Description

Adds infrared remote control support to VLC, enabling controlling VLC with infrared remote-control setups. It is useful when VLC needs this specific codec, output, device, storage, discovery, or network-media feature.

This package is a VLC plugin, not a standalone media player. It becomes useful through VLC, and untrusted media, credentials, devices, or network sources should still be handled carefully.
