I had to uninstall - reinstall to get RTM to stop vlcrashing.

Hi drfrankbuck,
Sorry that the app update didn't help for you!

Reinstalling should help, and it may be possible to clear the app data & cache also if you don't want to reinstall (and have to adjust widgets, namely).

I hope this helps for you but keep me posted on what you find!

I had the same problem and once I cleared all the data (not just cache) and re-logged in on mobile app it worked fine. I didn't need to re-install to fix it.
