Trouble playing network streams

[dtay]

Hi, since new update on Apple devices, i can no longer use the open network stream without getting the following code. "VLC could not identify the audio or video codec". all i then hear is audio but no video ive been using VLC with the same stream for months with no problems. is there anything i can do?

Thanks

Hi,
I also have exactly same problem since upgrade. Its very frustrating that there is absolutley no way to "downgrade" or roll back.

The stream i watch is: http://208.167.236.13:8124/;stream.nsv
Also, can you guys please add geometry settings to the Ipad version, for flipped and reversed videos? (like on the PC version)
Thanks.
Hope this helps.
Great app by the way!

Yeah same as me. Great app. But in the interim I've being using GoodPlayer from App Store.

Would be great if VLC could sort it

just d/l'd it then, looks ok.

hope they can fix this VLC player quickly.

Confirmed as broken in 2.2.0

What does that mean? Is it an issue with VLC?

With VLC for iOS 2.3, we upgraded the decoding backend. While previous releases used the current version still deployed in our desktop releases, the current iOS version is using the decoding backend of the future, which we will release for desktops in about 6 weeks.
Apparently, this bug was not noticed before, but we will fix it for the next iOS update and of course the desktop releases.

What's a bit confusing about all this, is our numbering scheme: VLC for iOS 2.3 uses libvlc 2.2, which will be released as VLC 2.2 to our desktop users, while VLC for iOS will move on to 2.4 very soon (while still using libvlc 2.2).
