This is the best app ever invented for android. Turn your old phone, any phone or android device into a wireless media server on its own private network and take it with you anywhere! It seems to run from a cold start of the app with fewer problems on my Galaxy S5 than my Galaxy S7, a simple restart of the server in the beginning fixes this. I've had this app run for days without any problems, fast forwarding almost always causes problems with some devices like a roku, resuming playback usually works. Host 4K HDR content on devices that don't even support the format. I am excited to try subtitle transcoding with the paid version, it's only thing I'm missing, subtitles do work on free version if they're encoded properly and the client sports it. Client device and in the app, I am able to browse files of a connected USB hard drive (USB OTG and Total Commander for NTFS) but the video simply refuses to play. USB sticks and SD cards work just fine. Phone can get a bit warm under sustained usage. Encountering some buffering issues with high bitrate HEVC, mostly due to suspect hardware.
★★☆☆☆
Was working just fine, until after a couple of hours my PS4 suddenly said "could not play media". The media still plays on my phone just fine. Both app and PS4 are up-to-date, restarted the PS4 and app multiple times and even uninstalled/reinstalled the app. No go. It was good while it lasted.
★★☆☆☆
This app is not reading my files and will not appear on my PS4
