[Q] MX Player to display URI/link to current video - MX Player

Hey just wondering is there anyway to find out the links that mxplayer is using when i open a stream from another app and it takes me to mxplayer. When i am in mxplayer watching the stream, i cant not find out what the link is....
Guess that is normal but anyway of finding out what the link is? If not on mx player is there any way of opening an app too see the files and where it is linked to?
Thanks for taking time to write back

When you are on the playing screen, go to menu>tools>properties.
There you have it.

Mplayer is nice
Act 1 video player is pretty good. Pause and play with a tap of the screen and ff or rw by sliding your finger forward or backwards. full screen works great on the nexus.
Personally I just use the built in media player, works in fullscreen and gets the job done just fine.

Ok I give, where is this video media player? what is the app name on the N1?
if your movie isnt playing in full screen, then you didnt encode the movie to the correct resolution. encode your movies whether they be rips or mkv's, make sure you encode at 800x480 mp4, 24fps, AAC 96, good to go. if you have no idea what i'm talking about, then do more reading

It's called "Gallery." Your videos are listed alongside your pictures. Or choose a video with any file browser.

Yeah, I should've mentioned where it was, not exactly intuitive in my opinion. As carnegie0107 says it's the gallery app. I had actually installed Act 1 Trial because I couldn't find the built-in one and when I launched a video file from a file browser it asked if I wanted to open it in Gallery so I gave it a go and it worked like a charm. So no need to spend money on a video player unless it adds support for more codecs
Act1 is great. I had a 640*480 video that needed to be stretched to the full 800 pixels for proper viewing and Act1's full screen mode did the trick. It also shows battery level and time without being obtrusive and has quick access to brightness controls.

No. It doesn't work. I hope it has a video player like apple's. After click a key, the picture will be stretched at top and bottom. The left and right side will be cut a little. Note screen is 1280*800, but the 720p is 1280*720. if have this, it will be full screen.
Try MX Video Player it has extra codecs and such. Runs fullscreen, easier fast forward and rewind.

Tried all five codecs, I think the 'crop' mode should work, but it's same as full screen, there has a problem.

problem with you tube

Hi, iam new with this stuff i bought a g tablet, and i want to know why i can't see some you tube videos, is there something that i have to install???
Thx pablo
are u trying to watch inside the browser or the youtube app?
with the youtube app it only shows videos formatted for mobile devices as the youtube app from the market is not tablet specific.
inside the browser all should play but u will need working flash player.
I was doing thru you tube aplication, but some videos was on facebook page.
Now i change the setting to view like desktop on the browser and problem result. Thanks, what a newbie!!!
sounds like you need to use the site and the flash player app that's floating around here on xda devs.. you can long press a video and make it full screen

[Q] Is there no stock media player on the Xoom WiFi?

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

[Q] How to View Library in Stock Video Player Widget (ICS)

Any one know how to view your library from within the stock video players widget? I can't find any button or menu that will allow you to see the contents of your video library. Alternately whats a good video player for a tablet to replace the stock one? I've tried Mixzing but its not made for tablets so it doesn't have a widescreen setting.

I just use ASTRO and/or andexplorer and it goes right to my video files.

I have a couple file explorers but I want to see the library from within the player itself. There are forward and back buttons on either side of teh play button to move between videos but you can't see titles doing it this way. I have about 40 video files in my library and its impossible to tell which one I'm picking to play within the player.
edit: found moboplayer to use, it at least opens up to a decent library at start but doesn't have a widget. Going to switch to MX Player its a lot better but still no widget.
I'm not sure what you are looking for. In the stock video player I can choose any video that I want.
If I misunderstood, please let me know.

I have the stock music players widget on my desktop, when playing a movie I cannot select another one by name as their is no menu to access the library. So I guess the topic should have included the widget part. I update the op to reflect this thanks for your help.
Oh, and I think that I understand that now.
Maybe this app could hep you:

I tried it but still no way to access the library from the widget. Just going to stick to stock and will just have to close the widget and open the player app to get at the library.

Video from iPhone users?

Every time an iPhone user sends me an iPhone video through text, it opens, and plays, but it is real tiny, and poor quality. Is there any way to watch an iPhone video in full screen, with good quality?

Try to download MX player or BS player and use it as your default player, see if you can watch with good quality and full screen.

Go into settings->app then select all apps, find the default video player and hit clear data, stop the service then exit, and it should prompt you to pick a video player.

Let try this first, how about save the qcp file to your local storage then use MX player to open it and see if you could see it with full screen and good qualtiy?
Edit: qcp is a compact video format for ringtone and such so don't expect too much about quality..

That's one of the first things I tried. MX Player doesn't even recognize the file. If I open MX Player, and choose the folder where I saved the video file, the file doesn't even show up. If I use ES File Explorer, I can see the video file where I saved it.

I installed ARM v7-Neon. I then manually added qcp to the files list, and now I can see the video file. It plays the audio, but there is no video, just a black screen. Am I the only person who gets iPhone videos, and can't play them?
Could it possible be the video file itself?
I kinda have the same problem, it drives me up the wall! The whole slideshow thing when someone sends a MMS with a text is annoying.
