How To Install MX Player on a Smart TV

Here's a quick look at how to get MX Player working on your smart TV:

• Android TV and Google TV models let you install MX Player directly from the Google Play Store.
• Other TVs need an APK file, screen mirroring, or a streaming device instead.
• A stable connection, updated software, and checking compatibility beforehand help the installation go smoothly.

You can also buy a new smart TV on Easy EMIs at over 1.5 lakh+ partner stores across 4,000+ cities, including Reliance Digital, Croma, and Vijay Sales. Check your loan eligibility online in minutes so you know exactly what you can get before you step into the store.

MX Player is a free media player app that lets you stream online content and play videos stored on your device. It supports a wide range of video formats, subtitles, and multiple audio tracks, along with features like playback speed control and resume support. This page covers how to install MX Player on your smart TV, fix common issues, use its features, and choose a TV that works well with it.

You can buy a smart TV through Easy EMIs when your preferred model is eligible and available at a partner store, making it simple to upgrade without paying the full amount upfront. Here is what the process looks like.

• Visit more than 1.5 lakh+ partner stores across 4,000+ cities, including Jaipur, Lucknow, Kochi, and Bhopal
• Choose your preferred model and use the Bajaj Finance Insta EMI Card or Easy EMI Loan
• Convert the purchase cost into Easy EMIs that suit your monthly budget

➜ Pro tip: Zero down payment is available on select models, so ask the store executive if your chosen smart TV qualifies before you check out.

You can install MX Player on your smart TV in several ways, depending on your TV's operating system and app support. Android TV and Google TV models allow direct installation, while other TVs need an alternative method.

• Google Play Store: Search for MX Player on Android TV or Google TV, select it, and install within minutes.
• APK file: If MX Player isn't on the Play Store, some Android-based TVs let you install it via APK once you enable installation from unknown sources.
• Screen mirroring or casting: Stream MX Player from your phone or tablet to a compatible TV using built-in casting or mirroring.
• Streaming device: A Chromecast, Fire TV Stick, or Android TV box lets you use MX Player even if your TV's own system doesn't support it.

• Check compatibility first: TVs running webOS or Tizen, like most LG and Samsung models, don't support direct MX Player installation, so confirm before you begin.

If MX Player won't install or keeps freezing, the cause is usually your internet connection, TV software, storage space, or app compatibility. Working through these checks should fix it quickly.

• Check your internet connection: A slow or unstable Wi-Fi can interrupt downloads or stop MX Player from opening.
• Restart your TV: This refreshes the operating system and often fixes temporary installation or playback issues.
• Update your TV software: The latest version improves app compatibility and fixes known bugs.
• Free up storage: Low storage can stop MX Player from downloading or updating, so remove unused apps or files.
• Clear the app cache: If MX Player freezes or crashes, clearing its cache can improve performance on compatible TVs.
• Reinstall the app: Uninstalling and reinstalling the latest version can fix corrupted files or incomplete installs.

Most MX Player issues clear up with these checks, and keeping your TV software and the app updated helps prevent problems in future.

➜ Pro tip: If MX Player still won't install after trying these fixes, a streaming device like a Fire TV Stick or Chromecast is often the quickest workaround, since it bypasses your TV's built-in software entirely.

Once MX Player is installed, you can use it to play locally stored videos, stream supported content, and manage your media library on your smart TV. A few built-in features make this easier.

• Open the app: Launch MX Player from your TV's app menu once installation is complete.
• Grant permissions: Allow storage and media access if prompted, so MX Player can detect and organise your video files.
• Browse and play local media: Navigate folders on your TV or connected USB drives and external hard disks to play supported video formats.
• Adjust playback settings: Change subtitles, audio tracks, and playback speed to suit how you watch.
• Resume where you left off: MX Player remembers your progress, so you can pick up a video from where you stopped.
• Keep it updated: Installing the latest version improves compatibility, adds new features, and fixes performance issues.

Getting familiar with these controls makes MX Player easier to use day to day, and keeping both your TV software and the app updated helps playback stay smooth.

Here are three Google TV models that support direct MX Player installation, across different budgets.
