  • Butt Scratcher on 02/05/2017 - 15:15

    No clue what the pro version adds, but the free version is by far the best media player I've used. But at 20c, why not!

    It has plenty of codecs, very intuitive design (I haven't ran into a player that does orientation swap right before using this) plus other great features that you wouldn't expect like continuous audio being played on a video even after you've locked the screen.

    • scrimshaw on 02/05/2017 - 15:30

      Paying 20c to get rid of the banner ads that show up when you pause the video.

      • Butt Scratcher on 02/05/2017 - 17:03

        Is that a recent thing? Because I haven't noticed any ads. I have a pretty old version and am using adblock. But I'd still be happy to fork out 20c for this. I'll probably hold off on updating in that case.

  • YellowKnight on 02/05/2017 - 15:17

    Does the pro add any other features? Gotta be the best video player on the store though.

      That's because when you take a coffee, you take the only copy of that coffee.
      When someone buys an app from a store the developer just needs to ctrl+v and another version is in stock for someone else to buy, and ctrl+v is free to do.
      Source: I just pressed ctrl+v and didn't cost me anything.

    • GregMonarch on 02/05/2017 - 17:30

      Bet you wouldn't pay $5 for coffee if that store was surrounded by several other stores selling the same coffee for $0.20 though.

      • giventofly on 02/05/2017 - 18:05

    Been using the regular MX Player for years now. It's awesome and probably the best video player out there.

    Then it got worse and worse (the bloody ads!). Been using VLC lately but for some stuff, MX still does it better.

    So I downloaded the old MX Player (apkmirror) before it was ad-ridden, zip signed it (to stop Play Store bugging me to update it), and installed via 3rd party app. No ads anymore but the downside is that it's an older version.

    Well I just bought the pro version for $0.20 using my Google Rewards money. It's bloody worth it.

    Thanks OP.

    • Diji1 on 02/05/2017 - 19:54

      If you were going to pirate the old version why didn't you just pirate the new version lel.

      • plasmoske on 02/05/2017 - 20:18

        I didn't really pirate it. I was only just using an older version before they loaded it up with ads.

        Zip signing it is to prevent Google Play Store from prompting you to update it. If you don't zip-sign it, you'll just have to manual cancel or deny the update almost daily.

        It would be like using Facebook app and not updating when they tell you that there's a new update available.

  • sleet on 02/05/2017 - 16:13

      If you have the episodes in chronological order in a folder, open the folder in MX and play the first episode and MX just plays one after the other. You can skip to next/previous episodes and it also marks the videos as "watched" in the folder view

      • Multipass on 02/05/2017 - 22:46

        Awesome thanks mate, works a treat. Doesn't appear to work when streaming over a lan though.

    Finally.

    Rolled back to an old version awhile back because the ads are so obtrusive now! And I certainly wasn't gonna reward them for that with 7 bloody dollars.

    This is a much fairer price. Thanks OP.

    Without a doubt the BEST media player for Android TV.

    It works great on my Sony Bravia unlike the default player which has very limited format support. Also, it's quite fast unlike VLC which is very slow on Android TV.

    Brilliant app, I've used it on a huge amount of devices since I got my S2 and it's always been the goto. Works well on most units and properly supports hardware decoding where possible. Basically everything on the MINIX and Ki Plus in hardware and by contrast and almost nothing on the Samsung (S7) but it's software support is excellent.

          I found with the android mediaboxes that I have (MXQ 4K and a T3), Kodi doesn't seem to play x265 files smoothly at all. It even looks like it is using software decoding. Whereas ES file explorer and feeding the media file to MX player over a LAN has no problems. Also Kodi up to 16.2 did not feed AC3 sound to my hi fi receiver without breakups whereas MX Player was great.

    I use this for podcasts I've downloaded independently myself as it (mostly) remembers playback position and has a toggle to be used for audio only. Faster than loading up Joe Rogan or whatever on some app and streaming, and offline files can be played when you're between disposable Boost Mobile 4G package 28 day counts.

    Possibly silly question but has anyone got a reliable 4k UHD player that plays natively on android tv os 1920x1080 is max at output at the moment regardless of whether it will play the file or not.

        Yes. Never seen anything that is device-limited. This app is also eligible for Family Library - ie other people nominated in your family library can also install it on any of their devices. You need to switch on the sharing per app - as some you might not want to share.

        • SomeGuyOnOzB on 07/05/2017 - 09:45

          I think I've seen some Amazon app freebies, that were per device or per installation.

          Once installed, that's it. Cannot uninstall + reinstall, can only install for free on a second or other device during the promotion.

          But that was installed via the Amazon app.

    This app work's well, the only problem is that it drains your phone battery fast, whether you use it or not,

    all good.

    • retiredfeline on 08/05/2017 - 09:48

      Doesn't happen for but if you want to shut down the app, touch the Recent Apps icon (the rectangle which is the right of the three at the bottom) and swipe the app to the side to close it so it won't run anymore. Except for any notification hooks it's installed which I don't believe this app has.
