I was trying to install VLC on my android nexus 4 the other day and apparently it's not in the Play store? I ended up installing "Joe VLC" instead. I wonder if there will be an official android release?

We are not happy yet on the quality of VLC for Android, so it is not out of beta. However, you can try yourself here: http://nightlies.videolan.org/build/armv7-android/VLC-debug-20130714-0125.apk http://nightlies.videolan.org/build/armv7-android/VLC-debug-...

  Are there any plans to make the Play Store beta available to North American users? From what I recall, the issue was not having NA devices to test against. It seems like the gaps in chipsets and devices have narrowed (e.g. Qualcomm chipsets used more widely as LTE spreads, US Note 2 using Exynos 4 like the international versions, etc.) so I was wondering if anything had changed on that front.

  Haha, I didn't know VLC alpha wasn't available outside of Europe(France?) on Play Store ! I'm happy to know it can work both ways =) Seriously though, I understand the constraints, especially since VLC is trying to use hardware acceleration when available, then not testing on real devices can really affect quality (crashing alpha? 1-star on play store!)
