I built a video player for Android that connects directly to your NAS or home server and plays videos without downloading. What it does: Browse and stream from SMB, SFTP, FTP, WebDAV mpv engine with hardware-accelerated decoding for H.264, H.265 (HEVC), VP9, and AV1 — per-codec HW/SW decoder control Auto subtitle encoding detection Gesture controls for seek, volume, brightness Background playback with media session notification
