This music player is not fully functional!!! It does not (as of yet) actually play music from the device. The purpose of the app is to assure complete compatibility between all devices. I will be updating as frequently as I can due to being in college. As I find bugs (either myself or if they have been reported) or enhance various sections of the Music Player. If you have any knowledge of how to read music from the device and list it, please feel free to help out. If there are any bugs or if something doesn't look quite right on your device, let me know so that I can fix it. Tell me what you guys think

There are official releases for neon and ICS+ devices over on xbmc.org.
For Tegra2 / GB devices I'm likely not going to be working on them much, if at all going forward. I no longer have a Tegra2 or GB device and version 13 of the upstream code base has some changes that will make it very difficult to support the Tegra2 going forward.
Thank you to staticaDK, repvik, lavero.burgos, and XBMC Android for their help with mirroring.
staticaDK has suffered equipment failure and his mirror is down. Any links / bookmarks to his mirror will no longer work. Please DO NOT use old links to this mirror
The xbmchub.com guys are launching http://www.xbmcandroid.com/. The forums are open for registration for anyone that is interested.
We also have a FreeNode channel #xbmcandroid for those that are interested.
I have also broken out a lot of the information from this XDA thread as separate threads on xbmcandroid.com
Please note these are unofficial builds of XBMC, please report issues here or xbmcandroid.com ONLY
Builds are now auto-run every Sunday (through out the day). I will no longer be directly linking to the builds, please head over to the mirrors (links below) to download a given build.
XBMC, What is That?
XBMC is a media player / HTPC software package that does just about anything you'd want on a home theater box or a portable media device. See http://www.xbmc.org for more information.
Why Here?
I have been maintaining nightly builds of XBMC for Android and after a few requests and realizing my posts have been cross-linked it's time to create a central spot for the builds.
Schedule of Builds
Builds are now run automatically every Sunday.
What Is Special About These Builds?
I have re-built the CrystaX NDK that is required for XBMC from sources and made some compiler flag changes in order to improve NEON device support and to support the Tegra2 or other non-NEON devices. These are unsupported changes, particularly the Tegra2 and any other device without NEON. The official XBMC stance is NO device lacking NEON will receive support.
What Is / Is Not Supported
All builds are now built for 2.3.x (GingerBread) or higher devices. ARM ONLY. I will not be releasing MIPS or x86 builds.
Google TV devices are UNSUPPORTED. I do not know if / when the XBMC dev's will be supporting Google TV.
I will not be releasing aplayer builds. I will be leaving it up to Pivos to do releases. Please visit the Pivos forums for the latest builds with AMLogic hardware decode support.
Which Build Do I Want?
There are two builds, one for Tegra2 devices and another for NEON devices (see below for specifics). If you are not sure which type of device you have, try the NEON build and if it crashes, then use the Tegra2 build. If you have a non-NEON devices that is not the Tegra2, the Tegra2 build will run, but not all that great.

FAQ
Why is the APK so large?
This is a full build of XBMC including dependencies, resources and the like. There is a lot to the build and output. See http://pastebin.com/LgnWzdHW for a breakdown of what is contained within the APK including file sizes.
Does zipalign help with the size of the apk?
I ran zipalign and it didn't reduce the file size, likely won't help given what is packed in the apk.
Is there a better skin for touch screens?
Under the appearance settings there is a skin named "Touched" that works much better on touch screen devices than the default.
Does my hdmi out / dock / etc work for tv playback?
There are reports of this working properly in this thread and others.
Can I change the resolution for hdmi / similar playback?
Initial reports indicate this is not possible currently.
Does it work with CyanogenMod 10 (CM10)?
Maybe. Some users have reported success with CM10, others have had issues.
How do I get Fahrenheit Temperature?
Settings > System > International -> Change your region to USA if you want Fahrenheit
Common Problems
My screen starts flickering / freaking out: Kill the app, clear the app cache, restart devices, try again. Continue until the problem goes away.
I cannot play SD / 720p / 1080p content without stutters / dropped frames / audio sync issues / etc: Tough luck. Right now hardware decode support isn't complete, if your CPU can't process the video in software, you're stuck for the time being. The XBMC devs are working on hardware decode support and it will be done in due time. Do not ask for a deadline, there isn't one right now.
Battery life: Expect a pretty bad battery drain. This has been confirmed by a few others as well as the devices I tested. Given the project is targeting set-top boxes and similar equipment I would not expect this to be addressed until other, larger items are taken care of. Please do not complain to the official team about this item, complain here.
Resource utilization is high: This is known. Not going to change for awhile, do not complain to the official team, complain here.
Audio does not work: The XBMC audio levels and Android audio levels are not the same, you will need to adjust the volume in Android up to a higher level before launching XBMC most likely.
DVD Navigation may or may not work properly: This is known and being worked on by the main XBMC team.
/data is inaccessible: This partition is not accessible from XBMC.
Touchscreen Non-Responsive: Some users have reported the touchscreen taps aren't registering well or at all. The Toshiba Thrive 7" and 10" tablets seem to suffer the worst from this.

Great thread.
Is there any chance you can include a changelog of commits as you are building them then it will have all the information in one place without having to go to github etc.
Just a suggestion

I will be calling out any noteworthy changes with the builds. Right now I haven't seen anything of note coming in on the commit logs. It looks like they are doing general cleanup and some under the hood work.
Thank you for bringing this to us Tegra 2 users. It works so damn well.
This is fantastic. Absolutely great. Is there anyway to import the visualizers from ProjectM?

Download works for me, I used the stock ICS browser (came with the ROM I'm using). Just hit download.
If you're websensed (at work/school, blocked by IT firewall/censored page), right click the link, copy link address, make a QR code here, install Barcode Scanner, and scan the generated barcode.
Testing on a Tegra 2 phone (it's the 3G version of the Sprint Motorola Photon 4G). I will edit/post with results. FYI, huge file size. Don't download on 3G/4G unless you're a light data user/you have a nice plan (US Cellular 5GB plan, FTW).
//edit: 48.82MB. Good lawd that's a big APK!
It starts...
It can play music... but it's kind of a PITA, vs. your favorite music app. First you have to add the source. Hit browse. "Android Music" is the place your music player is getting it from. It's a placeholder, like the Libraries in Windows 7/8.
You can launch apps from it. Neato.
Videos... Eh... They don't get added as easily as music. "Android videos" might refer to the camera roll, but it's not where I have my videos. I had to add that manually. I have a 720p MP4 of the Fallout 3 intro that MX Player plays like butter, but it plays like crap in XBMC. A 3GP video I took with a dumbphone of my niece b***h-slapping me (she was 2 at the time, and objected "but he's my friend" first, haha) played fine. A shorter 720p video, another MP4 from YouTube, but only 4.5MB as opposed to the Fallout video's 47.3MB, stuttered almost as bad as the Fallout video.
Scrolling is... um, difficult. On the main menu, and if you have to browse for anything. It's gonna fight you. Works if you can grab the itty bitty scroll bar. But if you just grab the directory tree and toss, it may work or it may not. Or it may open the folder you grabbed it by.
Basically... it's nice and fancy but not too practical. Can this receive streams from a PC or server?

Downloads were down earlier today. I had forgotten DropBox had limits to how much data can be sent via public links. I also didn't expect to get that many downloads in the course of a day. I've moved my file hosting to another provider that provides more transfer and a dashboard that should let me keep an eye on my limits better.
I have updated the post with links to include file sizes and made a note to see about decreasing the file sizes.

Which skin are you using? The default in the build is confluence which is optimized for keyboard / remote usage. The settings area has an appearance tab that will let you change to the "touched" skin which is infinately more managable on a smaller screen.
Once you add the sources you can scan the items to the library (including auto-scans on launch) that greatly improves visibility and access to content.
Your success with video is pretty much par for course on the Tegra2. XBMC currently does not have hardware decode support and relys on software rendering. It has 1/2 of the floating point units (why it won't receive official treatment) that you would find on a newer chip which greatly impedes its ability to decode video content. Things will improve once hardware decode support is available (it's being worked on in mainline). I will be working on improving the builds as much as I can while the mainline devs finish up general hardware decode support.
You can setup smb / ssh / upnp / similar sources and they should generally work.
finding a bit hit and miss opening the app on a Tegra 3 - TF300
will try and reboot and see if it's any better - have tried the force close/reopen
anyone else with more luck?
Edit: Reboot has helped - app opens no issue anymore
Thanks for the NEON build - using the Touched skin
Confluence looks better, but Touch is more functional by far!
On a Tegra 3 TF300:
720p AC3 mkv - playback OK but not watchable - stutter. Audio appears to play mostly uninterupted.
1080p DTS mkv - playback OK but not watchable, but audio and video stutter.
Keep up the good work!
Looking forward to a stable build with HW acceleration!
Yeah, I wasn't expecting much out of XBMC. I knew the limitations going in. 0% of the blame on you. Some is on nVidia (Tegra) and Motorola (Photon 4G/Electrify) but some is also on XBMC themselves. MX Player plays HD video beautifully on my phone, although I do have it formatted for my screen. So it's scaled down to 960x540 (not 720p as I stated above). So video playback is possible in Tegra 2. Not sure if MX Player's drivers are open source. Might be worth looking into.
And I was using Confluence, didn't think to change the skin. I use a ROM that has a hybrid tablet mode, so I'm used to touching smaller screen items than many Android users, particularly those on stock builds. I actually had little trouble hitting the tiny touch controls for media on the main screen, and those were some tiny buttons, but I'll check out the other skin.
Other skin checked out, works a lot better, thanks.

I'd hold off until you know if it will perform or not. On the Tegra2's there is hit or miss support for even SD content. Support seems to boil down to container format and audio stream. I know my SD content stored in mkv with ac3/dts audio stutters badly at times. I've heard reports of xvid avi + mp3 audio being much better for playback.

Question: "My volume is stuck at 50% and won't go higher, why?"
Answer: Blame Google. See this: https://groups.google.com/d/topic/mx-videoplayer/-g9Mq6lIGAo/discussion and this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54977786&postcount=6
Quote of answer from original Google Groups thread:
This is an Android system "feature". Google added it to comply with EU laws. The EU requires companies to warn of "excessive volume on headphones" to protect your hearing.
If you go into MX Player Settings -> Audio -> Enable System Volume Panel, this will bring up the Android system volume panel whenever you change volume. This will bring up that volume warning at 50% that you see in other apps, so that you can clear it.
The reason this doesn't show in MX Player normally is because MX Player doesn't use the Android system volume panel by default. MX uses its own volume panel, the much cleaner, smaller one that we are used to seeing.
The warning shows up on Google Play Music because that app uses the system volume. If you are on headphones with any other app that uses the Android system volume panel, you would see the same warning.
Note that you'll have to manually acknowledge that warning every time you restart the device, as the phone system does not "remember" that you cleared it when the device restarts.

My videos are showing up twice in MX Player! How can I fix this?
This is likely because MX Player's video folders are set to check more than one location that the SD card is mounted. Change your video volders to remove one of the SD Card mounts.

My device is playing Hi10p really poorly, even though it's a very new/powerful phone! What can I do?
1) Hi10p can only be played on HW+ for Tegra devices. No exceptions. All non-Tegra devices must use SW for Hi10p.
2) When using SW Mode:
--> a) Settings -> Decoder -> CPU core limit -> Set to max of whatever your device is
--> b) When playing video: Menu -> Play -> Use speedup tricks
On an image that should be white, I'm getting weird black "pepper" artifacts on the white area, how can I fix this?
If you are seeing something like the image in the spoiler, change your colour format to RGB-32.
Settings > Decoder > Color format > RGB-32

Pan on Note 10.1
Please add to the bug list the pan problem on Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1, detailed in https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mx-videoplayer/svXy0vhIUOQ
Hello, thanks for this great app.
I wanted to request something I think is a great feature, but then I was happy to see it already in the high priority list.
Popup Player: https://groups.google.com/d/topic/mx-videoplayer/ws_voRX-MVc/discussion
But then I looked at the original thread and it dates back 2 years. Is there any word on development of this?
I see so many video apps successfully implement this and it seems to work wonderfully well for playing local files as well as streaming. For stress testing I even tried out large video files and heavy streams while loading up heavy apps and games and I never noticed lag or stutter, on my first generation nexus 7.
MX Player has always been my favorite android player since my nexus one, 4 years ago until today. And I would love to keep supporting it but I'm now downloading other players when I need floating video.
So I hope for some good news on development of this great feature, thanks!

auto resume on startup
Hi
This player is awesome.
Here a feature needed for android car radio. Android car player are more and more popular, a nice feature would be an option when we start the player, the last played file start automatically on resume, like a normal car cd player do. (no need to start the application automatically, there is already an application for that).
Because each time the car is turned off, all applications are stopped by the android system. of course, if you use the integrated player it resume automatically, but it does not play all format and the interface is not good enough.
Thanks!
Cedric
@AlbertAS and @xenyz please make a new forum thread for your feature requests, then link that thread here, so that it can be added to the list. With a thread for your specific request, it is easier to keep track of each item.

Android car player are more and more popular, a nice feature would be an option when we start the player, the last played file start automatically on resume, like a normal car cd player do. (no need to start the application automatically, there is already an application for that).
Because each time the car is turned off, all applications are stopped by the android system. of course, if you use the integrated player it resume automatically, but it does not play all format and the interface is not good enough.
Thanks!

This is a great video player indeed, but as a car stereo app it's not ideal I'd say.. cause that's not its main purpose.
In my car I've been using PowerAmp for over 4 years now, it works great with everything you need from auto resuming to lockscreen controls etc. PowerAmp was one of the first apps to integrate all these things and still does it best imo. Although many other players have adopted the same functions.

I agree that PowerAmp is probably one of the best music player apps out there.
Apologies in advance if I'm doing this wrong.
I have MX Pro, and would like to see it brought to Google TV...namely the Sony NSZ-GS7.
It doesn't appear in the Play Store for GTV, and I have tried sideloading MX player and it offers a "not supported" message.

MX Player cannot run on Google TV because Google TV version of Android does not allow direct access of system module.
MX Player requires direct access of system module to speed up video decoding.

Hello wonderful MX Player forum
Ok, beginning with Android 5.0 a user can now perform a Search (filter search) in the "Settings".
It intuitively helps less Android-saavy users find what specific system settings they want without these users (or any users) getting lost in a maze of menus
I think it would be nice if the Settings menu in MX Player had the same filter 'Search' function which would highlight words when typed.
MX Player already features a brilliant nifty search function but this is only for searching the per-scanned library of found video files.
This is not a needy feature but definitely one to consider for a future version in this same existing Material Design UI
