Hi,
I have setup the digitel media streaming on a Windows Media Player on Laptop with Windows 7(WMP Network Svc(Windows 7 Media Player Network Sharing Service (wmpnetwk)) to let other devices on the same wireless network to access media streaming. I have installed AnDLNA player on Android mobile to receive the Media Streaming. And also, I installed the latest of MX player since the AnDLNA client player couldn't read the vidoes files which is listed in it.
WMP is working as remote server on which digitel media are saved
AnDLNA is functioning as Client Player which will access the digitel media streaming on Windows Media Player which is functioning as server. When running any video in the AnDLNA client player, then I am prompted as to which player I should use, then I choose 'MX player'.
MX player played all video formats, except 'FLV' video format, although it is the latest version.
.
Although I have read on the top of the forum, this Discuss MX Player, the versatile media player for Android, capable of playing most types of video formats.
However, my problem is that when I have running FLV files, I don't find that MX player recognises them.
I hope that made my thread clear.
Any suggetions would be highly appreicated.
Could anyone please reply to me to finish this pending problem?
a) do these FLV files play properly in MX if you copy them to the device?
b) SW, HW, or HW+ mode?
c) What ROM?

Thank you so much indeed.
Yes, MX player can play the FLV files if they are copied to my device. However, I am accessing file via a WMP Network Svc(Windows 7 Media Player Network Sharing Service (wmpnetwk)) If I want to copy them to my device, then this would need about 80GB of Memory card on my device.
As said before that I am using AnDLNA client to access the video files shared on the Windows Media player on my Laptop. And once the files are listed on the AnDLNA client, then when I cliced on any video files, I was prompted as to which player can play this file, then I chose MX player.
Can I install any Video codecs for supporting FLV video format on MX player on my device. I know there are codecs available but the developer says you shouldn't need a codec unless the player asks for one on startup.
I hope you understand me.

I have posted this in general as I suspect it applies to other phones as well.
My HTC Rose can record videos in wither MP4 or H.263 format and for this, it works.
But when I download these files onto my desktop PC, I am having trouble finding a video player that will play back video AND SOUND.
VLC (which normally supports anything) does not support the samr codec. Windows Media player can't even play Video.
Now to date the only thing I can find that plays these things is Quicktime player from Apple but this is one piece of software I really don't want on my PC so what is everybody else using out there to play the video files they take on their phones?
Thanks
Hy,
do you have testet ffplay or mplayer on your desktop pc?
Greatz
I've been using Rockplayer to play my divx, wma, mp4 video files.
However I cannot play (stream) the files on my desktop via Wifi.
I know that yxflash player has that function but it is not a free solution.
Is there a free all-in-one player that will allow me to play files on the home network?
Thanks.
What possible solutions are there for streaming content whether it music or video from a PC to the htc Sensation, i have a lot of movie content and would like it if i could choose video files and play them (stream) so i dont have to download it to the sd card via USB.
Thanks.
I use VLC Stream & Convert, VLC Direct seemed to be very choppy when I played avi's from my PC.
You open VLC on your computer and add a Web Interface for it to work.
The buildin video stream player worked out of the box with my home NAS. I can stream 720p avi's over wifi. All I needed was ES File Explorer for access to NAS.
That is using standard UPnP protocols I think, so it should work with your windows media centre. You will have to enable sharing of your files and actually point the WMC to the folders that you want to share.
Try it and report back,
rio
PS: if you have lots of MKV files, I'm still looking for streaming options...
Thanks for the info, using es explorer did just what i needed, it does play choppy like you said but i think its to do with the player and not with the connection. I am able to play high quality blu ray files 10-20gb but its even more slower so will need to find a better video player i would say...
Whats the best video player out there ??
we need vlc for android
Hi,
I'm having a pretty strange problem with MX Player Pro and .mkv-files (AVC/H264) with subtitles. I tried streaming them over DLNA recently which does work fine on my Samsung TV but not on my Android device (Sony Xperia Z3 Compact) or to be precise it does work but only without HW-decoding (or HW+ even). But when I remove the subtitle file from the folder and then stream the file, HW+-decoding works like a charm. It also works even WITH subtitles and HW-decoding when playing the file locally. So I just don't see what the problem is here. Not even sure this problem is related to MX Player at all but i figured i gotta start asking somewhere so here i am. Btw I'm using Serviio (latest version) to stream from my Windows computer.

Similar problem here. I have the movie Go encoded using Handbrake to mp4 without subtitles (go.mp4) and also encoded mkv with subtitles (go.mkv), served from my Win 8 machine over the local network. MX Player on my android phone can play the mp4 encoding fine as a network stream, but not the .mkv file (MX Player simply reports "Can't play this link").
Hi, I have an issue with MX Player on Android 9, LG G6 phone when trying to view files recorded by Panasonic TX-65HX820E.
I use BubbleUPnP (or DMS Explorer with the same result) to find the files but when I open a file there's a message in MX Player 'Can't play this link'.
I've found that using BubbleUPnP browser the VCL Player on Android can open files recorded by my TV but it can't seek inside files.
Also MX Player can open other files hosted by my TV by in MP4 format.
Example link to file shown by BubbleUPnP:
http://192.168.0.140:7501/VIDEO-He883dbe09a3b09d4ccbb3458c1e25d7e3d3cad7fb89ea28b85a8dc9edd83bdfd-7400447536a710edbe2de2277af0f64f00000013
File is downloaded on my phone without extension. But when I change extension to mp4 or avi it can be opened by MX Player correctly.
MX Player in information shows that media format is MPEG-TS (MPEG-2 Transport steam). VLC shows that codec is H264-MPEG-4 AVC (part 10).
Example link to the same file on Windows Media Player:
http://192.168.0.140:7501/VIDEO-He883dbe09a3b09d4ccbb3458c1e25d7e3d3cad7fb89ea28b85a8dc9edd83bdfd-7400447536a710edbe2de2277af0f64f00000013?WMContentFeatures=DLNA.ORG_OP=10;DLNA.ORG_CI=0;DLNA.ORG_FLAGS=01100000000000000000000000000000&WMHME=1&HMEExt=.tts&WMDuration=14940000000&WMHMETitle=SwBsAHUAYgAgAHAAcgB6AHkAagBhAGMAaQDzAEIBIABNAHkAcwB6AGsAaQAgAE0AaQBrAGkA
And on Windows the file is downloaded with tts extension.
I think that the problem is that the files recorded by my TV doesn't have any extension and MX Player doesn't recognize them correctly.
Is there some workaround in MX Player settings to handle it or it could be fixed in the code?
