BackG Media Player

Background Media Player for Audio and Video played with screen off

This player does 4 things other media players don't do:

1) It plays either audio or video files in the background. Allowing you to play another audio or video file over the top with your main audio player. So, its good for playing background music to audio books, language learning programs and other spoken word material. If you exit the program it will stop playing. You escape and go to another program without exiting.

2) It allows you to adjust the audio volume independently of the main audio volume so that the main volume can control the spoken word material. This allows mixing.

3) It allows you to turn off your screen when playing video so you can play it just for the sound. Do you really want to burn up your battery to stare at the album cover? I often just want to listen to music videos or documentaries, why use up the battery if you aren't looking at the screen? Especially at night, I don't want the screen on!

4) It allows you to access any location on your device. Many players allow access only to the media folders. That can be really inconvenient.
