Offline media player

[Veep Peep 13]

Hello,

 

I have a patriout media player.  What I like most about it is, it's offline.  I can play media by plugging in a USB stick of material.  I don't want something streaming or net connected.  Handy for traveling too where there is no internet (lo bandwidth or none)

It looks like a Roku does not have this ability and Patriot is no longer is business... Hoping to see an updated version...

 

Thoughts?

Use VLC and disable network access with a firewall. Problem solved. It works equally well on Linux as it does on Windows.
