VLC Streamer Helper for Windows

download

VLC Streamer Helper for Mac OS

We now have an unsupported Helper for Linux.

You can also see our alternate versions

2) Run the Helper

The setup Helper will install itself.

If you use the default firewall on your system, then the helper will configure that correctly.

If you use your own firewall application, then you'll need to make sure it allows VLC Streamer to communicate through the firewall

3) That's It!

By now, you should be able to see your computer in the VLC Streamer app on your iPhone/iPad/iPod'.

Tap on the computer and enjoy!

If you don't see your computer immediately, you can tap on the rescan button (bottom left of the screen) to re-scan the network
