In Finnish we use comma as decimal separator. Maybe this is the reason, that I have comma also in the numeric keypad when I try to fill the IP address. I can use copy feature to fill the IP address.

I have to get the right settings to get connected, have to learn a bit.

Entering the IP also works if you use the commas instead. I entered the IP with commas, saved the settings, left the screen, and when I came back to it, the IP was written there with dots.

nothing appened

same here, tried yesterday, nothing happened.
Is there supposed to be some kind of confirmation to the user that
a) connection was made or b) connection failed?
that would be helpful.

The application can't confirm connection, it can only confirm if commands were sent successfully.

This VLC remote is different from others as it sends the commands when user presses them, it does not pool the VLC player for information thus consuming less power.

New update is out

Which is the latest version offered in jstore and which one in openrepos?
I have this situation when i have installed latest from openrepos, but in jstore i get update notification, which of course is failing to complete saying more or less "Problem with Store. Problem with installing vlc remote". I am guessing latest version is not approved in jstore yet?

Yes OpenRepost have the newest version it seems that Jolla store just checks if version numbers match and if they don't it says to update, but it does not check if the versions are lower or higher.
