Jika tidak dapat mengakibatkan orang tersebut tidak memiliki audio yang tepat atau video untuk video streaming. Audio akan dimainkan hanya melalui Mac Desktop dan tidak melalui Apple TV.
- When it comes to video playback, the cross-platform application VLC is a veritable Swiss Army knife. It's been popular on Windows, Mac, and Linux for a long time, but now you can get that same great plays-anything-under-the-sun power on your Apple TV.
Preliminary Note
VLC for iOS is different from what you can do with VLC on desktops. In some ways, you can do more; in other ways, you can do less. VLC for iOS only does media playback. Active streaming or file / stream-to-file conversations are not supported for usability and performance reasons. This walkthrough only includes screenshots of the iPhone interface for size reasons. However, all features are also available on iPad with virtually the same appearance.
High Quality Streaming. No More Mirroring. Beamer streams video directly so it will be played natively on Apple TV and Chromecast. No glitches, clicks, pops or other shenanigans.

Media Synchronization
There are multiple ways to synchronize media files to VLC for iOS. Those may be extended in future releases. Streaming without saving files using the limited space available on iOS devices is also supported. See below.
iTunes File Sharing
Using iTunes, you can add and delete files to VLC for iOS. Apple provides excellent documentation for this.
WiFi Sharing
If your iOS device and your Mac or PC is on the same local WiFi network, you can use WiFi Upload to add files to VLC for iOS' library.
Within VLC for iOS, click the cone button:
This will expose the sidebar menu. Locate the WiFi Sharing menu item. Notice the empty circle indicating the server's off-state and the description 'Inactive Server.' (Note: in earlier versions of VLC for iOS, you'll see a toggle button.)
Click the item or switch the toggle. A network address will appear in the item:
Enter the network address to your web browser on your Mac or PC on the same local network:
VLC for iOS' WiFi Sharing page will appear. You can drag any file stored on your Mac or PC to this window for immediate upload to your iOS device. Additionally, you can press the 'Upload files' button in the top-right to expose a file selector panel in case your files are not reachable by drag and drop. VLC for iOS' WiFi Sharing supports multiple uploads at the same time and will indicate through a progress bar when upload is complete.Because it's VLC after all, you can start the playback of most files on your iOS device as soon as they appear so you don't need to wait until the upload is done.Version 2.4 adds the ability to also download files stored on device through this page.
Dropbox
VLC for iOS natively supports Dropbox. Open the menu as described above, choose Dropbox. For the first time, a login button will appear. When clicking, you'll be redirected to the Dropbox app for login or to the web if you don't have Dropbox installed. VLC for iOS will receive read and write access to your entire Dropbox after login. However, VLC for iOS does not support any write actions (i.e. you cannot upload files from VLC for iOS to your Dropbox either), so don't worry about your file integrity.Starting in version 2.2, VLC for iOS can also stream contents from your Dropbox without downloading them first.
Google Drive
Similar to Dropbox, VLC for iOS natively supports Google Drive starting in version 2.2. Please check the process above for setup. Version 2.4 adds support for streaming files from Google Drive without having to download them first.
Box.com & OneDrive
Like with Dropbox and Google Drive, version 2.5.0 of VLC for iOS adds support for downloads and direct streaming for both providers.
iCloud Drive
With version 2.5.0 of VLC for iOS, any cloud services enabled app including iCloud Drive can be accessed from with the app on iOS 8 and later. While we don't support direct streaming, you can download files from wherever you want without relying on VLC's native implementation.
Downloads from the Web
The sidebar menu also includes an item called Downloads (or in earlier versions Download from Web Server). When selected, it will show the download queue and progress of downloads triggered through the network integration (see below) and exposes a field to enter a URL to directly download media from somewhere. Both HTTP and FTP are supported (earlier versions support HTTP only)
Network Integration
In addition to the media synchronization options described above, VLC for iOS provides a variety of options to interact with networking sources. Additionally, third-party websites and apps may include links to open streams directly in VLC for iOS.
Open Network Stream
Clicking on this item in the sidebar menu reveals a URL field to open a network stream. HTTP, FTP, MMS, MMSH, RTSP, UDP, and RTP streams are supported. Additionally, this view includes a list of your last 15 streams and an option to disable keeping history of your recent streams. Mac yash vs velvet teddy.
Local Network
Introduced in VLC for iOS 2.1, Local Network discovers and lists servers found on your local network. At present, this includes UPnP media servers and FTP servers announced via Bonjour / Rendezvous. Further options will be made available in future releases. Depending on the server capability, you can both stream and/or download the stored contents.
Clicking on 'Connect To Server' exposes the ability to connect to FTP servers not included in the list.
Playback
The controller panel provides access to basic playback controls, a video filter panel, audio and subtitles track selection as well as playback speed.The time slider at the top of the playback screen matches the default media player behavior by allowing you to seek at the pace you want. Next to it, you will find a 2-mode time counter and a button to control aspect ratio and cropping.VLC for iOS will remember the last playback position for media stored on your iOS device.
Gestures
Version 2.2 of VLC for iOS introduces gesture-based playback controls in addition to the ordinary buttons.
Tap the playback screen anywhere with 2 fingers to pause or play the current media. Pinch to end the current playback session and close the video.
Swipe to the left and right to change the playback position. Take picture on mac.
Adapt screen brightness by swiping vertically on the left-hand side of the playback view (gray hands). Change the current volume by swiping vertically on the right-hand side of the playback view (red hands).
AirPlay
VLC for iOS supports AirPlay video and audio streaming. To enable audio streaming, just activate the AirPlay switch which will automatically appear next to the volume slider as soon as your iOS device discovers an AirPlay capable playback device (an Apple TV, a multi-media receiver, etc.).For video playback via AirPlay, it's slightly more difficult due to AirPlay API limitations. Apple does not allow to show an AirPlay button for video playback within an Apple if the app does not use the default media player, which VLC does not for the sake of supporting formats other than H264 / MPEG4. As a work-around, you need to use the AirPlay mirroring featuring available from the multi-tasking bar (shown when double-clicking the physical home button on your iOS device).
Subtitles and multiple audio tracks
If your media includes subtitles or multiple audio tracks, buttons will appear in the playback controller to switch streams. VLC for iOS will remember the last chosen audio or subtitles track for future playback.If your media does not include subtitles, but you'd like to show some, give them a similar name to the media item, synchronize them and VLC for iOS will discover them automatically.
Chapters and titles
With version 2.5.0 and later, you can navigate through your media based on the chapters and titles information includes with Matroska/MKV and MP4 files.
Video Filters
Like VLC media player on desktops, VLC for iOS allows you to modify the video's colors in real time. Brightness will adapt your device's physical luminance unless you play your media on an external screen, where it will fallback on a software mode.
Playback Speed
Microsoft office 2012 for mac free. Clicking the clock button to the left of the playback controller reveals a slider with a logarithmic scale to adapt the playback speed to your needs. In recent versions, synchronization options for subtitles and audio as well as a playback timer are also available from this menu.
Equalizer
In version 2.5.0 or later, a 10-band equalizer is available through the 'more' button on the right side of the playback controls. Note that the button will not appear in portrait mode on iPhone.
A word on audio playback
Airplay Vlc Macbook
VLC for iOS 2.0.x refuses any audio-only media playback. Basic support was added in VLC for iOS 2.1 along with Music Album handling. Future updates will further improve the current feature set by introducing media artwork display, playlists, playlist operations such as shuffling or repeat, and more.
Media Library
Your media collection. It offers basic information about each file, such as length, resolution, or file size. Your last playback position is visualized through an orange triangle at the bottom of the snapshot, unless it's new or fully played.
Smart handling of music albums and TV shows
VLC for iOS 2.1 added smart handling of music albums and TV shows. Based upon meta tags and pattern matched file names, VLC for iOS will automatically detect TV shows and music albums. Switching the library mode in the sidebar menu will reveal dynamic collections for either category. 'All Files' switches back to the default mode listing all files available on your iOS device within the VLC context.
How are TV shows detected by VLC for iOS?—at present, based upon the file name. The following schemes are supported in current releases: 'Show.Name.S01E01.Optional.Episode.Name' or 'Show.Name.0x00.Optional.Episode.Name'. Show Name will become optional in version 2.2.1. Detection for more schemes will be part of future releases.
Media grouping in folders
VLC for iOS 2.3 adds support for folders and custom grouping of your media content. A folder also acts as a playlist.In the latest version (2.4.1) you can drag and drop files within a folder, but folders cannot be dragged and dropped. The files or folders cannot be listed automatically in alphabetical order. However, these functions may change as the latest app becomes more stable.
Passcode lock
You can lock the app with a passcode. The current versions of VLC for iOS will always ask for it whenever the app is pushed to the foreground. Additionally, your library contents will be hidden away from the multi-tasking switcher. Starting with version 2.3, playback is stopped if passcode lock is enabled and the app is moved to the background to protect your privacy.
I forgot my passcode
If you forget your passcode, you need to delete the application and re-install it. This will reset both the settings and the media library. There is no way to recover it. However, you can backup your files using iTunes first.To back up your files using iTunes, sync your iOS device with your computer.
I want to use another passcode
Disable passcode lock in VLC's Settings and re-enable it. It will ask you to enter a new passcode.
