HI there,
For the last year I have been using the Sony Video Player (Android) on my 2 Sony TV's as well as older WDTV units in other areas. I have been looking to upgrade my WDTV's and have since purchased an NVidea Shield (2017)
Since upgrading the firmware on my Sony TV's, the video player no longer worked. I have since searched for a video player for my TV's that is 1 - easy to use and 2 - Looks nice.
After trying at least 8 different apps, I must say that the NOVA Video Player is the best one. Until JRiver for Android comes out I highly recommend trying out this program.
One note, however, I found what appears to be a bug that in fact affected several of the programs. Several directories would not display and were causing errors. After much frustration I discovered that it had to do with subtitle files. I removed all .sub, .srt, and .IDX files and the problem resolved itself. I have not tested further to see which type of file was in fact causing the problem.
Hope this mini review is helpful
Dave
