Can I control whether or not to use multi-window?

In Playstore, some apps have introduction videos. For example, Jump Desktop. When I pressed the play button, multi-window was activated and the video was played on the right window. In this case, I would rather had the video being played full-screen. Can we do that without manually adjusting the size of the window?

Go to: Settings - Device - Multi window, and disable "Open in multiwindow view"
After that you can still use multi window, but those windows are not open automatically.

Also while in there you may want go to notification panel settings and make sure that the multi window toggle is in the quick settings panel rather than the available buttons section. That way you can toggle easily by bringing the notification shade down and panning left or right to find the toggle for times when you want to disable it altogether.
I usually keep the open in window on and use the toggle. I'm less annoyed by the feature i guess. I like it in play store when opening video samples of applications where while playing the developer's video I can read reviews or other info.

Sometimes I like to use the device in portrait mode. When I clicked on an introduction video from Play Store, a 2nd window was opened but the orientation of the video was in landscape mode. I had to rotate the device to watch the video. How come the video's orientation was not adjusted accordingly based on the orientation of the device?

Yeah there is no way to control that. I think the way samsung coded the launch action it doesn't check for orientation and adjust accordingly.

Is there a way to make suggestions to Samsung App developers?

[Q][Resolved] Can we move the picture up to the top of screen?

I suggest we add a feature to allow users to move the vedio picture to the top of the screen so that there won't be any black space on the top and subtitles can be displayed totally outside the picture in the lower black space. This is especially helpful when subtitles have two or more lines.
This feature can be found on desktop version of kmplayer, PotPlayer and a few other mainstream players.

If you are taking about bottom padding, it is not possible. But, moving the video is still possible. Goto Settings | Player | Touch Controls & enable Video pan
Now use two fingers together to move video screen in any direction.

Seems nice and lightweight, thank you.
Dark theme does not seem to affect the settings screen and mp3 tag editor though, which stay light.
Otherwise, nice
:good:

Is it possible to increase the size of the album art on the now playing screen? The rest of the UI is great but I like a more prominent image.
Also having the album art show in the status bar would be great too, is that possible? Maybe something like the attached pic

Showing the album art on the status bar isn't possible. But regarding the now playing screen, I'll add an option for some now playing screen styles. stay tuned

[FEATURE REQUEST] Rewind and fast forward the video for X amount of time

Hello,
Is it possible to add a feature like YouTube's double tap to fast forward/rewind the video. It doesn't necessarily have to a double tap, maybe it can be assigned to these buttons (www dot imgur dot com/a/WxqkR). Also as mentioned in the title it would be great to set the exact amount of time you want fast forward and rewind with 1 click. It would be useful to skip openings of various shows by simply double tapping or pressing a button.

But rewind and fast forward is already implemented. Swipe left/right and you will see.

I know, but usually the rewind/fast forward with swiping skips few seconds and doesn't start to play on the time you selected.

You can choose how many seconds you want to skip by swiping more or less.

I mean that it's not very precise, because the swiping is almost the same as moving the video player's slider, only that you can swipe anywhere on the screen. The idea I have in mind in my opinion is more convenient and stable than the swiping. It would be like in Youtube where you can move the video player slider (almost equivalent to swiping in MX player) or double tap to skip a set amount of time (equivalent to my idea).

Any plans on implementing the native android oreo picture in picture mode for mx player in the near feature? Considering its only a few lines of code and native to android now
