If you want minimal UI elements, Why don't you just use gesture (two finger vertical swipe on center)...?

It can be accessed on the fly without need of any UI elements.

It has to be done manually for each app which uses heads-up notifications. Open the properties of the app which frequently uses heads up notification. Then in notifications disable "Allow Peeking" or "Previews in pop-up" (In case of Samsung). Now There won't be any heads up notification from that particular application.

Slow opening of mkv files

Hi,

is it a limitation that opening mkv files takes ~8 seconds? Is this because of parsing of the mkv format? My Samsung Galaxy S3 starts to play avi files instantly, but starting an mkv file or returning to mx player app and continue takes ~8 seconds.

I already tried different combinations of SW/HW decoders for audio/video stream without any improvement. Latest version of MX Player Pro and custom codec installed.

File properties says for an example file:

Decoding software: libebml v0.7.7, libmatroska v0.8.1

1 video stream (1024x576, H264 high profile)

1 audio stream (mp3, 48kHz, stereo)

1 subtitle stream (ass)

Mx player google pixel nougat 7.1 hw+ issue

Hello friends,

I have recently purchased google pixel 128gb & I have lot of mkv movies on it. My issue is while playing the mkv movies through SW decoding everything is working fine for example forwarding, rewinding no issues but if I try to change the mode from SW to HW+ for some movies to play my device screen gets frozen & reboots the device.

I have tried this with THE BGF movie it always reboots if I try seek I mean forward.

I tried download & played the same movie in vlc player & everything works fine.

Please suggest what could be the problem.

[MX Player] jkccl9:
Nope
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Basically it's system isssue.

It may happen especially silent uninstall using superuser (root) permission. Android stores intalled package information & permissions. When it's not cleaned properly there kind of issues can happen. I am not an ROM expert. So, Can't provide a exact solution right now. I will let you know If I forund any fixes.

Hi!

I have question about switching audio track for IPTV stream on Android TV box, I'm using MX Player as an external player.

Is there way to define hotkey to switch audio? (Menu navigation takes too long, and video stream is paused while choosing needed audio track).

Also I don't want MX player to remember these settings. I just want to be able to switch temporary to another language.

It may not work if it's not same.
[MX Player] hamsteyr:
Not sure when exactly this happened, but mx player no longer shows up as an option when playing network video using either Asus Zen File Manager or ES File Explorer.
[MX Player] hamsteyr:
I would love to, but it doesn't even show up as an option at all, meaning I don't even get to launch the app

Refer to attached screenshot to see what I mean. Trying to open an MKV, MP4 or Avi still doesn't change anything. It still doesn't appear as an option.
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Which version of the MX Player you have?
[MX Player] hamsteyr:
1.8.10 on S7 Edge
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
That's fine. But, there is no other Players listed including Samsung's stock one. What are the options you are getting on ASUS zen file manager...?
[MX Player] hamsteyr:
It defaults directly to ES File Explorer without giving me a choice when using the Asus Zen FileManager.
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Can you install ES temporarily & Try in Asus File Manager...?

If all other apps backs again in open with dialogue, It's is a known bug of android 6.0 which affects many devices. It's already discussed in another thread. In many devices it's patched by OEMs through updates. Once you set some apps as default, if you clear the default, most other apps will disappear in open with dialogue box. In MX Player new work aroud was introduced. But, it will not work on all condition.

Once everything starts appearing, you can install back ES again.

[MX Player] terencelaw:
HI,

I have problem to load the subtitle file when I use MXplayer to play the video file with NAS connection. Even though, the subtitle is stored in the same folder as the video file. The MXplayer is just trying to look for the corresponding subtitle in locally. Eg. It will can only use / load the subtitle file in the mobile phone root or subsidiary directory. Hence, I have to pre-download and save the subtitle in root directory for mxplayer to load it. This is troublesome. I have no issue with Kodi player. It will automatic load the subtitle in the same folder or I can choose the file in the other folder in the NAS or same network.

Please solve this issue.

Thanks.

Thanks for your reply.

I am using Qfile file explorer by Qnap.

As per your suggestion, I try other file explorer to load the video from my Qnap Nas. I tested ES file explorer. It works.

However, the MX player can be able to load 1 subtitle ( even I have two different languages subtitle files in the folder with *.eng.srt and *.cht.srt).

BTW, I can not using the MIxplorer 6.10 to access my Qnap Nas. Kindly describe how you would do that. Thanks.

App version you have is outdated to use the installed codec, please upgrade to the latest version.

Installed version: 1.8.10

Required version: 1.8.11 or later.

CANCEL OK

If you push cancel it closes MX Player and if you push OK it takes you to the app store where it currently shows ver. 1.8.10

It seems that 1.8.11 available only on beta channel.

Order may take up to 24 hours depending on the payment method, although in most cases, it only takes one or two hours. You can try again few hours later.

License is per Google account. The account used for purchase should be registered on your device.

(For Old Android market app users only) If multiple Google accounts are registered on your device, account used for purchase should be the first account among all Google accounts. This is not applicable to latest Play store update.

Play store's app error can cause license checking failure as Google License service is bound to Play store app. Try rebooting the device or upgrade Play store app to the latest one.

Dalvik cache modification can cause malfunction. There is a hacking tool, which exploits Dalvik cache. It leaves a garbage file on Dalvik cache after hacking. MX Player Pro will not be installed properly and license check will fail as well if this file is not removed thoroughly.

Google play should be installed and worked with no problem. Otherwise license checking may fail.

Some patch tools such as Lucky Patcher, AdAway may disturb license validation. If you installed one, please try after removing all these tools.

Also try clear the Google Play Store app data on System settings > Apps > Google Play Store and then Remove & add your account again.

Hi guys I haven't been in forums for awhile, this isn't a question but I just wanted to share I solution for a problem I was having in case anybody was having this issue. My apologies if this has already been posted somewhere. I've been using the player for awhile now to listen to audiobooks that I have on my phone. Basically the issue I had was that MX Player kept cutting off a few seconds of audio for each chapter, it was pretty annoying. What I did was go into settings and unchecked H/W+ encoder and scrolled down and unchecked S/W encoder too. This left only the H/W encoder as the default and my chapters stopped ending abruptly :)

The IP belongs to Flurry (Yahoo developer network). May be used for analytics. I think It doesn't collect your personal information. It may collects how the application is used & what are the functions mostly/rarely used.

Have you denied the network connection using firewall...?

It could be the reason for continuous connection attempt. Just allow it & check how many times it tries to connect..?

Anyway I will convey your concerns to the developer.

Mi Pad 2 - MX Player

A few day ago i bought mx player pro via playstore for my Mi Pad 2 android 5.1 which has the Intel Atom X5-Z8500 processor. When downloading via playstore the x86 version of mx player pro 1.8.12 is installed. But this version doesn't work with Mi Pad 2 (not with sw, hw or hw+ codec).

But when i download the Pro 1.8.12 (NEON) version directly from the mx player site it works perfect on my Mi Pad 2 with the sw codec and the hw+ alternative codec.

The problem is that playstore keeps updating mx player pro to the x86 verion which doesn't work on any Mi Pad 2 (i searched all the forums).

It is clear to me that Mi Pad 2 needs the armeabi-v7a library not the x86.

(for example : to get showbox working on Mi Pad 2 i also need to install the version with armeabi-v7a and remove the x86 lib if it is present, to get it working)

How can i solve this ?
[MX Player] Kirek50:

Solution thanks to pcristi from Futeko forum.

HiMedia LauncherOverseas(Launcher_3D), not display MX Player Pro icon in official f/w no matter version or device.

Edit via adb shell app_pass.xml - get app_pass.xml from your box

adb connect ip_player

adb pull /system/etc/app_pass.xml

Remove:

application>

<package>com.mxtech.videoplayer.pro</package>

</application>

Push modified app_pass.xml to box

adb connect ip_player

adb remount

adb push app_pass.xml /system/etc/app_pass.xml

adb shell chmod 0644 /system/etc/app_pass.xml

Reboot your player.

Or from original firmware update.zip remove from app_pass.xml
