Hi.

Unfortunately, it seem not running for my device.

I'm using a TV Box CS918 with Rockchip RK31.

I follow all the steps that you indicate (first method), MX Player loads correctly your codec but .avi files with AC3 audio don't play :(

In attach you find Mediainfo file containing information about this avi file.

If you need more info, please ask me.

Many thanks!
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Have enabled S/W audio?
[MX Player] leonegrigio:
Yes I did it, but I still receive the message "This audio format (AC3) is not supported"
[MX Player] priyam basak:
Have you install the custom codecs pack!???

Because AC3 audio is working perfectly here with android 5.1 stock rom.

No issues so far.
[MX Player] xyster13:
It worked

Thanks. I had troubles with AC3 codecs too on my Android 5.0.1. Now sound is playing! Thanks again!
[MX Player] MKamran:
I also had a problem with my MX player need update for my MX player.
[MX Player] MKamran:
Didn't got the AC3 Audio Codec.

Also my MX player is not playing of AC3 audio files.
[MX Player] Andrewtst:

Thank you so much! it work great on my htc one m8. Keep your great job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:good:
[MX Player] leonegrigio:
Yes, of course.

With NEON codec, I don't receive the AC3 error message, video start and I can hear the audio BUT video is not fluid, it goes joggling, and it's impossible to see it.

I have tried to use AIO codec too, but I have the same result :(

Wow, thanks so much for this! Switched to VLC as MX player wouldn´t support AC3 and some videos wouldn´t have sound. But VLC Player is much more lagging and not as smooth as MX Player, so i was never satisfied with that. Was reading about this custom codec pack and was giving a try, now everything works fine again with the best Android Videoplayer out there: MX Player. :good:

Hi I tried using the codecs from your downloads but I am getting error. While I am checking the zip file it shows "end of central directory signature not found". I tried all codecs and Arm v7-Neon codecs.. Both are not working... Please suggest

[MX Player] AeonXS:
This 1.7.32 codec thing restores the AC3 audio support but with FLAC audio the player goes haywire. When i played a Full 1080p mkv video with FLAC audio, with the first playback the video jumped to midway point, reduced audio from 10 to 3 automatically & also automatically took a screenshot. At the second time trying to play the same, it reduced the brightness automatically & again jumped to the midpoint. The 3rd time it jumped 5 or so seconds ahead but resumed normal playback.

Is it safe just to download the 1.7.37 version from the website APKField. Never used APKField before so please tell me if it is trustable & virus free.
[MX Player] AeonXS:
Please reply
[MX Player] osm0sis:
It's been said several times, the included codec hasn't changed in the newer MX Player versions since removal of AC3, so it stands to reason you're not going to fix your issue that way.

XT890 (Intel Atom Z2480 Medfield - SSE2/3 support) here.

Right now I am using the current DTS SS3 build (1.7.14), which works without a flaw with MX Player 1.7.15a. Thank you!

The SoC in my device supports SSE3 - therefore I guess, I chose the right one - but - and I hope my questions are not too off-topic:

Can you say as a rule of thumb:

"There are benefits (in terms of optimization) in choosing the highest device-supported instruction-set build".

- I'm asking this, because the player initially doesn't suggest the official SS2 build and automatically redirects me to the standard "x86" labeled codec.

edit:

My fault, sorry - seems the "standard x86" contains SS3 instructions...

So the only remaining question is:

Are there any known changes or is there a reason (maybe cosmetic?), why the official non-DTS builds have the version number 1.7.15a?

Thanks in advance for any input,

Cheers
[MX Player] hOtttBRA:
Working great the neon version with my Motorola Razr. Thanks!
[MX Player] Warnahly:
In my settings ,, MX says I need the neon version so I downloaded it and followed instruction and enabled h/w and s/w and yet I can't play HD movies always a lag in it ,, what should I do ?
[MX Player] kadopt:
If it lags it most likely means your device cpu is not fast enough to do software decoding of that video, not all videos are hardware decodable as well.
[MX Player] Warnahly:
I asked some guys on the note page in fb and they said its working fine
[MX Player] kadopt:
Although I have an s3 I can oc to 1.6ghz, can you provide a sample video?
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Enable H/W+ and try with it. It may help. If you still have any problem even with H/W+, then post your problem in mxplayer official google group support page.

[MX Player] Miami8906:
Weird I have Mx Player Pro and there is no option to download custom codec and it only lets you use an so file for a codec not a whole folder
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Which version you have installed?

In latest version download option is present in the bottom of the decoder settings.

But, It will redirect to the current thread.

Just download the zip file and unzip anywhere.

When it ask to select the codec just enter into the folder where you have extracted the all ".so" files. Just click OK button or any of the ".so" file. MX player will restart.

Just check in decoder page. If it's loaded then the path will be displayed below custom codec option.
[MX Player] Miami8906:
I have the latest version from the market. What do you mean any of the files don't you need them all?
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
It just need path to the folder.

Just click OK when your are inside the folder. Alternatively selecting the single "so" file will automatically load the other files.
[MX Player] Miami8906:
Does not work must be a S4:thing all it does is say cant play video

Edit: Finally got it to work had to uncheck all the hw options except the first one use hw+ decoder.
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Which version you are using?

It seems that you are using an old version. To use these codecs you player version should be 1.7.14+.

The latest version is 1.7.15a.

After disabling all H/W+ it will play using H/W. It doesn't need codec and it will not play dts.
[MX Player] Natakranta:
Works like a charm on my Galaxy Nexus.

Finally I can enjoj smooth HD video

with

audio.

One thing. Can I delete extracted files from the folder where they are now after player was updated with them?

Or do they need to stay there because player is using them always from this location?

Thanks!
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
No, you have to keep the files.
[MX Player] AeonXS:
I had installed mx player 1.7.37 which had ac3 support. It worked for a few days and one day while I was using the player it couldn't play ac3 sound. I was connected online via WiFi maybe mx player silently cacelled out ac3 for older versions too.
[MX Player] Dj_Fex:
I'm not sure whether the codec is able to decode DTS sound but ac3 should work just fine

but maybe your cpu architecture is different, so it doesn't work

what happens if you enforce the software audio encoder in the settings dialogue?

if nothing works you could use VLC until MX works again
[MX Player] codified:
Nvidia Shield uses Tegra, not ARM-Neon. You downloaded the wrong codec.

Use the all-in-one (AIO) pack and MX will automatically select the correct one.
[MX Player] pds75:
i dont thing so. application wants neon. i have instaled AIO but no sound. on my nexus 7 is everything perfect.
[MX Player] USBhost:
Are you on stock ROM?

Or a custom one

Error on Verizon Samsung galaxy note 4

Hi

first of all I'll apologize in advance if this error has already been answered regarding my device. I went through the first five pages - saw there was a sinilar error for Nexus that got resolved. But couldnt fing Verizon Note 4 - so here's my post

MX player ver 1.7.38 (armv7 NEON)

Downloaded the Zip file from the first post which gave me neon.1.7.32rev1.zip on my download folder

In mx player settings/decoder/custom codec already displayed the zip file. When I tapped on it got the prompt "Restarting app to load codec" - so all well till this point.

But upon restart it says

"Cannot load custom Codec. Use default codec instead."

Tried several times but to no avail. Any help on the matter will be appreciated.

And once again - if its already been answered then apologies in advance

Hello, i just bought MX Player Pro on my Nvidia Shield TV but im not getting any sound on files with AC3 5.1 and i cant install any MX Player Codec on my shield from Play Store because they are all incompatible with shield tv, what can i do ?
[MX Player] Natakranta:
Read instructions in 2nd post. Download neon and tegra 3, maybe one of them will work. If not, new version for Nvidia Shield TV will be required.

Ask in Nvidia Shield tablet forums what decoder it is using. It should be compatible with Shield TV, is the same family of chips, x1 and k1. I may be wrong but I don't have any of these devices, so you have to test yourself.

DTS & AC3

Why dont developer include support code inside mx player. They said thet because of copyright infringement but if it is copyright material so why Developer let their modeator to include copyright material and make as custom codec. It is indirectly build by Developer wrapping his work as a custom codec. Either you should include the support in official app or don't pretend to be pure by sitting in a dirt.
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
FYI,

This forum is owned by XDA-Developers, not by the MX Player developer. Since I am much active in this forum, I have become a moderator. Neither I am a developer, nor associated with MX Player. My custom codec exist even before the shifting of mx player forum from their google group to xda.

To make it further clear, look at the date stamps. This thread was created on Feb 2013. The welcome message is posted in April 2014. It makes it clear that My thread is older than the official MX-Player forum existence in XDA. Even before me, some one has compiled the codec & released over here. When they have stopped updating the codec, I have compiled for me & released over here to help everyone.

Regarding copyright issue, Patent rules differs by country. If you look at the VLC, it also has DTS/Dolby support. But, if you look at the VLC website, they claim that according to the patent laws in their country it doesn't violate the copyrights. That's why they are still using those codecs. Where as in US or in some other countries it requires license.

To be clear I not associated with MX Player or their team. I am just an volunteer. Neither me or the developer has forced you to use this custom codec. It's a volunteer work. If you want to use it then you can use it. If I am forced to remove this codec from xda, simply I will post anywhere else. This is not an issue for me.
