MX Player App

[Mary Blair]

What is the difference between MX Player and MX Player PRO ??

No ads in the pro version

And your supporting the dev, gotta eat sometimes ah?

Pro versions plays more codecs. That's why I paid.

 

[JAy3001]

Mm, not that I'm aware of, Pro is identical to the free version less the ads.

 

[dontpanicbobby]

I've been wrong before.

 

[dontpanicbobby]

I think I've found a article that explains MX Player Pro for Android's superiority to the free version but it's 5 years old and I don't think we had multicores back in the PPC days...

 

[JAy3001]

Oh, didn't see any mention of the superior features compared to the free version. But it's a mute point really as it is the go to app for video playback.

I guess you like that swirly thing while you wait for the video to load @JAy3001?

I used the free version of MX Player for a while and have been using the Pro version for years now. Never encountered any issues with codec support between the free or the Pro versions, it was always just an ad issue.

Swirly thing? Not noticed one tbh @dontpanicbobby

Buffering. No buffering in the Pro version. The free version buffers every now and then.

MX player is filled with trackers / spyware which no license will get rid of. If you want a clean program tha asks for no payment and has no trackers then I would suggest VLC https://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-android.html

You can even download the apk directly on that page wihout vising the Google Spyware Store

Unless you have really specialist needs and don't care about infested apps...VLC will be all you need.

Yeah i saw that too. I rip my own stuff. Does not apply to ripped physical media.
