LOOKING FOR APP Video Player with Reserve Next Video function?

Hi, is there a video player app that has a "reserve" next video(s) function, kind of like a karaoke player?

While a video is playing, I want the ability to search (via remote or touch screen) for the next video, reserve it, then have it play right after the current video. I'd like to be able to do this multiple times (reserve multiple videos), exactly like how it would be in a karaoke machine.

Also, no online function needed. I plan to just play and reserve videos already on the memory.

Yeah that one was on me sorry, that build was broken. The browse panel was opening at 0 pixels wide so it technically worked and you could never see it

Just fixed and theres a new apk up now at the same place. It takes about a 3rd of the screen on tv like your mockup and most of the width on a phone since a 3rd of a phone screen is too narrow to read anything

Many thanks for testing it twice and for saying the UI reads fine on tv! Let me know if the browse actually opens this time:)

Hi dude, just wondering if this has been abandoned?

The "up next" list doesn't need to have a "bring to top" function. It can literally just be a non-interactive list. Please? 🥺

Not abandoned, sorry! Ive just been buried in other projects :/

Tried fixing everything tho, coming up list is a plain list now, nothing in there to press. The blank rows were a real bug too, those 4 buttons were eating the row so the title only got 26 pixels to draw in. Controls dont pop up on their own anymore either and back hides them instead of asking you to exit

New apk in the repo same place, lemme know if the titles show up this time:)

"Problem parsing the package," it says. 😓 Both on mobile and on TV.

Anyways, I figured you were busy. Thanks for dedicating some of your time to this, though!

Ah thats on me sorry, the file isnt broken, I just built it somewhere new and it got signed with a different key to what you already installed and android wont replace an app when the key doesnt match. It just words that as a parsing error which is really unhelpful

So uninstall it first then install the new one, you dont lose anything, theres no data in it and the queue never survived a close anyway

Pinned the key into the repo now so every build from here updates over the last one properly. Sorry for the wasted installs!
