Kindly read the instructions on second post. You can find yourself. There is no need of third party apps to analyse the cpu features. It's mentioned there in MX Player itself.

Looking for codec for 1.7.37, v1.7.32rev1 doesn't work.
[MX Player] DJ_Casper:
MX Player was updated to 1.8.9. Anyone tested AIO Pack for compatibility with it?
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Just read the 3rd Post.

Required custom codec version is forced by MX Player itself. If you are not getting any messages then you are using the required version. So, No need to worry about until or unless MX Player automatically unloads & shows the warning.

Direct answer is Yes custom codec v1. 8.6 is fully compatible with 1.8.9.
[MX Player] aavvaallooss:
Does not work for me (No audio)

Update: It worked after reboot
[MX Player] johnjuu:
After uninstall 1.8.8 in Android OPPO F1 Plus

I can try to install 1.8.9 but it show error

Now I am trying to install back 1.8.8 but device show error and convince to go play store for pro version

Solution?
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
What Kind of error?

Can you shard the screenshot?

I have MX Player 1.8.9 both free and pro on 4 devices. But, Everything works as expected here.
[MX Player] vdbhb59:
Thanks a lot for these. However, I need the 1.8.9B3 file. The MKV in 1.8.9B1 gives error, and is asynced to video.
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
In which decoder you are playing?

Can you share the screenshot of error.?

There is no change to ffmpeg since 1.8.6.

1.8.9 uses same ffmpeg which was used in 1.8 6.
[MX Player] vdbhb59:
I have reverted to 1.8.6 since I was getting for almost all X264 1080/720 MKV (the latest MKV3 versions), the same video async. Sorry, do not have the screen. :(

Yes, I know the 1.8.6 ffmpeg is same, and I am playing with HW decoder.
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
HW decoder uses mediaplayer api provided by android. This less likely to happen.

Can you collect the bugreport (from 1.8.9) [Menu >> Help >> Bug Report] immediately after playing the video that has issue & share here. It will be helpful in analyzing the issue. It will be better if you can provide a link to the video....!
[MX Player] vdbhb59:
1. The videos I am trying to play have been downloaded from different sites and I do not have the links. Sorry again :(

2. I am attaching one screen which shows another trouble (though the screen is for 1.8.8, this same trouble was in 1.8.9B1), when it took more then 5-10 seconds to play a video.

3. I am trying to get a bug for 1.8.8 (at least for the time being), which may be able to give the same log for 1.8.9B1. (I have asked a fellow member to run the report for me). Hopefully he will be able to give it to me.

Update: Attaching the logcat for 1.8.8 for I9082.

Update: Logcat II Attached.

This is what the friend wrote when he uploaded the second log cat::

""It gets faster (opening time gets reduced if I keep on opening and closing the same file repeatedly)..

When I open a new video or when someone sends me a video on.. for example say whatsapp if I click on that it usually takes me 5-10 secs delay to play it..""

Hope this helps. [MENTION=4258555]ktsamy[/MENTION]
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Regarding #2, do you get blank white list screen till the video starts (Based upon your statement, for 5-10sec)...?

If you can reproduce it again, just wait. Once the video starts just go to Menu >> Help >> Bug Report. Save the logs & share here.

Regarding async issue, can't you reproduce the issue? Is it from another user?
[MX Player] vdbhb59:
Regarding lag, it does not lag always, but more over when X264 MKV/AVI is played. And that too on the newer or very old codec files.

Async is yes from another user.

As I stated 1.8.8 for both.

My phone has gone dead (hardware broken), hence am unable to provide any logs of my own. :(
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Since I can't reproduce those issues, Without logs it's very difficult to identify the issue... [emoji53]

Can you provide the details of your device...?

I will ask the developer to check it himself if he has that particular device..!
[MX Player] vdbhb59:
I have already uploaded the LogCat in the post wherein I gave the Lag SS.

Mine is the same device, just that I am running CM12.1 (Jan)(PawitP) ROM for Grand Duos I9082.

I have asked him to rerun the log cat as you requested, as soon as he gives me the log, I will upload here.

Hope that will help as well apart from the earlier logcat I posted few posts back.

BTW, out of curiosity, what was the Beta Release Number for date 25-Sep-2016?

AFAIK, B3 was released on 27-Sep-2016, right?

So 25-Sep should e=be B2, because B1 was released on 21-Sep-2016.

Right?
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Based on the logs, it looks like scanning your external sdcard took so much time. Can you remove your sdcard & let me the effect ?

BTW, latest beta of 1.8.9 should work since lot of optimization was done to improve app launching speed. So, it may behave better than 1.8.8. Can you check it out & let me know the results.?

[MENTION=4258555]ktsamy[/MENTION] thank you for your contribution. Slightly out of topic.. Since last 2-3 updates, i notice that when i enable background play for videos and go home (press home button), i have a sound playback pause and delay of like 3-4 secs. it was because of this that i browsed for a codec thinking it would solve it and came across your thread!. My Mx player version is 1.8.9 and i just loaded your arm7neon codec but its still the same. i still have this pause.. anybody knows why? would appreciate some help on this please.

[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
It's usual that it will pause for moment. But, if it's taking longer than usual, Kindly try other decoders & let me know the results.

If it's possible just switch to background. If there is a unusual delay, then just back to player immediately & goto menu >> help >> bug report. Save it & share here. It will be helpful in resolving the problem.

Codec for non-phone device

Dear everyone,

I've been using a Probox2 Ex Plus streamer which runs android 5.1.1

According to this thread, in order to restore the AC3 capability to the player, I need to download a codec straight from the app store based on the CPU of the device.

That where I got lost: the cpu is "Amlogic S812 Quad Core Cortex A9 CPU".

Which codec version should I use?

Thanks in advance,

A.
[MX Player] asimali700:
Thanks

Works great
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Kindly read the instructions carefully. The codec required for your devive is mentioned in MX Player itself (Settings > Decoder > Custom Codec.)
[MX Player] Wormer:
Lifesaver!

Thanks!

I thought it said that it was the codec it "uses". Now i've stumbled at another thing to which I can't seem to find an explanation. I've installed the above mentioned codec from the playstore and still no sound. Do I need to activate/install the codec somehow? All of the instructions I seem to find are for the manually downloaded zip file :(.

Thanks again!

A
[MX Player] Sid32:
Go to the first page here and grab the codecs from there.
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Probably you haven't understand the concept of Custom Codec. MX Player official codec packs has many important libraries required to run MX Player. If you install MX Player from Google Play it will mostly come up with required codecs. So, there is no need to install any additional codec packs from Google Play in most of the modern device.

Custom Codec is the modified version of ffmpeg library of MX Player Codec Packs. It's required only if you want to add dolby (ac3) or DTS support.

Kindly note that MX Player codec packs have some more additional libraries other than ffmpeg. If it's asked by MX Player you must install it from Google Play even if you want to use custom codec.

Don't confuse yourself with Play Store Codec Packs and Custom Codecs.

[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
What's the error you are getting?

Just few posts before I have posted a screenshot about how to identify the right codec. You may need ArmV7 NEON custom codec.

Regarding media detection, mp3 is audio fotmat. If you want to use MX Player as audio player goto MX Player Settings > Audio & enable Audio Player. Now MX Player will detect Audio files as well.

THX in advance.

[MX Player] Ch3vr0n:
Then there is no custom 1.8.9. the play store one is a normal one. Custom one may follow a different version numbering
[MX Player] ettore88:
Hi.If I understood...on 1.8.9... can i use Custom Codec v1.8.6 ?Right?;)
[MX Player] Ch3vr0n:
I don't know, I'm not the creator. And they're 2 different ones. Custom has DTS support, the other one doesn't.
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Just read of the 3rd post to know why the version number is different from MX Player version number. That's why I have mentioned custom codec is for MX Player 1.8.6+ (i.e 1.8.6 and above).

MX Player won't load the custom codec if it's outdated. So, no need to worry about it as long as MX Player loads it. Even Checking this thread is unnecessary after each update. MX Player itself will give you a warning about incompatibility when update is required. Then only you have to update.
[MX Player] Onurhonor:
I need hw+ codec with passthrough

Hello everyone,

I use an android tv box and my problem is not to get passthrough while using hw+ codec. I can get it with hw but hw is not good enough in terms of picture quality, hw+ works much better. Does this custom codec Get it done? Many thanks.
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
No. Passthrough is something different. When you use custom codec the audio will be downmixed to stereo.

BTW, according to my recent conversation with the developer, audio pass through is in development. Probably next update may bring it.

Many thanks for your reply and great news. I hope it is going to come soon, will be waiting impatiently.

[MX Player] samxool:
can i ask a real noob question.

I have the xperia z, so obviously i have been downloading the custom codec from page 1 of this thread.

i have 2 questions;

1) Every time the MX player app gets an update, do i need to update the codec or will i be told somewhere, either in the app or in the Play store description for MX that i need to update the codec?

2) whats the difference between the ARMv7 NEON codec on page one of this thread, and the ARMv7 NEON codec available in the Play store?

If they are the same, how come MX player doesn't link to this app? and if they are the same, surely it would be easier to update the codec via app updates via the Play store?

or is it actually something different?

thanks,

[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Do they still exists?

I thought that they are obsolete now.

Most of the pre Arm7 devices had very limited internal storage (few hundred MB) & vey slow CPU. It will simply fill without installing an app.

Anyway, FYI

The 1.7.x Custom Codecs are not removed. They can be still downloaded from Downloads tab on this thread. I have just deleted the links to avoid confusion since almost all existing devices with ICS & above can now use 1.8.10.

There is no reason to support it. Use 1.7.40 if you are on pre ics device. Else use 1.8.10.
[MX Player] sPaCeMoNk3yIam:
Where can i find v. 1.8.10? I also tried using the codec app to no success. MX Player doesn't seem to recognize it. Is that a common problem? Where do I point the custom codec folder to, if i installed the codec app from google play instead of downloading the app from here?
[MX Player] JFK1975:
There is no need to install a codec until MX player tells you to. For the non pro version its still version 1.8.6 from 1st page here :svetius: standard. Please read at least two first pages here!

As far as I know codec apk from play store is only for pro version. Its the same as said before, codec has to be installed only when MX player tells you to .

[MENTION=4258555]ktsamy[/MENTION] you seem to have good contact with the MX Player devs..

I sent an email on 11-11-2016 to their support address regarding a regression in 1.8.10 but never received a response:

Playing the Global TV Halifax stream worked before the 1.8.10 update, but now does not.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Play -> Network Stream: http://link.theplatform.com/s/dtjsEC/77l1KA_G_5P1​

I was just hoping you might be able to put a bug in their ear if they've ignored/forgotten it. Thanks for any help you can provide. :fingers-crossed:
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
I apologize on behalf of the developer. But, the fact is that he gets some 100s of mails. But, only few of them are bug reports with description. Many bug reports are blank with just log files which makes the support through mail harder.

XDA forum is the preferred way of reporting bugs than mail. If it's a critical bug, it can be reported here.

I will try to solve the issue. Else I will personally report the issue to the developer.

Regarding the issue,

The content seems to be blocked by Geo location.

When I have tried to access I got the following on Firefox

{ "title": "Geographic Restriction", "description": "This content is not available in your location.", "isException": true, "exception": "GeoLocationBlocked", "responseCode": "403" }
[MX Player] osm0sis:
Thank you for the rapid and kind response! :)

That's too bad you can't test it personally as I'm sure that'd help in the process. It's a local TV station's live online stream so it makes sense they might geofence it. I could stream it on all versions before 1.8.10 if I recall correctly. My email in its entirety is up on pastebin for you here: http://pastebin.com/E6ZdSd55

and I've attached the logs from the email below. Hopefully you can figure something out. Let me know if there's anything else I can provide (logs from 1.8.6 or last working version, for example). :highfive:

Hmm definitely works on 1.7.39 since that's what I downgraded to on my Jelly Bean 4.3 TV box to get the link working again. I'll go back several versions on my N7 tonight to try and tell you exactly when it broke.
[MX Player] osm0sis:
Booted up Marshmallow in MultiROM and walked it forward from 1.7.39; it works up to and including on 1.8.3, then beginning with 1.8.4 it fails - just stays at the loading spinner. I could reliably go back and forth between those versions to reproduce the issue.

Does it work with any other players...?

In my tests none of the ffmpeg based players play the url. Even MX's SW doesn't work on 1.7.40-1.8.3. probably ffmpeg side issue.

I can confirm it's working on 1.7.40 & 1.8.3. But, only in HW mode which exclusively uses mediaplayer API. I am not sure what's changed on mediaplayer API calls from 1.8.4. I have intimated the issue to the developer.
[MX Player] osm0sis:
Thanks! I'm not sure? I've only ever tried it in Chrome and in MX Player. Any in particular I should test with that might help you guys to fix the regression in MX Player?
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Can you test whether it's working on HW+ or SW in 1.7.40 to 1.8.3?
[MX Player] osm0sis:
For me, on my Jelly Bean 4.3 TV box with 1.7.41 it only works on SW (HW+ doesn't work on that device, and HW doesn't work with the link).

On my Nexus 7 2013 running Marshmallow it works on SW and HW+, but not HW. And on my Nexus 7 2013 running Nougat it doesn't work at all, just "Can't play this link"; all with 1.8.3, but something's weird about that since nothing really shows in the decoder submenu in that version.
