Hy,
I use mx player in a web application (php based) in Chrome on android;
My link is like this
<a h r e f="intent:h ttp://aaa.bbb/playlist.m3u8#Intent;package=com.mxtech.videoplayer.pro;S.title=Live+TV;end;">Live TV</a>
I use defalut HW+ , but I need to change for some links to HW.
I read here sites.google.com/site/mxvpen/api[/
[Action: android.intent.action.VIEW]
Data:
Uri pointing to a media source.
Extras:
(All extras are optional)
decode_mode
Type: byte
Values: 1 - HW decoder 2 - SW decoder

Just Try the following method for HW decoder.
HTML:
Live TV
You can use "2" for SW & "4" for HW+.
On older android devices, If HW+ is not enabled, It may switch to the next decoder (i.e SW)

If is no more, another question. How can I send custom header (in special referer and cookies).
Thank you again, you make my day very happy!

MX Player uses String Array for Headers. Unfortunately, There is no way to pass the string array from the web page.

Sorry for resurrecting the topic, but I'm afraid that's the only mention of this on all the internet...
But four years later, still is there no way to pass headers by Intent URL scheme?
I wish there was some string fallback, something like S.headers='Origin%3Ahttps%3A%2F%2Fexample.com&Referer%3Ahttps%3A%2F%2Fexample.com%2Findex'
Wouldn't it be possible?
Thank you for this awesome app! Best regards.

Is there a way I can save and play network stream URLs by name without entering the URLs in the network stream box with the keyboard any time?
Thanks!
Not from within MX Player but you may try using a file explorer to save the URLs in a folder.

I was searching for an add-on or plugin for MX Player by way of trying to find a frontend to accomplish the same thing. I guess I was wishful thinking. Nevertheless, here's a link (replace the two $ signs with dots) to, copy and paste, of a post I made this morning providing a potentially extremely useful alternative: forums.androidcentral$com/samsung-galaxy-note-3/355922-how-can-i-save-network-streams-name-mx-player$html

Please consider implementing user adjustable settings for parameters related to streaming content such as cache size, buffer size, seconds to wait for connection time out, etc. The Android app from team48dreams has an internet radio section that can, handle pls, m3u, asf and perhaps other playlist formats for streaming media, for example.
thats would be really great - I miss this feature - thats the only reason why I use still VPlayer...

Please, change the HTTP User-Agent to something less malware-like than a space.
MX Player would be fine or maybe just Linux/Android for some obscurity.
This could be easily done and it would prevent us getting blocked by some sites/CDNs and even false IDS alerts.

MX Player uses Linux/Android style and MX Player/<version> style user agent.
But ads network may use different value. I will check it out.
Thanks

I don't think it's the ads network:
Code:
GET./480p/{file}.mp4.HTTP/1.1
.User-Agent:.
.Accept:.*/*
.Range:.bytes=36151293-
.Connection:.close
.Host:.{domain}
.Icy-MetaData:.1
I tap on a video link in the browser and open it in MX Player, so I'm not starting anything directly.
Also I don't think Chrome proxies the request (like ES File Exp.) but even if it does it would use it's own UA.
Thanks.

Hi everyone,
I am watching some streams which require custom http-user-agent. On Windows, using VLC I simply add http URL and with parameter ":http-user-agent=something" (without quotes) and it works. However I couldn't find this option in MX Player -neither on any other player-. Is that even possible?
Thanks

A new option will be added under Settings > General > Http user agent for overriding default user agent.
That would be great ! Thank you very much!

Hi,
I'm having troubles using the stock JB Android 4.1.2 play m3u8 live streaming. Issue described in:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26181554/stock-android-h264-decoder-failing-on-m3u8-url-files
After some debugging, seems to me that only the "baseline profile" is supported by the stock SW codec (frameworks/av/media/libstagefright/codecs/on2/h264dec), while the stream has the entropy_coding_mode_flag set (i.e. it is a CABAC encoding - I'm not an expert about H264, but I read it's a rather different encoding scheme).
So, I was wondering if it was ever possible to entirely replace the libstagefright/codecs provided with stock AOSP with the SW codecs of MX Player, which seems to be working fine on the same m3u8 stream.s.
Any idea if ever feasble and, if so, about how to proceed?
thanks
Fabio

E.g. I was thinking if that was possible by simply hacking the codec declarations in
device/.../.../media_codecs.xml
or if a more complex code integration in AOSP is required. Note - I can rebuild AOSP for my device.
Any advice welcome, anyway.
I think its not only a matter of software, hardware must supports it.

Even if you declare, if it's not supported by your gpu then it will simply through a error.
Mx player uses the hardware decoders included with your system. If it's not supported ffmpeg is used. But, it will use the cpu to decode the video.
So, there won't be much benefits.

I know.... actually, I didn't know ffmpeg was the underlying SW decoder.
I'm afraid my HW GPU doesn't support H264 coded in CABAC. while it does decode seamlessly CAVLC (two flavors of H264 encoding... I found out.).
There will be a benefit in having SW codec, so - at least screen doesn't blank out
I noticed it takes 30-35% CPU while using SW MX Player on those streams. Still acceptable (I don't think GPU will use greatly less power). Final quality is definitely OK.
Any suggestion about how to proceed with ffmpeg codec integration in AOSP? What are the main integration points to consider?
thanks

I'd just like to note that generally, GPU rendering reduces power consumption dramatically. For example, a SW rendered 30min video will use 25% of battery life on a Nexus 5. The same video reencoded to a GPU-supported codec will use closer to 10% battery.

I'm working on the porting of the above to my AOSP, but found issues with the integration.. There's something not going well with picture quality. Still debugging (https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/android-x86/mTnTe39D5Co).
Meanwhile, let me ask here whether there's any documentation, about how to access access the MPlayer SW codecs from other apps, or AOSP libstagefright.
thanks

FYI
Mx player is free can be distributed with rom without any modifications.

You can call mx player free/pro through the api

Almost always I have to specify subtitles delay -0.2sec manually which is cumbersome, because there's nothing wrong with the files being played when I view them on PC.
So I thought it'd be good to have an option to specify a global subtitle delay - maybe a checkbox in the subtitle panel to remember the current delay.
From FAQ:
Sync of every subtitles does not match by a few seconds with h/w decoder.
H/W decoder of some devices has timing issues. It is known to be happening on many AMLogic based devices. H/W decoder timing can be adjusted on Settings > Decoder > Calibrate playback position.

I have 0.2 there, so my offset matches yours... interesting.
Thank you but it doesn't help on my device (thl5000)!
Anyway my suggestion can still be helpful in not so rare cases of mistimed subtitles, mostly external, where 1sec delays aren't uncommon.

bleu8888, thanks but that method was already mentioned by vivan000 in the above post, however it doesn't work for me as I said. And I'll repeat myself: the suggestion is useful even if there are no problems with h/w+ sync.
