Ratings and reviews

Functions, but I feel its missing many features that are in the default media player that came with my phone. Things such as tapping to fast forward, and the ability to rotate video without changing system portrait mode setting. There may be a benefit to using this app while using the base USB mounting application (ML USB Mounter)

Works Great. I hooked a hard drive up to my android device. Only issue I found was that you can't choose alternate subtitles or soundtracks. Not many options there.

As is the case with the entire ML series of android apps - unparalleled functionality and usefulness. Worth every dime. Lets you mount a number of image formats.
