It works! Get it!
Apparently it takes some sort of skill to install and operate, but I found the process simple and the interface intuitive. This app does almost everything. Even communicates with my ext hard drive. Even controls frame by frame. EVEN PAUSES YOUR FEATURE WHEN YOUR PHONE RINGS!! The list goes on and on.....
Best app ever .
If you have VLC and ios5 buy this. 5 bones is all you need to keep yourself comfortable and lazy. Heaven, as long as you don't mind reading a little bit.
The latest update requires you to disable all your security features
Requires you to disable your firewall and antivirus. They recommend installing their hobbyist antivirus which is currently only available for windows.
