and the
File.Exists("//mnt/external_sd","2013.mp4")
File.Exists("//mnt/external_sd","2013.avi")

There is no file named "*.mp4"...
Willdcards can not be used...

Use File.ListFiles if you want to get the list of files in this folder.

Maybe this is of Help: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/t...-get-list-of-files-using-wildcards-iii.44922/
