Made the mistake of updating this app and now there is a permanent ad banner on the video screen. The version before didn’t have this so why now? You can’t even remove it as it stays there permanently blocking the video you’re watching since they didn’t even put it in a place that doesn’t block the actual video you’re watching. This is such an annoying feature. I wish I had not updated it. I understand that as a free app they need to make money and that isn’t an issue. Just do what other developers do and have an ad banner that can be removed or at least one that will disappear after the ad finishes playing. Instead these developers choose to keep the annoying ad banner on top of the video window obscuring the actual video you are trying to watch. Upgrading by paying to remove ads is the only way to get rid of the banner. This is the most annoying feature from what is usually a pretty good network media player. In light of this I’ve installed two new players - nPlayer Lite and Infuse who both display ads in a more tasteful way and both still allow me to stream videos from my NAS. I’ll be removing OPlayer Lite now.

In one of the images it says you can position the video, but this is a lie, you can’t actually move the video around. You can zoom in, but it only zooms in on the center of the video, making it completely pointless. It has nice features, but the whole reason I downloaded this was because it said you can move the video around, and that was just a complete lie.

I’m using this for music playback while driving, so maybe the joke’s on me (maybe this is more for movies?). The music playback is stopping as soon as I exit the player screen, e.g. to browse more music to add to playlist. Would be nice to have “always playing something” mode. Leaving the app or locking the screen also stops the playback—until tapping the screen, then it resumes. Strange. Playing / adding a folder with subfolders does nothing. Only leaf folders work correctly. I have my music organized by genre, artist and year in four level hierarchy so this is really annoying, having to enter each folder manually. Playing all files in a folder or adding to playlist does not sort the files in the folder by their track (or even alphabetically). So they will just play randomly, based on how they were copied to the phone (the playback order is filesystem dependent at that point). All in all I’m happy with what this does for me. Though it seems very basic features are missing after 8 years of development.
