ios vlc - smb://network connection
Could smb (windows file share) protocol be be added to the network options for the ios version? I think it is somewhat insane that the device doesn't provide network file access at the system level, but having in the app would be a useful workaround.

So far no, because we lack a library to do that.

Re: ios vlc - smb://network connection
If I understood correctly, the libsmb license does not conform with the Apple App Store guidelines... 
What about the FreeBSD smbfs library?
And I have not tried them, but there's also a lightweight iOS library named tango and another one named smb4ios!
Edit: Never mind, just got some good news in this other post!

Re: ios vlc - smb://network connection
smb4ios is Objective-C, so not really interesting.
FreeBSD smbfs is an interesting base, but not enough portable.
Tango is nice, but not feature complete.
