Suggestion on how the Media names display in the new version of the app.
I think these most recent updates to the app have been the most that it’s changed since i’ve been using it. I’d like to offer a suggestion regarding how the media titles are displayed on the various lists. I name the titles of the media i record (and play back in VLC) first by the date and then the location it was recorded, and then the title of the song. WAY more characters than the 8-character limit to files names back in the days of early DOS versions!! LOL I would like the titles of the media listed in VLC to word wrap to a second line, rather than truncate at the end of the first line. Or at least have the option to have them do that. Because in my case, there will be 6–10 titles that all start with the same name, and the part that is different is the part that gets truncated off.

Just what I want with one bad glitch
I need a player that can play local audio files in various formats --- especially 44k 32bit float PCM wav files -- and the ability to make ordered playlists from the local files. VLC fit the bill perfectly, but I am having two problems. First, I don't see any obvious way to order a playlist. It seems to just be alphabetical. Maybe because I have not read the files with id3 or the wav equivalent. To order them I have to rename them before putting them in the playlist. Maybe that will be better if I tag them though. The second problem is pretty major. For any 44k32bit wav, the beginning of every file stutters, making the start of the song. Since I'm mainly concerned with the transitions between songs today, it was a real problem. I have not checked if this is true for other formats.

Some bugs
I have been using this app for months now. Overall, it’s a good app. It’s so easy to use and simple. But I have encountered some bugs recently. Sometimes when I add files to vlc using iTunes, the added files get duplicated. And when I try to delete one of the duplicated files, all of the copies get deleted. So then I have to add the files again with iTunes. I even looked at the vlc folder in the files app on iOS. I didn’t see any duplicated files there. Looks like the problem is with the app and not iTunes. Another drawback of the app is that you can’t make folders for organizing files. So when you have a lot of files on your phone, you just have to scroll or search to find them. I didn’t give the app a five star rating only because of these problems. Hope they are fixed soon.
