MX Player for Android (Older version preferably, before sellout, if you can find). So much better than VLC.

Try Nova video player

Pro version of MX Player isn't plagued with ads and ott stuff.

Oh! Is it? Didn't try Pro version.

[–] punseye@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Yes, been using the Pro version for years now, super clean, adfree and simple.
