Getting error "can't find custom codec"

I downloaded the package that brings all versions. I have a Galaxy S5 with Lineage 15.1 (Android 8.1). I thought the armv7 neon should be the one I need. But it doesn't work. Any ideas?

Edit- Never mind, changed the file location from 'Downloads' to 'root directory' and it worked.

I got it working, I downloaded another version of mx player same as codex.

Thanks
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
The dropbox link contains the codec for v1.7.17 while the OP contains the codec for v1.7.18.

v1.7.17 is still working with MXPlayer v1.7.18. But, it may contain bugs & performance lags.

So, Always try to use the codec according to the player version.

Note:

There is no MX Player 8.82.

Latest MX Player version is v1.7.18.

Don't get sideloaded. Since there is no v8.82, It maybe a spyware.

Corrupt file?

Hye there, I was wondering, I can download the latest file, but when I try to unzip it, it says that the file is corrupt so I can't open it, am I doing something wrong or is the file corrupt, I tried the neon version for my nexus 4

never mind, downloaded it from my pc and it works now

thnx for the great work
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
It seems that the downloaded file is corrupted.
[MX Player] desean:
use copy.com (yes, that is my referal link so extra 5GB for you and me :D)

although they never officially state that they support direct linking but they do support it. just add a ?download=1 to the end of your download link to create a direct link. for example:

your download link is: https://copy.com/9WAp9cxODmxO

this will be your direct link: https://copy.com/9WAp9cxODmxO?download=1

Cheers!

Is there any way to keep the video playing while winding/rewinding (sliding the bar) in mx player pro? Because as it is now u can only "guess" after time! Does it have to do with the the player is decoding? I mostly play .mkv files.

I noticed with the latest MX Player and latest custom codec, there's sometimes a single line of pixels with wrong colors at the bottom of videos. It's quite annoying, especially with dark scenes. When I switch to software rendering, the line disappears. (On my PC in MPC-HC and VLC, all is fine.)

How to use fonts type .ttf in mx player pro ??
[MX Player] Czort666:
Hi.

Im waiting for htc u12+. Moved from note4. The question is... which codec shoud i download for snap845
[MX Player] Brds7t7:
You need the mx_neon.zip file.
[MX Player] Czort666:
Thx. As i see... same as note4
[MX Player] aussj4link:
I download mx_neon.zip. I put it in the downloads folder in my phone. I go to decoder/general to find it says ARMv7 NEON under Custom Codec. I tap it, and navigate to mx_neon.zip. I tap it. "Can't find custom codec. Please use version 1.9.18.2 ARMv7 NEON codec." I google "1.9.18.2 ARMv7 NEON codec". Top site is this one. This one tells me to use mx_neon.zip. WTF.exe I try apk for ARMv7 NEON, it installs. Does nothing. Still get "AC3 not supported" when trying to play video. Obvious troll app is obvious. I have tried this 6 times now. I have tried downloading the zip from other sites. I tried reinstalling MX Player. I tried extracting the codec file from the zip and selecting that. Nothing works. If I could post links here, I'd post a link to the screenshots I took of all this and how none of the instructions on this site or any other pertaining to this issue, works. Can anyone please point me in the direction of the real instructions and not whatever this is?

Actually, where is the 1.9.18.2 ARMv7 NEON zip? Obviously the app wants that, so why are we trying to force it to use something else? All I can find for that is the useless apk and does nothing.

Hello,I have GT1 Ultimate and I have installed MX Player Pro 1.9.24 on it and when I play a movie AC3 there is no audio.I have tried to instal custom codec mx_neon.zip from XDA but without success.What's the problem?Thanks
[MX Player] Sid32:
You don't install the codec. You download the zip file from here and on MX settings tell it where it is.
[MX Player] EPa:
I don't think you need the codec here for ac3. So your problem lies elsewhere.
[MX Player] sjlouis:
I use MXPlayer Pro on my phone and I have just installed it on an Android box. It works better than the stock player but I have to install the eac3 codec. My box have a CPU	Realtek RTD1295 ARM Cortex-A53 Quad-Core with floating-point unit and NEON SIMD engine embedded.

Is the ARMv7 NEON codec also the good one?

Thank you :) .
[MX Player] sjlouis:
Yes, it's the good one and I've seen (this time, not the previous times) MX Player propose this codec.

Well :) !
[MX Player] Spaine Lilang:
Thank you.

At first the codec didn't work for me. I downloaded it into the device's "Movie" folder just so I knew where it was located.

I've not read the rest of the posts in this thread.

But, to make it work, just paste the "libffmpeg.mx.so" file to the root of your internal SD card and it should work ;):p:o:):mad::angel::(

The developer told me this

Dear Marius,

Thank you for writing to MX.

Videos that you play on your device comes with different kinds of audio format. The AC3 audio format is currently not supported on our App. Hence, you see the error message. Request you to play content with some other audio format and you should not face any issues.

We hope this information helps. Looking forward to your continued support.

I'm wondering about the quality of the sound output of the DTS codec in this pack. When I listen to 48000 5.1 DTS audio being output to 3.5mm stereo on VLC on a KitKat 4.4.4 tablet using HW+, it seems to have more sparkle and range and noticeably increased vocal clarity. On MX Player it seems to be duller and slightly more muffled.

The codec does not appear in the list of HW+ audio codecs so I cannot check or uncheck anything there. Trying the 3 different audio output methods did not resolve it either.

Maybe the 5.1 to 2.0 downmixing performed by MX is not mixing right? I don't know.. but I'd like to figure out a way to get the audio to be an equivalent sound quality.

Whenever MX Player is updated, It will check the custom codec version loaded. If it's outdated it will show a error message that shows "Custom Codec is out of date. Replace it with the new version". Otherwise there is no need to check this thread for the new Custom Codecs.

So you don't need Version 1.10.50, because there is no such Version.

No video playback with any apps since custom codec has been loaded

Hi everybody.

I'm experiencing difficulties with MX Player and custom codec my Android 8 tablet.

I mainly play x265/DTS media.

To play DTS I loaded the latest custom codec.

Since it's been loaded no way to play any videos, here's what happens, randomly:

Playback doesn't start

Only audio is played

Video starts correctly but any actions taken (seek, background, etc.) playback stucks

In all cases interface becomes unresponsive in a few seconds, then Android prompts to kill unresponsive app in 30/60 seconds.

After this, all apps fail to play video till reboot.

Rolling back to standard codec doesn't fix.

I'm attaching logs.

No details whatsoever on device specs, so no clue if it even supports HW h265 decoding or whether the device has enough oomph to SW decode(likely not)? :rolleyes:
[MX Player] ultradj83:
Dear I'm really sorry.

I added logs and system info in the original post #2460.

I'm sure it can play H265, cause it's been working for weeks before I loaded custom codec to support DTS.

Right now, no formats can be played.

Looks not to be a decoder problem, but a render problem.

By the way, problem appeared loading custom codec.

Tks!

I am using Samsung Galaxy On5. I enjoyed VLC player with streaming that enable closed captioning (Not subtitle). MX Player doesn't have that. Can you add it please ? Many streaming apps required MX Player to download and doesn't have an option to changed to VLC Player. Can you kindly to add closed captioning to that ? I am deaf and MX Player is very curious program that I like but I prefer VLC Player due is that it supports closed captioning and subtitle (such as .srt .ssa and etc). You only support subtitle (such as .srt .ssa and etc). Please addition closed captioning because of my streaming apps have ABC news etc that are lacking to enable closed captioning. VLC does supporting it. You don't have that. Hope to hear from you soon.
