I think it's a little bug, but very annoying.
I offten use MX Player for watching music video clips on android car media system. I have a lot of folders with lots of videos.
After turning on media system and starting MX Player I usually pick the button (in menu) that continues playing a last video.
All is ok, video plays - no problem, after that starts next video in this folder - no problem too.
But the problem is - after playing the LAST video in this folder MX Player stops and displays list of folders! Not list of files in folder started in, but list of folders! I think it's very annoying to seek the folder in list every time.

Would you check Settings > Player > Back to list ?
If this option is checked on, MX Player will return to video list instead of playing next video.

Oh, no! In that case MX Player will stop after each video!
I think what Albert is saying is that right now, when all the videos in a folder is completed, MX returns to the root folder list. What I read as Albert's request is that when a folder is finished, return to that folder's view instead of the root folder list.

Ok I misunderstood AlbertAS's request. @AlbertAS Please try latest test build. In this build, folder list will auto-scroll to the position of last folder.
Therefore you will no longer need to scroll down to find next folder. https://sites.google.com/site/mxvpen/translation/test-build

I am using my Samsung Note 10.1 to watch lots of instructional videos; each course is composed of 10-40 video files, stored in folders, subfolders etc
I have tried bunch of video players; they all can play videos ok, but once the device is rebooted I have to do the whole process again (start video player, point it to certain folder, scroll through the files I have seen already etc)
Would anyone suggest an application which could start playing from the last position the player has been stopped at? (i.e. the player should remember it's "state" (playlist, position etc and being able to start playing right away)
As an alternative fix - would it be possible to switch my tablet into "deep-sleep" (hibernation?) mode so it could stay in such mode for a long long time without draining the battery and, once waken up, restore last work session)?
Have you tried MX Player? I don't have a Note 10.1, but I use MX Player on my Note 2 and it always resumes from where I left off no matter what.

how does it do it? As far as I can see, MX Player would higlite folder (and then file inside), but you will still have to navigate all the way to the file in order to start playing
is there a "resume play" button I have missed?
I probably don't really understand what you're asking.

I want video player app to recall exactly - which files it was playing the last time this app has been used - and start playing from the same spot
I want this to happen even after the tablet has been rebooted; I would start player, click "resume" button (or something like that) - and that's it
MX Player does give option in the video you last played of start over or resume after a reboot .
But the player will not open at the last played video after a reboot .
Neither am i aware of any player that does .

Please, add a feature - continuously playing video from one folder to next folder (similar to hardware MP3 players).
I have android media center in my car, so, i have a lots of music videoclips on hdd sorting by folders.
Now, after playing last video in folder MX Player stops.
And it's take some time and attention to find next folder in list, open it and start first video.
Please, add this feature!!!
MX Player is amazing! I love it!!!))
I saw from the sticky thread that this has been implemented. This is one of the major features I thought was missing from mx player, and I never would have found it if I hadn't come here with another issue.
I feel this incredibly useful new feature should have advertised somewhere. The change log in the play store maybe?
Did you know you can long press on folder and files and then press play button?
you can enable it by change sort view
just cancel sort by folder
enable/disable it menu->view
Hi,
When playing a video or audio file the following can be selected in the Play menu:
Loop one
Loop all
Shuffle
For playing audio there is one important option missing: "Loop all once". This would play all of the audio files in a folder and then stop after the last one. Right now I have it set to "Loop all" and this kind of works ok for audio, but I really don't want this for video. If someone sends me a video clip and I open with MX Player then this setting means the video will play on an infinite loop and it is very easy to home out and have it playing in the background running the battery down.
Also would be really great to be able to select which audio files to be played from a folder rather than just starting from the one that I select and playing sequentially down.
KnightAzul
Not everybody will be always happy, this "loop all once" would be a good feature, but I never needed that, I dont even know an audio player with that option.
An editable playlist for audio files, this is good too but this is more a video player.
This feature could be taken to be added to feature request list.
If you long press on a folder and hit play, it will play all files in that folder.

HI!
I usually download all my torrents on mobile including my TV shows.Recently,I downloaded arrested development season 1,mkv file and was watching it using mx Pla:yer prowhen all of a sudden my mx player stopped detecting those videos.So now I have to use my file explorer then navigate to downloads and then finally select a file and click it.This ****'s irritating ,so could you guys give me your advice,since you people know more?
@rashadthegre check
Settings > List > Folders
And see if your download folder is in the list of folders to be searched by MX.

Hi,
MX Player can detect most files with default setting.
But there are still some devices not detecting all files unless adding folders manually.
It would be help for improving default setting if you send system log after refreshing video list.
Please make sure that log should be gather immediately after refreshing video list because it will be erased periodically.
Thanks

I am having the same issue. I have added the folders that my videos are in, on mutiple levels, adding every folder from the desired video folder up to root and still it has none of my desired videos and I must resort to using VLC. Here is my bug report, maybe I could get some help?

Some of your video folders contains a file named ".nomedia". It actually represents that there is no media content inside the folder. So, if you keep any videos inside that directory or any subdirectory, it will be ignored.
For example your download folder in internal memory & media folder on external memory has ".nomedia" files. That's why it's not getting listed.
Either you have to delete those files or alternatively you can force MX Player to scan the directories even if ".nomedia" file found (Goto Settings >> List & Disable "Recognise .nomedia". Then, Refresh the video list.

Hello
I tried MX Player 1.7.40 but can't figure out how to include a folder as there is no Save button, and hitting the left arrow makes MX Player forget the folder I added. I attached a screenshot.
What's the solution to get MX Player to remember folders?
Thank you.

Don't confuse with the tick mark on the right side. The right selection button is intended for batch hiding & removal of entries from list.
In simple theory, if something is listed on folders list without any strike marks, it's added to scan list.

Thanks but I found no way to add folders to the default "Notifications" and "Ring tones".
Does someone know how to play a video that lives in a different folder than those two?

Do you mean that you want to add ringtones & notification tones to folder list.?

No, I meant that I wanted to add a folder at the right so it'd be easier to navigate.
Turns out Android/EMUI/Huawei allow the user to do just that. I should have tried before asking :-/
After creating the folders, populating them with files, telling MX Player about them, it automagically updates the list of files and let me play them.
Thanks for the help.
Copy your videos to device/misc/Android and past them in this folder (you can also paste them in your own created folder) and MX player will read them. I don't know why but android apps cant access files outside this folder.
I had found the solution about it?
Yes i found the solution about it. Most of the people search the solution about it.
Let's Start
Go to Mx Player->Setting->List->Folders->Add video Folder you want to add then.
After that Just go to your file manager and go to the folder you have added in the mxplayer list then go to file Manager setting set to the "Show hidden files" then you can see the under the folder 1 file was hidden that's name is ".nomedia" delete this file.
"Now you can see the folder in the mxplayer."
Like, comment & share this knowledge to everyone...Thank You !!!
