External File Access

[TheVortex]

On Android I can't play any external media that is attached via USB drives. It looks like BSplayer for Android doesn't have the All File Access or MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission for Android 13/14. Other apps like VLC do have this enabled and can read external storage.

Steps are: select 'Open from Storage' and browse the external media. But when I select a video to play, I receive the message "error opening file".

Can the devs add this in a future release?

Thanks.

Hi
you can fix with this

1)The latest version of BSplayer is in the form of split APKs.
So find the base.apk file and decompile it (with any program you like)

2) Then open the androidmanifest.xml file and add the following permission in the permissions section


<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.MANAGE_EXTERNAL_S TORAGE">
</uses-permission>

3) Compile and sign the apk and install it along with other bsplayer splits.

4) Go to settings and in the Special Access section, open the All files access section and enable access for BS Player.

If God wills, it will work [:
