Tested yesterday have to report same behaviour as the first beta, app simply stop the playback and it returns to media list after 10 ~ 18 minutes; was watching simpsons and it suddenly stop the reproduction out of nowhere, then I play it again it too a bit longer then load from the beginning since i have the Db on it should return where it left.. I'm not sure if this has something to do with my external hdd being stupid or not, (maybe turning off itself?) I'll try again with the media on switch next time just to make sure, but, my girl did watched some stuff last week and it was causing the same issue with this beta version. I'll let you know.

Suggestion: search for time stamp specific time.
Example: a shortcut that allow us to type where to go, sometimes, nxmp 'won't' record .mkv long movies, I'd like to simple press i.e L3+R3 > time pop-up appears (pausing the video) and I'd type > 23:45 > go.

is there a way to use NXMP where the joy cons are not needed? Right now I need the joy cons to go back, fast forward, reverse and lock. Would be great if all can be done with on screen controls. I like it for watching videos on the go and not requiring them makes it so much more portable.
 
I know you don't have much leverage on this as you don't manage the dependencies, but it would be nice to see updated MPV and FFMPEG builds to a more recent version.
 
Hello. An old friend of mine got a v1 Switch (unpatched) yesterday for his family, but says he cannot create ANY playlist with NXMP without the app shutting down because "a fatal error occured" and kicks him out to the Switch's main menu. (Well, he DOES have CFW, but NO PIRATED GAMES.) He want to watch the loads of video files containing the footage of the wedding of his godmother in Venice, Italy. Yup, for some reason, instead of ONE big video, it was split in several files...meh... I'm asking for him due to the fact that he got nasty threats and even got called "that trademarked South Park word" before being banned somewhere else... he was banned for being a Jew...so he no longer creates accounts on other websites.
 
Hi! Could you add support for DVD-Video?

There's a new lib which adds support for DVD-BD usb drives:

P

Homebrew  Thread 'libusbdvd'

libusbdvd is a c++ library for HorizonOS supporting CD/DVD/BD Drives.

Current support:

  • USB-DVD USB-BD Drives with USB MASS STORAGE SUBCLASS 0x02
  • File Image mount (.iso)
  • CD/DVD/BD Support
  • CD Audio
  • ISO9660 with Joliet and basic RockRidge support
  • UDF support up to 2.60
  • DVD CSS support (with cache)
TODO List:
  • AACS Algo
  • There is always something to do

There is also a test program that show info and list root directory of disc (you can use it to check if your drive is compatible)

Current version : 0.1.0...

I win against CSS, transparent descramble of titles.
libusbdvd now can read CSS Video DVD

Sample videos
DVD is a commercial DVD

One NXMP is with and one NXMP is without CSS

Ported libdvdnav ad libdvdread (libdvdcss is mot needed since libusbdvd does all descramble itself) so i can have a good dvd video parsing, mpv is a bit limited for dvd menus but for a first try if it display main title correctly should be fine.

A dedicated DVD player app is on the way (with just what is needed for dvd playback) and for the future maybe Blu-ray.

It was hard to find good docs, it was not that easy looking at sources that ofter uses many os dependant code to deal with just to figure out the right way for making stuff work.

Probably there isn’t the need for this lib/apps devel, but i hope you all enjoy this effort.

Working, preparing interface (icons and so on). take some time. But DVD playback is ok
