Honestly, great. Best I have seen on Android in terms of playback quality, efficiency in battery usage, and outright performance. It plays videos my tablet can't play natively with almost no dropped frames and my tablet is not very powerful. Other, 3rd party players either didn't play at all or struggled with those formats. Only need two more features to be perfect: Casting support, and a slightly better interface or more customisation of said Interface. Otherwise, best there is on Android.

MPV is my go-to media player on both macOS and Windows. I'm glad to see this android port works very well and it works exactly in the manner I want: no fancy Library view, just a Files view to navigate and play smoothly. The playback interface is minimal, swipe right/left to seek, swipe up/down to change brightness or volume. This is all I want personally for a media player on mobile.

Recently added features to change the offset for audio and subtitles from video, which is nice, but also recently changed the way filenames display so as to show the starting and end, which is not nice. Now when I have a TV show downloaded, it shows the name of the show and the code at the end, but not the actual episode number. Please have it scroll or allow us to choose how we want it displayed via options

I basically found out about this app because it the only media player app that let you brighten up your videos way pass the norm particularly dark scene. Outside that it needs a lot of work. My biggest pet peave with this app is the fact you can't globally set a default video directory . Everytime I start up the app I have to set the directory and a better interface

Good promise, but very underdeveloped. I love mpv on PC, and this app lets me watch mkv files while the default player doesn't. However, this app currently doesn't support pausing by tapping your earbuds, which means that you have to take out your phone just to pause a video. I can't do that at work. I can't use this. It's also difficult just to get it to move forward in a playlist properly. It comes with a file manager that can't sort by date, and it doesn't work seamlessly with Gallery.

Like its PC counterpart, minimal and unobtrusive UI. If you have playback issues and no access to a PC, grab Termux from F-droid (this one's out of date), install ffmpeg and re-encode (tutorial not included, RTFM or use Google/Bing)... But it's unlikely. So far I have only encountered one file that didn't play smoothly and I have use this for years.

Out of all video players, only MPV can play AV1 videos on my old Android 10 Lenovo A8 phone. However, it cannot play any of AV1 videos at all on my old Android 10 Tanix6s TV Box. Would've been great if it could on both devices, because most of my AV1 videos was downloaded into my TV Box internal storage.

Thanks for the fabulous job man. There's one request from my end, Pl enable automatic full screen (Pan/Scan) play by default playing any file. Thanks. Current option quite difficult to navigate (settings - advanced - aspect ratio - pan/scan) for every video file.
