    VLC is awesome. Rcently started getting frequent updates too.

    MPV is another nice one. Tried it out recently. The user script option seems very cool: SkipSilence, SkipChapters etc.

    VLC for vids and audio I want to watch normally and MPV for ones where I want SkipSilence(Got used to that feature thanks to Newpipe and Pipepipe)

      Off topic slightly but for music VLC for Android is even better compared to its desktop sibling for the same purpose. I mean VLC for desktop will play anything and I dont deny how powerfull it is but afaik:

      • it doesnt rescan automaticaly for added and removed music like a watchfolder.
      • No native dark mode yet, yes a ton of dark mode themes, but they all are geared to video and lacking the medialibrary with album browsing.

      Bit indeed for Android its super.
