VLCTelecontrol is a widespread
application for Nokia and Android phones that lets you use your
smartphone as a remote control for VideoLAN Client (on
all operating systems).
The connection between VideoLAN
Client (VLC) and VLCTelecontrol is free if you use the Wireless LAN
(WiFi). If you wish, you can also use the connection of your mobile
operator, but it is not advisable unless you have a flat subscription.
VLCTelecontrol Free
displays advertising banners that are downloaded via the Internet: it is
therefore preferable to use a wifi router with a DSL flat so you do not
have to pay the traffic data. Obviously, VLCTelecontrol
Full doesn't contains advertising.
Another difference between free and commercial edition is that the
latter in addition to the play/pause button has also the mute and volume
high/low buttons.
Support is available on facebook
and by e-mail
(vlctelecontrol@altervista.org).
