Hi Folks,
Apple just approved a fairly major update to VLC Streamer.
Key improvements are:
* You can now copy converted movies to your device easily (so you can watch them on the plane or when you are away from your computer)
* Improved code for keeping the streaming connection (should reduce buffering)
* Supports playing movies in the background over airplay
Get the update, or give it a try at the Appstore…
I just released version 3 of Off Remote.
The major new feature is that you can now send timed commands, so you can send a command telling your computer to turn off in 1 hour – or to go to sleep in 45 mins, or to log off, hibernate or restart.
I use it to turn off my media PC after playing video, and to set a timer on my computer when it is playing audio at night.
There are quite a few users who use it to check that their kids really have turned off their computers when they were supposed to!
You can get it at the app store now!
Off Remote is now uploaded and ready for your translations at www.Apptranslate.com
If you’d like to see Off Remote in your language, then please head over and translate a couple of strings – or even the whole app.

Thanks in advance,

One kind VLC Streamer user has built a helper for Linux.
It is at an early (command line) stage – but it works, and if you are interested, you can give it a try!
We’re on Facebook. Click ‘like’ if you’d like to follow updates through Facebook.
Streaming by the power of VLC!
My new app just went live. It uses VLC to convert movies into the format needed to stream them to your iPhone, iPod or iPad.
It can handle most movie types, and can start streaming your movie within 10 seconds or so.
Now your whole movie collection is available on your iPod or iPad without syncing or converting.
The full version is $0.99
Or the free version (with annoying ads) is available to let you try it out.
Just got the email from Apple saying that they have approved 5.50 for iPhone/iPad.
You should be able to update it from the App Store now.
-Added ability to browse YouTube videos and play them on your computer
-Added ability to share what you are watching in Facebook, Twitter, etc..
-Added indicator to show which item in playlist is playing
-Fixed the subtitles autoload problem
-Fixed the problem with deleting skins
And you can now follow VLC Remote on Facebook…
I just submitted version 5.50 today.
It has a number of really cool features that I’m really excited about.
Youtube and Facebook both get a look-in…
