DS video user reviews :

I will give it 5 stars when I can control music from drop down notification center.

This has the makings of a great app. However, currently there are a cpuple or strange thongs (some serie episodes me targetted as full series) that lower the value. Keeping an eye on this one

Now it actually plays the movies :-) Still some issues with the indexing and pretty bad “hit rate”. I have to edit a lot of movie info… sigh.
