Lua Player – The Freedom to Watch, Listen & Do More

Looking for a media player that doesn’t lock you down?

• Lua Player is your all-in-one floating media player, designed for real multitasking freedom.

• Whether you’re watching a video while chatting, listening to music while browsing, or streaming from your network storage, Lua Player keeps your entertainment front and center—without interrupting what you’re doing.

Why Lua Player Stands Out

• True Picture-in-Picture Multitasking – Play videos or music in a floating, resizable window while using other apps.

• All-in-One Playback – Supports most video and audio formats, plus multiple subtitle types and online subtitle search.

• Flexible Streaming – Play from local storage, microSD, network drives (SMB), or a variety of streaming protocols.

• Seamless Controls – Adjust playback speed, brightness, and volume with simple gestures.

Key Features

1. Multitasking & Floating Window

• Move and resize the player anywhere on screen.

• Launch directly from file managers into popup mode.

• Continue watching while gaming, browsing, or messaging.

2. High-Quality Playback

• Smooth HD video support, including 720p and 1080p (hardware/software decoder dependent).

• Crystal-clear audio with multi-track selection.

3. Custom Viewing Experience

• Hide the popup window without stopping playback, or run in the background.

• Control playback speed from 0.3x to 2.0x.

• Capture screenshots and rotate the screen during playback.

4. Robust Media Support

• Wide range of codecs: H.264, H.265, MPEG4, MP3, AAC, FLAC, and more.

• Subtitle support for SRT, ASS, SMI, and other formats, including Unicode.

• Auto-detection of videos on device and SD card.

5. Network & Streaming

6. Smart Library Management

• Easily add or remove favourites from local files or streaming URLs.

• Search video or audio by keywords in your library.

Designed for Everyday Use

• Lua Player is built for convenience—pausing automatically for calls, preventing sleep during playback, and allowing you to resize and move the player with ease.

• It’s a tool for people who want their entertainment to work around them, not the other way around.

FAQ

Q: How does the floating window feature improve my media experience?

A: The floating window allows your video or music playback to stay visible and accessible while you multitask. You can move or resize the window anywhere on your screen, so you might watch a tutorial while coding, stream a show while chatting with friends, or listen to music while browsing the web—all without interruption.

Q: Does Lua Player support picture-in-picture multitasking for any type of content?

A: Yes, Lua Player supports true picture-in-picture multitasking for both video and audio content. Whether the source is local storage, a network drive, or a streaming URL, you can keep your playback active while doing something else on your device.

Q: Can I stream media from my network storage or online sources?

A: Absolutely. Lua Player can play files directly from local storage, microSD cards, shared network drives using SMB/CIFS, and via streaming protocols such as HTTP, RTSP, RTMP, MMS, and HLS (m3u8). This means you can enjoy media stored almost anywhere without needing to copy it to your device.
