Can you please give us an option to hide the video zoom button in the lower right corner, as I never use it, since you should watch the video at the resolution it's supposed to be in.
Also can you create an API for when you press search subtitles it will take that title/year and search for it in opensubtitles.org to give you the best results. Instead of just going off filename. Give us the api option for our app to send you the title/year info to then send to open subtitles.
On another note, give us an option for subtitle preferred "Forced"
Thanks alot! The player would be perfect after these options are added.

Thanks for your valuable suggestions. MXPlayer already provides an option to enter your own keywords while searching for subtitles. Have you tried the same?
With regards to your request on forced subtitles, would you mind elaborating more so that we can share your concerns with our relevant team for further review?

I know you can enter your own, but it would be nice if you had an API for developers to send the movie/year to that field so it automatically search for that instead of depending on the filename.
Forced subtitles are mainly for English films or tv that contain a few forced subtitles that can be like some small Spanish parts or elvish from Lord of the rings for example. They are mainly called Forced or English Forced. Right now you give us the option to choose our subtitles that automatically are picked, but there is no option for Forced, just English. I don't want to have subtitles for the whole movie I just want them for the portion where the language they are speaking isn't English.
But can you please give us an option in settings to hide the zoom button on the bottom right of the player. It would make the player perfect for me and others..
Also can you give us an option to disable the up and down function on the player. Like the volume or brightness. I don't use either of those as I use the app on my TV, I accidently turn down the volume all the time.
Thanks!

Thanks for the support.
I feel they just need to make a few tweaks here and there and the player will be perfect.
Simplicity is key.

Yeah! For me it is only two small things before it’s perfect:
1. The video scaling button should be removable to prevent accidents (we always want it on”scale to fit” and won’t ever use that button).

Yeah those are both good suggestions.
I'd like the ability to turn off the up and down function, since I don't even need to change brightness and I change the volume from my remote volume buttons . So having the option to disable that would be great.
Oh yes I agree. I constantly change mx volume by accident. Disabling the up/down action would give me peace of mind.

Thanks for sharing your concerns.
You will be pleased to know that MX Player already has the options for you.
Request you to open MX Player Settings > Player > Controls and you will find the options to disable the gestures you do not use often.

That's for touch devices only. We are strictly talking about remote navigation. Theirs no setting to disable volume/brightness up and down with remote.

Pan on Note 10.1
Please add to the bug list the pan problem on Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1, detailed in https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mx-videoplayer/svXy0vhIUOQ
Hello, thanks for this great app.
I wanted to request something I think is a great feature, but then I was happy to see it already in the high priority list.
Popup Player: https://groups.google.com/d/topic/mx-videoplayer/ws_voRX-MVc/discussion
But then I looked at the original thread and it dates back 2 years. Is there any word on development of this?
I see so many video apps successfully implement this and it seems to work wonderfully well for playing local files as well as streaming. For stress testing I even tried out large video files and heavy streams while loading up heavy apps and games and I never noticed lag or stutter, on my first generation nexus 7.
MX Player has always been my favorite android player since my nexus one, 4 years ago until today. And I would love to keep supporting it but I'm now downloading other players when I need floating video.
So I hope for some good news on development of this great feature, thanks!

auto resume on startup
Hi
This player is awesome.
Here a feature needed for android car radio. Android car player are more and more popular, a nice feature would be an option when we start the player, the last played file start automatically on resume, like a normal car cd player do. (no need to start the application automatically, there is already an application for that).
Because each time the car is turned off, all applications are stopped by the android system. of course, if you use the integrated player it resume automatically, but it does not play all format and the interface is not good enough.
Thanks!
Cedric
@AlbertAS and @xenyz please make a new forum thread for your feature requests, then link that thread here, so that it can be added to the list. With a thread for your specific request, it is easier to keep track of each item.

This is a great video player indeed, but as a car stereo app it's not ideal I'd say.. cause that's not its main purpose.
In my car I've been using PowerAmp for over 4 years now, it works great with everything you need from auto resuming to lockscreen controls etc. PowerAmp was one of the first apps to integrate all these things and still does it best imo. Although many other players have adopted the same functions.

Hi, i bought your app and it's fantastic but i have some suggest.
1) We display the last watched movie and finished movies in*different color.
Would be nice to enable or disable it or set the colors.
2) When i close the app and it keep going play audio if i go on the notification panel i can pause and play, go to next video or close the app.
Would be nice go to previous video too.
3) I open the app, i choose a video and i play it. I go back to the list and i have 3 button on top: refresh, play and search.
If i want to stop the video i have to press the play button (it take you to the video) and stop from there.
Would be nice if the play button would pause and play the video and create a new button than take you back to the video.
4) I use your player to play video music in car.
Would be nice slide next or previous video by air gesture (just moving my hand left or right above sensor of my Samsung S4 in landscape and portrait mode).
Thank you
Regarding #4, since that's a feature of the Samsung TouchWiz launcher, I don't think it can be included in external non-Samsung apps.

Yes it can:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2351974
And others 3 points?
I definitely don't think the developer would develop Air gestures directly into the app; that's just asking too much of him. In terms of making it somehow compatible with that Hovering Controls app, I don't know if that's possible and will let the developer answer.
The other 3 points, up to the developer. I'm just commenting on point #4 as it's the least straight-forward. @bleu8888
Hi,
1. It will be improved on MX 2.0
2. It is already possible if you switch screen to portait mode. Let me think about changing UI to show "previous button" even on landscape screen.
3. Let me think about this option.
4. Let me try it. If it works, it will be supported on MX 2.0
Thanks

How about a feature that we can control MX Player with another android, with an app or a web interface with play, volume, etc. buttons.
I use a Droid X2 connected to my TV and I wish I could control playback with my other phones.

All your requests are already on the feature requests list. Stop repeating the same requests over and over again; we're all already aware of them all.
Only post if you have a NEW request or bug.
Even as an 5+ years' MX Player Pro user, I still struggle with the limited options available for the end of video behaviour, which are:
(a) return to the media list, or
(b) run into the next unrelated video(*).
They go well along with media junky habits. However, both options feel awkward if you want a smooth, immersive, zero distraction experience, watching nothing but this one deeply moving masterpeace, today.
There definitely should be an option that
(c) simply halts playback at the end, showing a still image of the last frame
- just as you see a still image of the first frame at the beginning, i. e. before starting playback.
I'm stunned that apparently, this natural preference is neither considered nor discussed (publicly). I would greatly appreciate if it was implented!
Thank you!
(*) with or without having to anwer a popup question
(note: I've made a similar post to the FAQ thread, it didn't get blessed with an answer.)
It's a trip no one has responded to this. I have exactly this same wish. Every other video player I've used has an option to simply stop the video at the end or repeat it. MX Play has neither option. Don't
know why.

Thanks for your valuable comments. We would like to let you know that MX Player already has the option to loop the current file. Request you to enable the loop one function from the quick shortcuts on the screen or from the play menu.
With regards to stopping it on the last frame, we regret to inform you that it is not prioritised as we found it useless in most of the common use cases and will unnecessarily keep the decoder component active. However, you can enable the "back to list option" to close the player and return to file list on completion of the playback.
Trying to get used to this app and just can't do it. As far as I can tell this app wants you to do everything within the app like start a movie for example. It doesn't work as well when starting a video from outside the app. For example clicking on a movie from say the Gallery app. After playing a video, I want it to return to the app I came from but mxplayer wants to return to it's own videos list. I have tried to get a refund but the option is no longer there in the Google Play Store. I have uninstalled this app. Can I get a refund?
Edit: Never mind, got a refund. I'm good.
