Ratings and reviews

The new aspect ratio settings have me scratching my head. Before, the app seemed to default to the correct aspect ratio as far as I could tell, but now the default is 1:1 scale which for some reason squashes the image. Even more puzzling, there's nowhere to change the default to "no scale" which fixes the issue, since it is a setting only accessible after you launch the video. I have to adjust the setting for. every. video. Did I mention you have to watch a 30 second ad to access the settings?

New update has completely broken the player for me as well, none of my videos that previously worked fine will even play anymore. Audio works but video doesnt play. Checked videos that were working very recently and they wont play anymore. Been using var's player regularly for 5-6 years so this is very disappointing as it's been such a great app. EDIT: New update has indeed fixed the issues, happy to be back to using Var's player as I don't like the other apps as much.

Update 2: Updated on 2024-04-13, still not showing files. Folders do not have anything but letters in the path, no periods, and are on the internal storage. Guess I'll stick with v3.10. Using Samsung A13. - Update: Version 3.40 did not fix the problem. My folders with MP4 files still show as empty in the app. - Doesn't work anymore. Used to be the best, but now it can't find or play videos that used to work fine. But hey, at least ads started working. 🙄 Last working version was 3.10.
