VideoLAN has released VLC for iOS 2.1.0, a new version of the group’s massively popular video player for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPads.

VLC 2.10 adds support for subtitles in non-western languages, includes UPNP discovery and streaming, FTP server discovery, streaming and downloading, and uses Bonjour announcements for the Wi-Fi Uploader's website.

Users can now play back audio-only media and use a Deinterlace option (off by default), via a new menu and application flow.

Subtitles support has been improved, while VoiceOver and other accessibility functions have been updated. Also improved is Passcode Lock, video output on external screens, and more.

Finally, VLC for iOS now includes translations to Bosnian, Catalan, Galician, Greek, Marathi, Portuguese, and Slovenian.

VLC for iOS is compatible with iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPod touch (3rd generation), iPod touch (4th generation), iPod touch (5th generation), and iPad, and requires iOS 5.1.
