library etc.
The << and >> buttons currently have no function on the remote when vlc is running & selected but there is nothing playing. Can these buttons navagate up and down the playlist, media library?
I would also like to suggest that if the remote is being used, and the volume is at maximum, and there is still a request for higher volume from the remote, that it starts to increase the system volume. This way one does not have to get up and increase the system volume when this happens.
Thanks very much for such a great app.
