need help with xbmc youtube mx player error. - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hopefully someone can help me with this error I can't find a solution anywhere. I'm using xbmc on my transformer and it's set to use MX player to play most of the video on it. My only issue is that for all youtube videos mx Player keeps giving me "can't play this video" all other types of videos work fine. Is there a fix that I can apply that will allow mx player to play youtube streams? If not, is there a way I can set in the playercorefactory.xml to use the internal DVDplayer for only youtube streams and mx player for everything else? Is anyone else experiencing the same issue with MX player and youtube streams? Any help would be appreciated

I couldn't view any You Tube videos, so I sideloaded flash onto my transformer. This wasn't too successful, so then I downloaded the new YouTube app which is working fine.
As for your xbmc problem - I don't have the app, just know it is a multi media center/player.

Are you saying that you were able to get mx player to play youtube stream by updating the youtube app ? I'll have to try it and see thanks

Sorry, no. I was able to see video in the YouTube app whereas before I couldn't get any video to play in any browser. I know I had to sideload flash onto my TF101 - so whether it helped may also be a factor.

alright, so i find myself in same boat. Only thing is, I cant play Dailymotion videos which gives me same error using xbmc+mx player combo. have you found any solution?, I tried BS Player, Dice Player and making sure they were the external players by changing playercorefactory.xml file. but still no luck. I also tried switching decoder under mxplayer and all other players to only use hw decoder or sw decoder, but no luck.

[Q] Does the default video player support subtitles?

Hi.
I still haven't decided to buy this tablet yet. So I was wondering if the built in player displays subtitles embedded in mkvs, ass or similar files? I normally use moboplayer in order to play my soft-subbed videos on my cellphone since only a few players support this feature.
If this is not supported, is there another video player that supports this but also allows it be floating like the video player?
Thanks!

I believe that the default video player only accepts SRT subtitle file. MKV playback starts off a little bit slow but picks right up at normal speed after a few seconds.
In most of cases, it support srt. I had no problem on most movies, included mkv.
Try a app call BS player,its in the play store, I love it and it will search for the subtitles any movies you are watching..for you.

Use DICE player . It supports all subtitles and floating screen , and if subtitles are not synced properly but you don't have choice , this player can slow down subtitles or accelerate them during play .

Video Player

Anyone know of a good video player?? I have been looking for one but can't find one I like. I just need it to play videos in my library that's it. I have MX Player and I like it but only problem is when I click a video I want to watch when it's done playing that video it will skip to the next one. If I could find a way to disable that I would be happy. Any ideas will help! Thank you
You haven't looked thru the settings of MX player have you... Open MX player and go to settings>Player>Playback complete action

MX Player and MMS Video

Hi All,
I was wondering if there is a way to get MX Player to play MMS video files that are sent over text. I deleted my stock video player, not knowing that MX Player would not recognize or play videos sent over text (MMS). Is there a way to have MX Player play MMS videos?
Thanks!
MX Player should play all video files. Try changing decoder to S/W.
If you can, please upload that file.

Play youtube videos?

Is it possible to play youtube videos by streaming using mx player?
Using kodi with the youtube plugin and configuring MX as an external player, the youtube videos cn be launched directly in MX. But I´d like to do this with only the MX app, without needing kodi
Can this be done???
Thanks
Yes. I'd also like to play YT videos in mxplayer. Are you going to add this feature?

Unfortunately, MX Player doesn't playback of the webpages with embedded videos. However, we will explore the possibilities and make it possible in future if found viable. Meanwhile, stay with us and show your continued support to MX.

I have the same problem. I guess i is a change in the way of ripping the audio or more exactly the codecs they are using lately, At first it happened in just a few of videos, but week after week they are doing that way in much more that a few movies or tv shows. The worst news is that although the people works and share the codec file did not solve that issue and now either they use other codec to workk with the audios when thry rip the video or have found a different way and it caused us defness. And do not take it wrong, the people that works in the codec we use are doing a hellova work, but the reapers run fast. My advise, download X Video or Playit, wih tthose players you can cue the deafness until a new updated codec arrves to MX.
