VideoLAN, the company behind the popular cross-platform VLC media player, has announced that users of some of Huawei’s newer handsets won’t be able to download the open-source player from the Google Play Store any longer.

The decision to blacklist the phone maker came after several VLC users left negative reviews on the Play Store for audio playback issues. However, VideoLAN holds Huawei responsible for audio failing on the app, blaming it on the phone manufacturer’s “ridiculous policy of killing all background apps”.
