This is specifically for Chromecast I've tried a bunch of different Video/Audio players and none of them were close to this player in just working especially when working with external storage. It is also really fast, hands down the fastest compared to the free video players I tried, well worth the money

awsome. audio passthru just works, synced with video. smb just works, even anonymously. its the only player i know so far, that'll just keep your zoom settings. no weird glitches or audio lags when seeking... all those little things, you'd expect vlc to do but it just wouldn't. perfect

Great video player especially for playing anime subtitles but a lot of times when I'm using the rewind -10 secs sometimes it doesn't work although it works for -20 secs which is kinda tedious for me.One more thing,I wish we can just press the left or right key to forward 10 secs or playback -10secs like with exoplayer and VLC instead of having to press right or left key then press the ok button to forward or rewind a video plus it's nice if we can customize the duration too.

Installed on Google TV but clicking on the icon does nothing. Can't even install the app and Google won't allow a refund for some reason.

One of the best video players for Android, with Dolby Vision, auto frame rate, full audio passthrough, and many other features that actually work. Good job guys
Lewin Edwards
Works very well and intuitively for DLNA sharing. Wasn't able to get it to work at all with SMB, unfortunately (Windows 10 host), but the overall performance and features of the app are worth 5 stars anyway. Totally worth the $.

Excellent player! But I haven't found an option to disable subtitles by default. Is it possible? Or the only option is to disable subtitles every time a file is opened?

After years of frustration, I finally found an app that plays all my movies smoothly (including HEVC) with audio pass-through that's actually working on my Sony Bravia Android TV.
