I have installed BS player.. trying to play the video file below and it says unsupported format.
Radha Madhu - Radha Madhu Episode 100 from you tube.
I have installed adobe flash already(11.1 version). I am new user here and the forun doesn't allow me to paste url. Please help.
Try using the official app. If that doesn't work, then it's not compatible with mobile.

Found solution to my problem. All players (youtube/bs /mx and stock ) say unsupported format. The real issue these videos are not allowed to play on mobile.
I found the workaround is switch to desktop mode.

Thank you both for your insight.
Does the official app actually play videos in 1080p?

Hi all,
I just got my Xoom in the mail yesterday so please forgive me if this seems like a really NOOB question but...
I was trying to watch some movies on my Xoom from a mobile website that I have used / watched without any problems on ALL of my other mobile devices including my SGS I9000M, Nexus S AND my HTC HD7 Windows Phone but when I try to watch these vids on my Xoom I immediately get an error stating that "this movie cannot be played".
I looked in my applications drawer and I do NOT see any "Movie Player" or "Video Player" app listed and this has me quite confused.
If there IS a stock "Movie / Video Player" can anyone tell me where it is hiding on the device and if there is NOT a stock "Movie / Video Player", can anyone tell me what the best app from the market would be that will play videos directly from the web in a seperate media player?
Thanks in advance...
There is not. Videos are tied into the gallery. I use MoboPlayer as a video player from the market.

What website is it? Does it require flash and do you have it installed? Maybe download dolphin hd web browser and try it on that.
Your in for a rude awakening. Multimedia sucks on The Xoom(Tegra2) and you need to 'convert' almost every type of movie file since majority are High or Baseline profile.

This, I'm hoping its a software issue that google can fix. I hope VLC can maybe create a software decoding solution for us too maybe.
IF u dont plan on returning it then go to this thread

Hi guys,
I rooted my Nexus 5 and flashed CM11 on it. Opened up a page with a vimeo embedded video on it, and got a "plugin not supported" error - in CM browser, Chrome, and Dolphin. Same page worked just fine yesterday on stock. Youtube works fine.
I'm a noob at this, so can anyone point me to what's wrong?
link to that video?
Can't post links yet, but this is the page on which I was trying to play the video:

oh, ok. i see your issue. the video is posted in flash. the nexus 5 can not play flash, unless through a third party app. there are browser that can play it, they send the vid to their site then convert it and play it for you.

It didn't play on the page, but it was able to recognize it as a video and opened it in the video player that Chrome uses.

if not on that page, if directly via vimeo, it could convert the file type so you can watch it. i can watch youtube vids via youtube, because it plays other files if flash isnt supported. but if someone posts a youtube vid in flash, not in youtube.com, then ill get the same error.

Strange. It was on that page, I could see the video thumbnail and clicked on it. I guess I'll just get over it, not many vimeo videos out there generally.
Hello guys,
after yesterday's upgrade of MX PLayer Pro to version 1.8.4 i'm not able play videos via DLNA anymore. I tried reinstall application, restart phone, clear settings of MX Platyer, but without success. I'm using latest BubbleUPnP, and also latest Serviio DLNA server. Also, with another player (VLC) is everything ok (so from my point of view is issue with MX PLayer). My phone is Nexus 5, latest stock Android 6.0.1. Any suggestion, what can be a rootcause?
thanks a lot

I can confirm that there is indeed a bug with the newest version. The application crashes when you try to stream a video. Local files are working okay. Reviewers on Google Play also say the same thing. You can revert to the previous version or wait for the fix.
HTC M9 stock Android 6.0
Also got this problem using intent to start the stream. See here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/mx-player/mx-player-1-8-0-alpha-test-t3239819/post68168410
New update is being rolled out by the developer to fix the 1.8.4 regressions. It may take some time reflect in Google Play. Just wait for 1-2hrs.

Hi,
I am trying to view live videos from MoneyControl android app on LENOVO Tab 2 A10-70. It throws an error to install Mx player. However, even after installing Mx player it does not work and throws the same error.
Do I have to install additional codec or get paid version of it?
Thanks.

This sounds like more of a question for the developers of "MoneyControl" if they are failing to detect MX Player's presence.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
I am not able to view live video though Google Chrome. using the same tablet I believe it internally uses MX player - please correct me if I'm wrong.
Live video sites:
moneycontro llive (please google search - it does not allow me to post link)
ndtv live (please google search - it does not allow me to post link)
It looks like Mx player is not installed correctly on the tablet.
Do you know how to fix this issue?
Thanks
Does MX Playe work if you try to launch it by itself? If MX Player is able to launch itself as a standalone app, then the problem likely isn't with MX Player. Again, you should also go ask MoneyControl to see if they can help as well.
P.S. you can still post links if you remove the URL tags around them.
Hey, I was using MX player Pro build 1.9.3 without any issues.
Today it updated to 1.9.5 from Play Store.
Since the update, I cannot play any video that contains a WMV1 or WMV3 video stream.
The player tries HW decoder, then SW, then gives an error:
"This video format (wmv3) is not supported."
All those videos used to play back perfectly in the past up to (and including) build v1.9.3.
What's going on...?
I'm on Sony Xperia Z1 Compact. I launch videos using ES File Explorer.
This setup has worked absolutely flawlessly in the past for WMV files or AVI files containing WMV video tracks.

Message itself clear. Looks like MX Player has dropped support for some more codecs.
May be yet another patent issue. Anyhow, Custom Codec will work as usual with all codecs.
Not happy with this either. Especially for an app I paid for.
Hopefully just a bug they will fix.

Just hit this too, this is a problem. Is there a codec I can load somewhere that will enable wmv3?
same problem with mpeg2 hopfully thy wil fix it soon
I got this problem today, when upgrading from 1.9.3 to 1.9.8
The installation of the latest version of MX Player Custom Codec With DTS Support helped

Use Mango player apk , it's supports all type of formets
Dear jguy, the solution you supplied doesn't work. I followed it to the letter. Version 1.9.3 was flawless. I'm sorry I upgraded. I'm a paying user. I use my tablet to make a living. I use video to teach English. Not being able to employ my collection of WMV3 files blows a hole in my resource collection. If only I could reinstall 1.9.3.

You sure you picked the right version for your device? It worked for me with a Pixel xl. Also, not my solution, just provided a link for a previous post a few up.
MX player no longer plays WMV3

Thanks for this, worked like a charm!
For anyone else, I originally tried the codec from the Play Store and didn't work. I uninstalled it and downloaded the custom codec from the link above and installed thru the app and works perfectly.
