将您的iPhone或iPod Touch用作VLC的遥控器

If you’re a fan of VLC for your multimedia needs, and have an iPhone or iPod Touch, you might want to use it as a remote. Here we take a look at a couple of free apps that allow you to do it easily.

如果您是满足多媒体需求的VLC的拥护者，并且拥有iPhone或iPod Touch，则可能希望将其用作遥控器。 在这里，我们看了几个免费的应用程序，它们使您可以轻松地做到这一点。

VLC雷姆科 (VLC Remco)

One free app that does a pretty good job is VLC Remco from HexBeerium. It’s cross-platform and works on Windows, Mac, and Linux. Although it appears this app hasn’t been worked on for a while, it did a good job with VLC on our Windows machines. Just install it from the iTunes App Store or directly from your device.

HexBeerium的VLC Remco是一款表现出色的免费应用。 它是跨平台的，可在Windows，Mac和Linux上运行。 尽管看来该应用程序已有一段时间没有使用，但在Windows计算机上使用VLC还是表现出色。 只需从iTunes App Store或直接从您的设备安装即可。

After you launch it, it scans your network for computers that have VLC installed and which one(s) have it running.

启动它后，它将扫描网络中是否安装了VLC以及正在运行哪个VLC的计算机。

If you don’t see the computers running VLC in the remote, open VLC and go to Tools \ Preferences.

如果您没有在远程计算机上看到运行VLC的计算机，请打开VLC并转到“工具” \“首选项”。

Under Show settings select All and go to Interface \ Main interfaces the check the box HTTP remote control interface then click Save and restart VLC.

在“ 显示设置”下，选择“所有”，然后转到“接口\主接口”，选中“ HTTP远程控制接口 ”框，然后单击“保存并重新启动VLC”。

After changing the above setting we were able to connect to 4 different computers. Two of which are running Windows 7, one on Vista, and running XP over Wi-Fi.

更改上述设置后，我们可以连接到4台不同的计算机。 其中两个正在运行Windows 7，一个在Vista上，并且在Wi-Fi上运行XP。

If you have Windows Firewall enabled you might be prompted to allow it access to your machine.

如果启用了Windows防火墙，则可能会提示您允许它访问您的计算机。

Just tap on the computer you want to connect with to remote control VLC and browse to the location of your music or video files.

只需点击要连接到远程控制VLC的计算机，然后浏览到音乐或视频文件的位置。

Then you’ll have basic play back controls while kicking back in your chair and not having to use the keyboard and mouse to navigate media.

然后，您将拥有基本的播放控件，同时可以将椅子向后踢，而无需使用键盘和鼠标来浏览媒体。

VLC远程免费 (VLC Remote Free)

While VLC Remco gives you basic controls for navigating VLC, you might want something that is more advanced. Here we look at VLC Remote Free, which is ad supported, but does offer more control. You can upgrade to the pro version for $4.99 and we have a link to a review of the full version below.

尽管VLC Remco为您提供了导航VLC的基本控件，但您可能需要更高级的功能。 这里我们看一下VLC Remote Free，它受广告支持，但确实提供了更多控制权。 您可以以$ 4.99的价格升级到专业版，我们在下面提供了完整版的评论链接。

After installing it on your iOS device, you’ll need to head over to their website and download the Remote Setup Helper and install it on your Mac or PC. Setup is simple following the wizard defaults.

在iOS设备上安装后，您需要转到他们的网站并下载Remote Setup Helper并将其安装在Mac或PC上。 按照向导的默认设置进行设置很简单。

Then click on Setup VLC in Standard view.

然后在“标准”视图中单击“设置VLC”。

And that’s all there is to it! You should now be able to add computers and start using your device as a remote.

这就是全部！ 现在，您应该能够添加计算机并开始将设备用作遥控器。

Because it’s the free version…not all of the options are available to you…like browsing for a file to play.

因为它是免费版本，所以并非所有选项都可供您使用……就像浏览要播放的文件一样。

You’ll need to start your music or video on your computer first.

您需要先在计算机上启动音乐或视频。

Then you can control the playback and certain other options from your iOS device.

然后，您可以从iOS设备控制播放和某些其他选项。

Slide the time bar at the top to get to a particular area in your video. And slide the volume bar at the bottom to adjust the sound.

滑动顶部的时间栏，即可转到视频中的特定区域。 并滑动底部的音量条以调节声音。

If you go into Settings, you can actually boost the sound on VLC up to 400% which comes in handy for videos or recordings with low sound quality.

如果进入“设置”，则实际上可以将VLC上的声音增强到400％，这对于音质较低的视频或录制非常有用。

The free version allows you a bit more control over VLC than Remco, however it does require installing the Remote Helper, and to get the full set of features you’ll need to pay $4.99.

免费版比Remco允许您对VLC进行更多控制，但是它确实需要安装Remote Helper，并且要获取全部功能，您需要支付$ 4.99。

If you’re looking for basic remote control of VLC from you iPhone or iPod Touch, either of these apps should be adequate. But, if you want the full set of features in VLC Remote, you’ll need to shell out a few bucks.

如果您正在从iPhone或iPod Touch上寻找VLC的基本远程控制，则这些应用程序都应该足够。 但是，如果您想要VLC Remote中的全部功能，则需要花几美元。
