I agree, the colors are a bit obtrusive. But in general I find the gradient quite helpful as it gives you some kind of feedback where you are in the list - if you have more than one screen of files

Anyway, the next version will have darker colors that won't hurt your eyes :-D

This is because I have various folders for my videos. (Music videos, tv shows, movies, animation etc)
Then choose the video file from the right. (just like Petrovich)
(But on the bottom of that file, showing the remaining time, video size etc.)
Once you click on the video, it'll display a menu to Play / Resume
I think the interface of Petrovich is really nice for its use case, but I believe most people only have a handful of videos on their mobile phone. Having a full blown file browser would be overkill, IMHO.
