Ratings and reviews

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

it can open video files with crashes, it's a very good point. I have suggestions for features, add an option to change subtitle font, add or remove the subtitle "shadow", color of subtitle, ability to change direction of subtitle, add option to "resume" a video, and not play from the first frame.

I really like mpv on Android, but the file browser could be improved. Currently, it shows every folder, including folders containing only PDFs, documents, images, or other non-media files. Please add an option like “Show only folders containing media files”, so folders with at least one supported video/audio file are shown while irrelevant folders are hidden. It would also be useful to remember the last browsing location. These improvements would make navigating large storage much easier.
