Android Media Player issue

Yes.
Install a different media player such as VLC from the play store
 
Take a look at the Settings menu of the app, if there's an option there to change the interface to work the way you want than change it. If the app can't be altered to suit your preferences however, either accept it as a given or do what @Dannydet suggested, install a media player app that's more flexible. Most third-party alternatives tend to have a lot more features, support more media file types, and include more user-tweakable options anyway.
 
Thanks, I am developer and we have a huge project, which has already used Android Media Player. This is real problem for me to change player. I want to ask for help to CORRECT THIS ISSUE FOR ANDROID NATIVE MEDIA PLAYER. Please help me to fix this issue connected with Android MediaPlayer last screen keeping.
 
In that case, you have to contact the developers of the app. It's not Open Source so you still won't have access to the source code to alter things the way you want but if you're specific about what you need they might accommodate you in some way.
(Just my opinion but basing your own project on top of a closed-source, proprietary app is at best a short-term solution. This takes away a lot of control over your own project's future prospects. There's also licensing issues to take into account.)
 
Which 'Android media player' are we working with here? The Google one, like you find on a Nexus, Pixel or A1 device, or some other manufacturer's one, e.g. Samsung, which you find on their Galaxy series phones and tablets, or Oppo or Vivo etc? Because many manufacturers do like to do their own things when it comes to playing multimedia on Android.

The Device is K1 Plus TV Box and Android version is 5.1. Maybe there is a solution connected with this issue.

One of these is it?

Shipped from China, unknown manufacturer. I think contacting the developers in China of the proprietary "Android media player" it uses maybe pretty much impossible, and therefore unmodifiable or unfixable . If you're doing a project based around whatever proprietary thing it uses, quite frankly I think your solution would be to start over, that's it. Maybe look into using VLC or Kodi, both of which are Open Source software and can possibly be modified to do what you require.

Another thing because of very nature of these cheapo Android TV boxes, a particular one like the "K1 Plus" may only be available for a few months from GearBest or whatever, and whatever comes after may have completely different media player service in it, so if you're doing a "huge project" or product that only works with a particular one like "K1 Plus", you could be stuck. EDIT I just checked it again and GearBest does list the "K1 Plus" as discontinued. ...good luck!

This issue connected with Android 5.1 :) not for device specific

Oh it very much is device specific, namely this "Android media player" of which you speak. I've never had any Android device with something called that on it. And any enquiries about it would have to be addressed to an unknown manufacturer in ShenZhen, China....Good luck!

Sure, Google makes Android as an Open Source Operating System, but device manufacturers are free to modify and add pretty much whatever they like to it, including their own proprietary media players, such as apparently what's in this "K1 Plus" device
