Popular Video Player VLC App Store is Back

We announced  about 2-3 years ago that iPhone and iPad versions of VLC which is one of the most important programmes.

But VLC having  a free and open source software has experienced licence problems, and VLC removed it from App Store at the request of organization –VideoLAN team—that is a master developer of VLC.

Two years later it comes back to App Store after the licence problems have been solved.
I wanted to share a variety of video and impressions  and  types of tests that I did.
First, the current iOS version of VLC is not  the AVPlayer, CinexPlayer OPlayer  developing further also.
But again, you see the basic features strictly.

First of all, the iOS version of VLC is universal so it is compatible with both iPhone and iPad.
As far as I have tested ,it promoted most popular video formats such as the avi, mkv and mp4 .
Also, there is no problem while playing back 720p mkv video files.



The application can show the subtitle files of videos.
The subtitle file must have the same name as the video file, just to be different extensions.(For example: test.mkv and test.srt)
At the beginning of the text I shared there is no problem about playing back the videos and subtitles that are the basic functions of VLC.
Because language can be chosen as encoding from Settings.

At the beginning of the text I shared there is no problem about playing back videos and subtitles that are the basic functions of VLC .
But it cannot be said that it is competent about features now.
For example, the name of the files can not be changed from within the application.
Or  font, size and color of the subtitles can not be changed.


The settings that we can make when playing video are like in the other paid video applications.
There are many methods of the installation of a video to this application.
