[Feature Request] Add a field "last playback position" to media list options
"Resume/last played point" in the sense of the HH:MM:SS where you left watching the video (I prefer the term "resume/last played time", but, well, you already name "played time" to a different thing...). You have this info, obviously, because you resume the videos from that point, so it is strange that you don't show it (and should, therefore, be trivial to implement ).
The best way to show this info should be the standard: "resume/last played point"/total length (you already show the total length over the thumbnail. If there is not enough space besides it, I think that a suitable place would be to move all that info to below the video name).
As a bonus point, you could update the thumbnail to reflect the "resume/last played point". Other players (MoliPlayer for IOS) do it and it is very cool.

Right now, if you long press on a video and view the properties, it will show last playback position.
To simplify your feature request, what you are really asking is "on the media list, add a field called "last playback position" to the view menu options".
The second thing you requested is "update the thumbnail to reflect last playback position".

[Feature request] Video Play List

Hi,
I would like to request for a play list feature.
Problem context:
I have a whole list of video files (+50 videos and counting) stored within a folder for a certain topic.
But I only wish to play certain videos for certain sessions of my meeting with my friends - planning ahead. However, as they are not sorted according to their file names, currently it's very hard to jump here and there. I have to stop a video, search for another video, then continue the playback.
Or I may wish to play certain videos for my kids from within another folder or a combination of folders.
My wish:
To be able to create multiple video playlist for different purposes.
That I can select a video, choose "add to a play list", select which play list from the ones I've created or add to (i.e. create) a new playlist.
Thank you for your considerations.
Regards.
This feature request already exists in the feature requests list, under high priority #8.
This feature is still missing on the latest mx player, I could not create a plylist
A VERY needed and basic feature indeed!
The player sees the m3u file but does not play the contents.

[Feature request] Change Title and Time playing text size

Hi,
Can you please consider adding an option to change the text size for two items - the title name display and the time elapsed/total time?
If it is easier to just create a single "Large" option selection that would be great too, rather than infinitely variable.
Perhaps the option can move the time fields into the area just above where they are now - for larger time text.
My family members love to listen to music with MX Player on the smart TV and with poor vision it is difficult to read the title and the times.
They select the titles using a web browser with very large text from the HTTP server on the computer - and that launches MX Player
I've attached an image of the TV playing music, with the three areas highlighted - sorry about the lousy color reproduction and image as my phone is not so good at this. The background is pure red.
Thank you for reading - and thanks for MX Player.

[Bug] "Album Artist" issues and other feedback

Let me preface this by saying I like Encore a lot, especially the interface. There are unfortunately some issues which prevent me from using it as my primary music player. Hope you don't mind this feedback, I would like this app to replace Google Play Music.
"Album Artist" tag
Files using the "Album Artist" tag have a couple of issue. I'll be using Daft Punk's "Random Access Memories" in this example, which has 6 out of 13 tracks featuring other artists. These tracks are tagged as followed (encoded in Vorbis, .ogg):
[ARTIST] "Daft Punk feat. ARTIST"
[ALBUMARTIST] "Daft Punk"
[ALBUM] "Random Access Memories"
Issue #1, Artist Tab: All featured artists get listed, making it cluttered. A possible solution would be a separate "Album Artist" tab, or a toggle within settings to ignore featured artists. (Attachment #1)
Issue #2, Album View: Doesn't display tracks from featured artists, so 6 out of 13 are missing, these DO have the same album tag. (Attachment #2)
Issue #3, Artist View: Clicking on a featured artist doesn't display any tracks, even though they CAN be found under "All Songs". Maybe because the album has already been populated elsewhere? (Attachment #3)
Interface
- (All Songs) The scrollbar overlaps the menu icon next to a song, making it impossible to select. You press the scrollbar instead and move list to another position.
- (All Songs) Either takes a long time to populate or doesn't at all.
- (Album View) Albums containing multiple discs are currently displayed using one large list, would be nice to have each disc separated by a header ("Disc #").
- Whilst grabbing the scrollbar display the letter currently on.
Playback
- Playback of .ogg with a high sample rate (i.e. 96 kHz) either makes the app crash or causes audio glitches. This works fine in Google Play Music.

[BUG] Albums with multiple artists are only displaying one song.

So after downloading this and firing it up I ran into this bug almost immediately which sadly makes the app near unusable for me.
You see I listen to a lot of music which does not have one universal album artist. Instead thee are multiple artists per album (basically a compilation album)
The problem arises when I want to open an album. Instead of getting all the tracks in an album and having the artist name underneath each track only 1 song gets displayed for each album which is usually either the first or last track.
It isn't like the songs are split into different albums either (although that would be probably worse so please don't so that if you work on fixing this). They are just completely absent from the album section.
It seems the grouping criteria involves the folder and ARTIST to be the same in order for something to get grouped as an album which isn't ideal for someone like me who listens to mostly compilation albums.
What might be a good solution is implementing a feature I have seen in another music player called rocket player. With rocket player you can actually select how you want albums grouped. For example I have it set so that songs which are in the same folder and are listed as being from the same album are grouped under one album. The artist tag doesn't actually come into play in this way which stops this issue with the sorting from actually happening.
I really do hope this gets fixed soon as for me it is a major drawback which makes the app almost unusable. At the very least implementing an option so the user can set how albums are grouped would be ideal.
I have attached some screenshots showing this issue below. (I have also attached a screenshot of what the album should look like when seen from another music player as well as a screenshot of that album grouping feature I talked about with rocket player)
Attachment Key:
First Image is what I see in Encore
Second and third image is what I was supposed to see (I.E those are all the songs that should be displaying)
Fourth image shows the Album grouping feature from rocket player

Subtitles sync

ok, this is my idea to sync subtitles - based on solution in AllPlayer:
I pause movie in position when should be text, open window with all subtitles, chose one and press button "This Text in This Position" - this solution is from AllPlayer.
Second, optional part if subtitles have diffrent framerate:
Go to some part at end of movie, pause, and set second text for this moment like above. MX Palyer based on this two point calculate new positions for every text
