MX has always been a pretty impressive video player - it's chocked full of useful features and offers nearly every codec imaginable. Today, it received an update to v1.7 that brings a fair amount of performance improvements for various devices, as well as one really neat key feature: background playback.
Changelog:
- Stabilized S/W decoder on Tegra 3 devices such as ASUS Transformer Prime, HTC One X, Nexus 7.
- A dded new hardware decoder named H/W+. (However, H/W+ decoder is available only on limited devices)
- Added support for x86 CPU.
- Added background play. (long presss play button)
- Added supprot for custom FFmpeg build.
- Added fast scrollbar on the video list screen.
- Added fast seek option to improve seeking speed with h/w+ and s/w decoder.
- Improved a/v sync with S/W decoder.
Background video playback is something that I've often wished for on Android - just because I need to reply to a text or quickly check an email is no reason why my video shouldn't continue playing until I get back to it. This, along with the other enhancements, is welcome indeed.
