MX player is the best.

MX player use to be the best until it stopped supporting some codecs. Try playing a movie with the following audio codecs; AC3, MLP, DTS or Dolby and see that u won't get any audio. Though there are some walkarounds but it became complicated and u need to pay to get it support some codecs. VLC player is the best right now and it supports virtually all codecs.

There's a customised codec zip file to watch those file formats. You don't need to pay for anything. MX player still stands out amongst all android video players.

I use to be a very big fan of mx player and it worked fine until I downloaded a movie from another website different from the one I normally use. The movie had an ac3 audio codec, played it on mx player and there was no audio. I was like Wtf, I almost deleted the movie but then I played it on my laptop and it worked fine. So I downloaded vlc player and dang it worked fine. Vlc player has everything mx player has including ability to add subtitle.

MX player actually plays subtitle.
-download the subtitle and move to the same folder as your movie
-rename it to the exact name of the movie ,e.g if the movie name is ''Ride-Along-1.mp4", the subtitle should be "Ride-Along-1.srt"
then open ur MX player it should play with subtitle

vlc got 10 million download on playstore
vlc beta gots 50million downloads on playstore ,that's a total of 60million downloads


MX player alone got 100 million downloads (I didn't check the pro), in my opinion MX player should top the list.
but I don't understand the playback feature ( thot videos would play from the last to the beginning?)

cool
