[Q] Playing gallery videos - non default player - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there anyway for playing the videos in the gallery in another media player by default other than the build in one, I have mx player installed and would like for the videos ive played in the gallery to play in that but if you click on the video in the gallery it just opens right up with no option as to what plays it. Searched the forum and have a found a few people asking but no one able to answer, also posted on the OPO forum but no one able to help.
Checked in the app info for gallery and mx player and cleared 'launch as default' but still just plays in the default app. Doesn't seem to be any app info por options for the default video player.
Reason i ask is that I have auto rotate disabled so if viewing videos that are shot in landscape they are not full screen, but if viewed in mx player there is a setting within the app to force them to full screen.

anyone?

[Q] mx as web player

Good morning,
I would like to ask, why I cannot choose to play a streaming video (like youtube videos) with mx-player and I can only play the stream with the browser built-in player. I use opera browser, but I have already tested a lot of different browsers without seeing any difference; the browsers don't give me the option to use another player, they don't see mx-player as an appropriate app.
Also I tried, to copy and past the videos URL into Network Stream box, but it doesn't work anyway.
Thank You for the support.
I use tubemate to watch youtube videos with less res.
Instead of downloading you can select watch it and select any player you want.

I still would like to figure out if there is a way to stream/play youtube video's automatically to my MX player...
The reason I want to find out, is that youtube is fast becoming the new music player of today... just type in a search for a band/artist (ie. "michael jackson") or general selection like (ie: "salsa music") and you'll be listening for hours to your favorite music.
But using the youtube app or the native browser is not satisfactory, because they will both stop playing/streaming once you lock the screen of your phone.
So if I want to listen to my favorite music while running, I can not use these sources.
MX player has the ability to keep streaming/playing music while the screen is locked...
And that is why I'm looking for a way to stream from youtube to this player.
Help!?!

mx player for video playing is not set as default.

while opening videos from gallery, the videos open in native video player instead of opening in mx player. i have mx player installed in my phone.
there is no option to configure the default setting.
please help.
if any body has any solution.
yup, same problem here, so i've just learned to live with the stock player lol
I think it's not possible to change this! Why I have no idea. There are volume problems with the default video player, as in it frequently starts loudest when the media volume is all the way down. Many times I've been in a quiet environment and boom it's loud and I have to scramble to turn it down manually. Also like the video to start fullscreen, which seems to me to be a sensible default behavior.

why don't you open the videos from dcim folder using es explorer or any other file browser?
Same issue with VLC.
any update ??
yeah i also facing the issue ,have you found the solution?
It's something Samsung have done, even if you use a package disabler to freeze the stock video player, it just complains that there are no apps installed able to play videos from the gallery even if MX Player is installed
Sucky move
I even denied permission for the stock video player it still plays the videos in gallery regardless. And you are forced to allow permission to the player to access the file.
If there was anyway we could disable the default video player we could replace it with mxplayer.
The default stock video player is stupid. When you change the brightness it also changes the brightness of the whole phone.

default video player

Hi
I've installed a video player on the phone. I'd like to be able to play videos from the gallery directly with that player and set as default. It does not ask me how I want to play videos, just plays through gallery, how can I change it? No default settings neither in gallery, nor in the player app. Throuhg settings-apps the default option is obviously inactive, can't set even there.

Use a different gallery, this should solve your problem.
When selecting a video it will ask you which player to use, just once or always.

Yeah, that did the job, thanks.
I'm a bit sorry though, I'd preffer the one that the rom comes with, hopefully they'll add this option.

Anyone able to change the default video player in Gallery to something else like VLC.

I have it changed for when I'm browsing in files app but it doesn't change when using the Gallery app. I was hoping Good Locks would be able to make the change but can't that option.

Will it play automatically from the Gallery app?
Doesn't look like it's possible. The Gallery app is so bonded to the camera app it's probably like that for a reason.
Personally I don't use Samsung Gallery as a standalone app, there are far better and more powerful apps out there. I use F-Stop for all my media content.
When you click video in the gallery app it then should ask you to use the Samsung player you dont select that and just then select mx

it doesn't give you that option in the stock GALLERY app. it always uses the samsung built in video player.
i have since switched to Fstop it works great however whenever i select a photo from the CAMERA app it always uses GALLERY not Fstop. minor inconvenience.
Ye will do that im not sure if there is a way to change it unless modding lol
