VLC for IOS

Postby dpDesignz » 09 Apr 2012 04:25

Does anyone know if VLC for IOS will be back at all? I have it on one iPad but want it on another one, but I'm not sure how to do this as they have to separate apple ID's

There is no way to do so except for using the Apple ID you used to download MobileVLC on both iPads.

I cannot comment on future products or releases of VideoLAN at this point.

If your iPad is jailbroken, you can still get VLC on it. You can download the VLC app here: http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-ios.html

Extract the zip file and drag VLC.app into iTunes. To install it then on your iPad sync your apps with iTunes.

Alternatively, get the .ipa file that iTunes created by right-clicking on the VLC app in the Apps section of iTunes and choosing "Show in Finder/Explorer". That IPA file can then be installed using iExplorer and Installous. A video tutorial on that can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eonkdtq9NCg It's the same process under Windows and OS X.
