  I don't know, but I don't think so. But why do you ask? I thought that
you were looking for a DLNA-capable music player and VLC is that.

  Anyway, NFS is dead technology and has been broken since its inception

  I tried VLC on a (10.1") tablet, so perhaps it's different on a tiny
phone, but when I'm in a local folder - for example Internal memory >

- amongst others - has 'Local Network'.
