MX Player Updated To v1.7, Brings Background Playback, Improved Software Decoding On Tegra 3 Devices, And More
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.
Added 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.
