how to view web video in media player instead of browser Playing media inside the browser is terrible. Until recently when I found a video I wanted to watch on a web page, I would send it to the app Downloader by Mirmay, because it would allow me to play it in whatever media player I like (mx, vlc, whatever). Following a recent update, Downloader now forces you to use it's built-in, terrible media player.

What's the best way to get web video into a decent media player?
Just download it with your Downloader and then use a File Explorer and search for that file.
It should be anywhere inside either:


Your usual Movies folder (very unlikely, though) or `Downloads'  folder (also unlikely, but possible)
A unique, created folder by the app itself (many downloaders do that)
The "external data" folder (Android/data/&lt;package name of the app&gt;) on your internal storage
A configured folder (some Downloader apps allow user preferences).


First look inside the settings, then try to find it on your phone's storage.
After that, just tap it and Android will ask you which app you'd like to open it with.
