VLC on iOS says "no storage space left" when storage available on phone memory
I tried to add around 10 GB of movies (each around 1.4 to 2 GB each) to my iPhone 14 Pro Max (256 GB) with around 172 GB of free storage left using iTunes File Sharing option with the VLC app. Three movies, each around 1.5 GB transferred, whereas the rest failed stating "no storage space left". The same result occurs with the no storage message appearing on the phone when I attempt a VLC wifi transfer. I have been through multiple threads online, but none seem to give me a proper answer on how to rectify this. I use iCloud+ to optimize my photo storage by the way, which occupies less than 1 GB now, and VLC sync to iCloud is disabled.
