VLC for Android coming next month?

article published on 21 March, 2011

According to VLC developer Rémi Duraffort, the long-awaited VLC for Android could be coming next month, in beta form. Duraffort says "most of the components are working but we must work to make them fit together."

Awesome...I love VLC in spite of some of the major issues that never get fixed...you gotta love an app that will play files when you don't have codecs installed, and when the file itself is so broken that it causes windows media player to crash hard. I hope it has ISO support so I can just copy DVD images over to my phone to watch them.

Lol they are actually pretty cheap heres a class 2 for £15 or a class 4 for £45 But if i remember you need to have a min of a class 4 to keep up with 1080p video data rate, not that your probably gona bash that phone, depends on what you want the storage for i guess :) <-- lol remembered wrong see below CLASS=MB/s Speed.

Well, considering you can use these phones as HD video players (either via cable or on some, DLNA or other wireless), it's probably good to have as fast an microSD card as you can support...

Yeah but,

Class 0 cards do not specify performance, which includes all legacy cards prior to class specifications.
Class 2, 2 MB/s, slowest for SDHC cards.
Class 4, 4 MB/s.
Class 6, 6 MB/s.
Class 10, 10 MB/s.

Personally i could carry round a brick phone if i could hard wire a 300MB/s SSD drive into it :)

Found a 32GB Class 10 for £50 16GB were under half at £17

:) hell those older class dont go cheap do that lol.
