Yeah I’ve been dealing with this issue since I came over from the other place last year. It’s incredibly annoying, and a number of times has made me rage-delete comments I’m trying to post. It happens to me every day, but I can usually find a server that works for a while by randomly switching a few times.
I use ProtonVPN.
NPlayer is really good in my experience. It works with the vast majority of files. It sometimes struggles, but anytime that happens VLC picks up the slack. It remembers where you left off in individual video files. It’s not on Fdroid, sorry about that, but there are Android and iOS versions.
I’m replaying Cyberpunk, so I thought you were asking about Braindances…
But to answer your question, Handbrake.
My replies do not necessarily imply an upvote, so if this ever gets implemented, please make it optional. (I did upvote this though, because it’s a cool idea to have as an option.)
