1. Connect bluetooth headphones.
2. Play a song in VLC that has audio immediately at the beginning (i.e., does not start with silence).
I then hear a brief blip of audio, silence for perhaps half a second, and then the audio continues. This also happens at the start of each song in the playlist.
This does not happen with other players (Apple Music) and the same headphones, so I don't think it's an issue with the headphones.

This feature is not working - it is not updating the File list. Still same list of files/folders is visible (even if I renamed/added/deleted any file in shared folder).
Note: The date in top message "Last updated on ...date-time..." is changing correctly on every slide from the top.
Only the way, how to update the folder list, is to go away from File Server folders to "Local Network" view and open File Server again.
Version: VLC iOS 3.1.94.0.0Felix Paul Kühnefkuehne@videolan.orgFelix Paul Kühnefkuehne@videolan.orghttps://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc-ios/-/issues/344iOS: Bluetooth audio drops out with higher playback speeds2019-11-22T01:30:00ZNathan HenrieiOS: Bluetooth audio drops out with higher playback speedsThis has been an issue for about a year (see attached iOS App Store review -- not mine, just to mark time), but I don't see any existing issues so thought I'd make one.

I live in an area with very poor internet (reliability and speeds), and I use VLC mostly to watch online educational content that I download overnight (or over the course of several days or weeks) while I walk to work or do chores. I have my default playback speed set to 1.5x, which suits my needs.
Unfortunately, my bluetooth headphones (Apple AirPods) lose audio any time I scrub playback position. When I started having this issue a year or so ago, I noted the attached app store review that noted that lowering the playback speed seems to bring the audio back, and indeed it does. Every time I scrub position (or even just jump 15 seconds forward or back), it almost always loses audio, so I bring up the clock button (bottom left corner), transiently drop playback speed down to <0.8x, which brings back the audio, then I can bring it back up to 1.5x and it continues.
If I leave the default speed at 1x, everything seems to work fine -- audio continues as expected in spite of scrubbing. However, if I put default at 1x but manually take the speed back to 1.5x the symptoms return.
I'm using an iPhone X on iOS12.1, but I believe noticed the behavior first on my iP7 / iOS11. It is the same with Apple Airpods, Anker Soundbuds Curve, and using my Amazon Echo as a bluetooth speaker. I have tried toggling settings regarding time stretching audio and hardware video decoding with no change in behavior. I've seen the behavior with a number of types of video files. I'm currently on VLC 3.1.3 and have noticed this for around a year (likely ~2.8.4 or so?), but I can't say exactly when it started.
I've attached a screen recording of this behavior, including the audio (which is coming through my bluetooth headset, that I positioned near my iPhone's microphone). It goes through the audio loss 3 times -- the first two to show the process, and the 3rd time I leave a longer lag time to show that the audio doesn't seem to fix itself spontaneously (IOW showing that changing the speed slower doesn't seem just coincident with the restoration of audio, but causative).

Thanks for your work on a great product. I've never done any iOS or Swift / ObjC development and would be in far over my head, but I'd be happy to try to help figure out the issue.

I have a strange behavior of Windows shared folders. It works perfectly on Windows 10 at my home network, without any issues. For an example, if I try to open `\\192.168.0.153\` from my laptop, which is `192.168.0.104`, it will show a list of shared folders. And vice versa, if I try to open `\\192.168.0.104\` from `192.168.0.153` pc it will show a list of laptop's shared folders.
But here is an issue with iOS application VLC. When i try to open Windows Network on VLC it works. Here is a video:
![oMRw2](/uploads/372dda36c927522d7c4bc97f88bfc37a/oMRw2.gif)
But as soon as I create a new shared folder on Windows PC it fails without any error message. Here is a creation of new shared folder on Windows:
![Zqumx](/uploads/8eac5cdc3585ece9d6addcc698921666/Zqumx.gif)
And here is how VLC will react on this:
![D5aAw](/uploads/26e72870ef45b81333d47b8a5b7be2cc/D5aAw.gif)
Something is wrong with Windows Share and VLC can't access shared folders anymore.
The most interesting thing is that if I delete the newly created shared folder, then VLC will work.
I don't sure if this is Windows bug or iOS/VLC, but if it works without any new shared folders maybe it could be fixed on Windows side.
Any ideas how to fix this?

SMBv1/CIFS has been deprecated for years and Microsoft and other vendors long ago moved on to SMBv2 and SMBv3 protocols, disabling SMBv1 on initial install and in OS updates. Recent Windows updates have disabled SMB1 on Windows Server 2008R2 and probably on newer OS versions (although I haven't checked them).https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc-ios/-/issues/134VLC iOS no longer renders webm files properly2018-03-18T11:09:05ZhavefeithVLC iOS no longer renders webm files properlyBasically, any webm file (that's under the extension .webm, in case you didn't actually know) no longer renders properly as of the latest version on iOS.

4. Scrub forward or backward multiple times (either with the seek gesture or the double tap gesture).
Expected behaviour: On playback, the media's playback position is moved depending on the total scrubs. Scrubbing 5 times on 10 second intervals should initiate a 50 second jump backward/forward in the media.
Real behaviour: On playback, the media's playback position is moved only 1 interval in the direction of the user's scrubbing.
