device update

How can I update my Micromax a1 with latest android version
[MX Player] nilanko:
Mx player latest flawlessly played 1080p vids on kitkat 4.4.4 on moto E. Now on lollipop 5.0.2, it simply won't play 1080p vids. Says H/w/+ not supported. Plays with S/W but too laggy. Need H/w since it could play on 4.4.4. I installed armv7 neon codec as well. Doesn't make a difference.

Any Help will highly be appreciated :)
[MX Player] nilanko:
Never mind, found BSPlayer. A hell lot better than MX Player, there were some 1080p vids that used to lag a bit on MX on KitKat 4.4.4, even those videos run smoothly on BSPlayer, on LP 5.0.2. Wish I had found this player long back. I just use the BSPlayer's H/w decoder v2 and I have NOT pulled down any other setting.
[MX Player] foosion:
Very pleased to see MX player works well on Lollipop 5.1. No issues so far.

Hello! I have a problem with mx on lollipop running on note 3, with stock firmware: the brightness slide doesn.t work.

It's very difficult to say the root cause of the issue.

Kindly collect the logs immediately after reproducing the issue.

I am having the same problems since my nexus 7 2013 was updated to 5.1: unable to seek or slide advance and a laggy playback. Lollipop was always choppy for me, but 5.1 seems even worse. It's strange because, otherwise, 5.1 seems the best Android 5 release so far for my tablet, most of the problems being solved.

H/W+ not working in CM12S or CM12.1 nightly on OnePlus One

It used to work fine in CM11S, it stopped working once I updated to the official CM12S OTA.

I then did a wipe and flashed CM12.1 nightly build and it still won't work. H/W works in CM12.1, but even that wouldn't work in CM12S :(

h.264 MKV, the same files I played fine with HW+ on CM11S.

I have another issue. HW+ appeared to be working fine on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 with CM12.1 nightlies, but when I actually tried to watch something the video would freeze after a few seconds but the sound kept going. I switched to HW and the same thing happened, so I can only use SW on my tablet now :(

Will check out some other video players and see if they work. It's a shame because I really like MX Player and even bought the Pro version.
[MX Player] Alexey71:
Yep cm12.x bad work mx player. I back to cm11 hw+ fine
[MX Player] OsitKP:
That means the only one thing: your new ROM has poor video codecs. In other words your hardware cannot communicate properly with MX. The simpliest check is to play your video with stock player. If it doesn't play it, MX won't play it too. Only manufacturer can provide correct codecs for his device (maybe СМ team if they do the same version of Android).

I use MX Player on my Nexus 5 and had issues with H/W+ since upgrade to Lollipop 5.1. However, I just installed the latest MX Player Beta (dated 13 May 2015) and the issues are no longer present. :)

Can anyone else test and confirm.

I have OxygenOS installed on my OnePlus One 64GB. Since I installed MX player on this device, I have found that regardless of what options I select in the Folder settings, none of the videos on my phone show up in the files list. I literally have to locate the file from the built-in file explorer, tap on the file's icon, and then select MX player as the default application. I have tried copying the file straight into the SD Card root, into simply-named folders, all to no avail. I am at my wit's end.

MX Player on Nexus 9

Hi,

I've just got my Nexus 9 and one of the first applications I tried to install was MX PLayer. Unfortunately the version in the App Store doesn't run on Android 5.0 and I couldn't install the test/beta version either.

Am I doing anything wrong?

If not, would anyone be able to give us an indication of when support for Android 5.0 and Nexus 9 could be expected, please?

By the way, which codec should we be using (once MX Player works) on Nexus 9, please?

Thank you
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Are you getting any error while installing test build?

Kindly post the screenshot
[MX Player] marctronixx:
do you have to be rooted to run the test file at the link posted on the first post here?

im not rooted and prefer to keep the nexus 9 stock.
[MX Player] Aashuk Mehta:
No root isn't necessary
[MX Player] WoodburyMan:
Launching the preview release of MX Player Pro on my Nexus 9 results in "Unfortunately, MX Player Pro has stopped"

Regular MX Player (Non pro) launches and will play video. However despite toggling "Software" and "Hardware" it appears to stick to hardware rendering only as it plays some MKV files with H264 video and AAC audio fine, but MKV videos with AC3 audio do not play the audio.

*EDIT* I had to enable "S/W Audio" under Decoder. After I did that my files with AC3 audio play fine. Great work!
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Can you attach the logs immediately after getting the FC on Pro version?

Install mx log collector from google play

Open mx player, when you get error click on ok to close the player

Now immediately open mx log collector, save the logs & upload here
[MX Player] WoodburyMan:
Here you go!
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
It looks like google hasn't fixed the issue on Lollipop stable release also.

But, the developer is working hard to find a alternative workarounds. So, kindly use free version till the rease of final build.
[MX Player] adita.cr:
Hi,

Thank you very much for the quick reply.

Unfortunately I can't install the test build. It asks me "do you want to install this application?" (I already allowed installing software from unknow sources) but I can't "press" "install", or when I do it it doesn't do anything. All I can do is "cancel".

[MENTION=4125648]WoodburyMan[/MENTION],

How did you install it, please?

Thank you
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Do you mean that Install button is disabled?

Scoll through the permission list. Once you reach the end press install.

If problem still presists,

If you have any old versions installed, kindly clear the data & uninstall.

Do a fresh install

It will be better if you can post some screenshot of install screen
[MX Player] Adita:
Hi,

I had uninstalled the old version and tried to install the test version a few times - it doesn't allow me. There's only one screen of permissions, so there's nothing to scroll through. The install button is there, but it does nothing. Only cancel works...

Please see attached screenshot.

Thank you very much.

Are you sure that you arr using the latest test build 1.7.32.20141029?

[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Read the first post or Instructions on download page. The issue lies in the Android itself.

[MENTION=3850543]bleu8888[/MENTION] is working on a workaround to fix this issue. So kindly use free version of test build for a while till he fix the issue.
[MX Player] foosion:
It was labelled videoplayer_ad__1_7_32_neon_direct_nightly.apk.

I uninstalled, re-downloaded, rebooted and re-installed. Now it works. Chalk it up to random fluctuations in the force.

thanks

[MX Player] ali4ek:
Nexus 7 2013, Lollipop 5.0 release, rooted.

[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Are you trying pro version?
[MX Player] ali4ek:
Yes.
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Read the first post & test build instructions on the official page. It's crashing due to bug which lies in Android 5.0 itself.

As I said in the another reply, Developer is working on a workaround suggested by google. Hope a new update will be rolled out soon... ? ? ?
[MX Player] cdaters:
Do you have any screen altering/adjusting apps that perhaps add a red tinge for easier reading at night or dimming the screen, etc. I have found in the past that these types of apps are actually overlaying their beneficial "stuff" on top and interferes with being able to access system buttons, etc.

Temporarily disabling these apps will allow you to finish your install....
[MX Player] Adita:
Thank you very much, it worked. I was using Lux. Now it's fine. Looking forward to the full release.
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
I have update the first post with the new nightly build details. Kindly download the latest test build (1.7.32.nightly.20141114) & install. Now Pro version can run without any issues & H/W+ is supported on 5.0

Is there any codec for Tegra K1? or do we use the tegra 3 one?
[MX Player] bleu8888:
Actually Tegra3 codec was introduced due to defects of Tegra3 chipset.

[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Unable to reproduce the issue

Can you upload a sample video that has issue & share the link of video?

It will be helpful to diagnose.
[MX Player] Mihai B:
Same here, but with different mkvs. HW+ mode playback stutters, while software mode works fine. Running nightly build on a stock Android lollipop Nexus 7 2013.

On a side note: Android L is live for more than a week, with previews available since the beginning of time and we still do not have an official MX player update fully compatible with Android 5.0. This sends a laziness signal from the developer, I regret saying it, but that's the truth.

Video samples:

SW: http://youtu.be/ZxcVfrq1aoY

HW+: http://youtu.be/cavkW4BJI6E

Watch around the moment when he says something about "it's not a brothel". In HW+mode there is a visible stutter. Sorry for the quality.
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
The link specified by you is a youtube link.

It won't help us to resolve the issue. We need a sample clip in which you have the issues. So that we can test on our devices.

Kindly upload a sample clip is any file sharing networks like dropbox and share the link.

The following are my personal opinions on your comment:

You are right. Android 5.0 is available from the last one week. But, there was a delay in releasing the source code. Even with source codes It won't fix itself. The developer has to dig into the source codes to find out the solutions. Do you think is it so easy (Android source code itself ~13GB).? Fixing itself also needs lot of codings.

For your Information, A new stable version of mx player was released as soon as first L preview build was released.

In the Last preview, Google hasn't released the source codes which is necessary to fix the issues. Even without source code, we has worked hard restlessly to make it working except H/W+ & released a another build on our test page. Which was working with the final 5.0 as well

Now all issues related to lollipop are fixed & already released a new nightly build few days ago with some more features. This new build is fully compatible with Android 5.0. It's very stable & can be used for daily use. But, since some minor issues needs to be fixed it is not released to Google Play. Otherwise it's a stable build. Even the developer could have released on Google play & address when the users reports. But, all he wanted is to release a perfect build.

None of the software in the world is perfect. Even the software giants like Google, Microsoft also leaves bugs.

Downloading, installing & blaming can be done in few minutes. But, Coding takes days. Being in touch with the developer, I know how he has worked restlessly to make it available for you people. But, You are simply blaming on him. Is it the reward you provide for a good developer?
