problem with ios and vlc stream to

Postby drose1 » 22 Aug 2015 10:02

hey I have a local samba share, and it works perfectly, I can view all the files on it fomr any computer or samba compatible device, I can play the mp4 files through the regular player in my iphone 6+, when I click the avi files, my file browser (literally called FileBrowser the pro version tho) its highly rated, and worked perfectly like 2 weeks ago when I last tried using it, but today when I click stream to vlc vlc opens but nothing happens not sure whats going on? my samba share is fine the files are all readable i can connect to the share in my file browser no problem just the files that vlc specifically plays it wont play :S not sure whtas going on

edit:

if I copy the temp link created in FileBrowser and manually paste it into vlc network stream location the files will play, where before all I had to do was clikc stream to vlc, not sure whats happened

also anybody know how I cna get ac3 working on the iphone?

@FileBrowser: this will be fixed in the next update :)

For AC3, there is nothing you can do.

I always stream to VLC from filebrowser to download the movie onto VLC so that I can view it offline in my iphone 6+. It was working perfectly last year. Until recently, after download completed, the file will not show up in VLC. I will have to try many times in order to download one file. Do you have any idea why? I started experiencing this issue since I updated to the latest version of VLC. My current version of VLC is 2.7.8(278.1)
