Yes. All you need to do is to install VLC and organize your files in a given folder structure. It's also possible to add covers then. If, for example, you want to add the file MyMovie.avi, the folder structure should look like this:

Title of my movie/VIDEO_TS/MyMovie.avi
Title of my movie/File with Cover.jpg

Title of my movie/VIDEO_TS/MyMovie part 1.avi
Title of my movie/VIDEO_TS/MyMovie part 2.avi
Title of my movie/VIDEO_TS/MyMovie part 3.avi
Title of my movie/File with Cover.jpg

The names of the movie- and coverfiles are freely choosable - you only need to make sure the suffix fits the format of the file. Supported formats for cover files include JPEG, PNG and GIF.

In Remote Buddy's menu, you can then start playback of your movies complete with existing covers in the context menu of the VLC Behaviour.

"Left" - up by one level in the menu
"Right" and "Play" - choose the current entry
"Left hold" - go to the main menu
"Plus" and "Minus" - scroll through the entries
"Menu hold" - jump to the first entry of the current menu
"Menu" - fade in/out the onscreen menu

To enable you to use all capabilities of the IR Receiver of your Mac®, Remote Buddy is using its own driver. In contrast, all other applications with integrated Apple® Remote support usually use the OS X Apple® Remote subsystem.

As long as you're running Remote Buddy, Remote Buddy and its driver are responsible for turning the received button presses into actions. As soon as you quit Remote Buddy, this task is again handled by the OS X Apple® Remote subsystem.

If other applications don't use the interface to the OS X Apple® Remote subsystem correctly, this can lead to the effect that nothing happens when you press a button on your Apple® Remote. For as long as you're running Remote Buddy, issues like this are covered by Remote Buddy and it's driver and are therefore not visible to you. However, as soon as you quit Remote Buddy, the OS X Apple® Remote subsystem is back in control and any issues caused in it by other applications become visible.

Therefore Remote Buddy is neither the cause of the issue nor is it responsible for it. Instead, the cause of the issue exists independently of Remote Buddy. It's located elsewhere and can also only be solved there.

Although our products can't cause any such issues, we're regularly contacted about such issues and asked for help. In order to make locating and fixing the cause of such issues as easy and efficient as possible, we've developed a free diagnostics tool: Remote Control Diagnostics. It can locate issues with a single click and will provide you with information about the issue as well as with instructions on how you can fix it.
