Beta video player
MX Player Beta is a multimedia application from MX Media. As the name suggests, it is the beta version of the popular mobile video player. With this tool, you can easily enjoy any media content straight from your phone. The app offers the same features as the previous versions but with additions, such as pinch-to-zoom and in-app YouTube browsing. It also has advanced video acceleration, so you can enjoy watching videos without lags.
Better media playing
MX Player Beta is very easy to use. The app loads all the videos stored on your device upon launching, so you can easily stream them at once. What’s more, the app supports all video formats. It can even read and edit subtitles in SSA/ASS, SRT, TXT, and VTT file extensions. What users would love the most about this version is its acceleration system, which can eliminate annoying lags in playing videos.
On top of the new HW + decoder for hardware acceleration, the app also accepts many gestures for easy control action. You can pinch your screen to zoom in on an area and expand to zoom out. You can also swipe across the screen to pan and tap anywhere to play or pause. In addition to the video, you can also use the gesture system to manage the subtitles.
Since it is a free app, MX Player Beta is ad-supported. You cannot skip these ads, which can be a bit annoying if you are streaming movies. You can remove these interruptions if you subscribe to the pro version. Aside from the ads, you may also find the constant asking of permission tedious. The app asks for permission for just about everything. However, you need to go through with it since the installer will have trouble loading all the right functions if you refuse to give permissions.
Still worth a try
The MX Player Beta is almost a complete version of the mobile video player. The app, with its many parameters, lets you interact and view the videos stored on your device regardless of the format. More, it has advanced features to make the playback smoother and simpler. It requires many permissions for it to perform faster, but, all in all, it is still worth downloading.
