Hi
I like to watch Anime on my phone and MX Player works great for that, so first of all thanks to the devs.
Now there's only one little thing that is bothering me: a lot of sub groups use styled subtitles, which MX player can play fine, but for some reason they only update every second or so, while on my PC they play smoothly.
So i wanted to ask if there's a way to make the subs update faster, or make them play smoother?
Thx.
I dont know if this could work but you can try.
Settings>subtitles>h/w acceleration.
Let us know the results

It should be there

But I can't notice any changes on heavy animated subtiles when enabling/disabling it (it was turned on, probably by default).
Probably subtitle renderer is single-threaded and have no buffering, so text updates as fast as it could be rendered in realtime.
The subtitles are updated every half a second or so. However, if you pinch in and out quickly (zoom in and out), you can see that the subtitles are rendered as fast as possible.

Is there any way of changing the update speed?
The issue of subtitle .ssa "styled subtitles" performance has to do with the fact that MX Player currently uses libass, which isn't the greatest option for decoding .ssa subs. The developer is working on an alternate framework... but that will take time as he has to build a lot of it on his own, instead of borrowing from something existing such as libass.
Or maybe a buffer mechanism may solve this issue?

1.8.x beta version will be better in;
1. Updating frequency increase.
2. Real-time rendering option introduced on Playback screen > Menu > Subtitle > Settings > Text > Improve SSA rendering, even though it will be effective only with SW decoder.
Beta version can be found on; https://sites.google.com/site/mxvpen/translation/test-build

only fix i know is to switch to rgb32 , 16 doesn't solve this
and on my xperia z3 , no roms , 4 months old it runs slow , with cores up to 4 and it sucks to keep changing the color format depending on what i'm watching
RGB32 is the superior format in terms of picture quality. Based on how the colourspace is defined in the hi10 profile, it's expected that artefacts may occur on YUV and RGB16; I don't think that anything can be done about this...
It is true that RGB32 is more processor intensive; unfortunately nothing can be done about that.
It looks like artifacts from some HW/HW+ decoder.
Please try SW decoder if HW/HW+ was used.
It was with s/w , cant run it with h/w
I dont mean anything bad really but other video players with yuv ran good -no artifacts- with the same fps
-But they're audio was far inferior quality and loudness also the 200% boost so..-
Is this something to be fixed in future updates or by custom codecs or something?
Thanks for the replies

Sometimes when I try to get subtitle online from MX player of any movie or anything, it appears in the screen than "You don't have permission to perform this action on opensubtitle.org." I don't what wrong I did with opensubtitle.org
But a restart solves this issue for a time. But it again comes back. I am a big fan of the feature "get subtitle online" and I use that very often. But this problem is making be feel very uncomfortable.

I mailed the developers about the bug. But they didn't reply. I am using MX player Pro 1.8.3 in HTC Desire Eye with Android 6.

In Search UI, tap on opensubtitles.org. You will get a new option to login. Number of searches may be limited without log in to opensubtitles.org. Probably a limitations from opensubtitle API.

Thanks mate!
Hi. I bought a Mini M8S II TV BOX with Amlogic S905X CPU and Mali-450 GPU. Then I installed MX Player Pro from Play Market. I tried different decoding modes .
Sound output is hdmi passthrough or spdif.
In HW+ mode sound output is stereo only. The picture is excellent.
In HW mode sound output is normally 5.1. But the picture has problem. There are ghost images from all moving objects.
Examples:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The reason why HW+ can't do 5.1 passthrough is likely due to proprietary drivers than MX can't access. It works on HW as HW calls the system to do the decode, whereas HW+ uses MX's own logic to do so (and therefore no access to the proprietary SPDIF passthrough). As to whether it can be fixed, I'll leave to someone else to answer.
Thanks for the answer!
But what could be reason for ghost images in hw mode?

HW mode is based on the android native media player api. MX Player have very basic controls over it. In General anything on HW is basically from your ROM. It seems to be a bug on your ROM.

Kindly read my reply just above your post.
In General most of the issues with HW decoder will be from the system. Try HW+ or SW. It may work better.
Kindly share some screenshots & bug report from MX Player whenever you report an issue.

Hey
Is it possible to change the position of the subtitles? Lower. Like -1, -2 etc

Hi,
Have you checked the subtitle bottom margin option on MX Player settings > Subtitles > layout? It will help you to move the subtitle text to the bottom-most position.
PS: Please note that some advanced subtitle formats like SSA (aks, ASS) allows the subtitle makers to predefine the subtitle positions on the screen. So, this setting will not affect such subtitles.
@MXPlayer @USBhost @CDB-Man @Thirumalai.K
This bug is still present, even when we put the bottom margin on 0!
On nPlayer with these settings:
Movie from pictures:

Exactly!
We need more options for the bottom margin - value: -10 or -20

I wanted to open a thread about this, but I might as well just post here.
I have the same issue.
That is with PGS. SRT is adjustable just fine.

still not able to put subtitles in the lowest position in android tv with mx player. Not even with mouse. What a pitty. NOVA is good but it lacks stability for huge libraries so mx player is the way to go, but that subtitle positioning is making me crazy.
Hi, dev mx player not working on android 11.when i open the player a pop up message shows due to some internal changes the app will not work.

Is it working now? Anxious to try out the Public Beta, but use MX daily and don't want to lose access to it!
everything is now working fine after the latest update. I'm currently on Beta 1. The best video player for Android is back!
Which version are you using? My mx player isn't showing the video files. But will play when I click on them in my file app. Version 1.24.5 (ARMv8 NEON

Android 11 brings some breaking changes that may prevent third-party apps from accessing the complete internal/external storage. So, it may break the exiting media scanning routines. Could you collect a bug report from the help menu quickly after refreshing the file list and share with us? It will help us to understand the issues better.
