Android Marshmallow update, Video app still rubbish!!!

As per title really,

 

the video app app is still so amateurish

 

I think it's a waste of time.

 

this could have been much improved with sorting folders and showing full video names, video resolutions and length times.

 

is there a decent Video App in the store, NOT VLC as this is just alphabetical.

 

thanks in advance

 

kind regards,

 

Dan.

Or.. You could try Plex, which is a Client/Server, keep all your video in your media server (PC) as long as the tv and the media server are ON and connected in the same LAN. It doesn't play local videos, though.

 

You may give it a try, that app is spectacular. And it keeps improving.

hi

tried them all now

 

its a real shame the built in video app is so so so so terrible 

 

the only thing that really meets my needs is mx player

 

has full name of show, season, episode etc.

length of show im nims and seconds

and everything is in the folder i put it in seperating my movies & tv shows and subfolders  

 

but it crashes often 

 

wish i knew what the difference between this, mx player and mx player pro was
