MX Video Player: best AVI/MKV player for Android

October 24th, 2011 Leave a comment Go to comments

Recently I tested several video players on Asus Transformer tablet. From my past experience, the most demanding task is playback of MKV file, so I tried to play 720p video with 2 audio stream and 2 subtitles.

The winner is MX Video Player, which was able to use hardware acceleration for smooth video playback and allows to switch audio streams and subtitles on-the-fly. Interface is good with native Honeycomb support. Swiping on different areas of the screen will ajust volume, brightness and playback position. Zoom video as you like with multi-touch. MX Video Player also keeps watch time and position for all files, and you can manually mark any file as finished.

    MX Player is great. It can use both the cores of a dual core device. What is your opinion about mVideoPlayer HD ?

  • Baner

    Yes Mx player is the best, however, it still lags with 1080 and 720 p MKV files. Haven't found a suitable player yet

    Can anyone tell how to stream from pc to htc one x using mx player?

      Try BSPlayer, it can play videos from shared folders on PC. Or Plex, which requires server app, but can show info about movies, etc..

    MX player is great but when I try to play .mkv files that are 1080p on my GAlaxy s2 it lags extremely bad with the video but the audio works fine. Is this normal, or did i somehow mess up my phone?

      Hmm 1080p not really noticeable unless you have 70 and above inch TV. Rips are just fine at 720p IMO.
