Some older Android versions or specific devices may have trouble reading the codec file while it is still in ZIP format. If the player cannot find the file after you select it, try extracting (unzipping) the codec file and placing the resulting .so file (e.g., libffmpeg.mx.so.neon64.1.49.0 ) in a folder where MX Player can access it.
This is where you define the feature. For ARMv8 Neon , you must target aarch64 and enable Neon optimizations.
Download the specific file named mx_neon64.zip (which corresponds to ARMv8 64-bit NEON) or download the zip file ( mx_aio.zip ). Note: Do not unzip or extract the downloaded archive. Leave it as a .zip file. Step 3: Load the Codec into MX Player
