You need to go to the app it's using in the application manager, then scroll down and hit "clear defaults". Then the next time it will have the pop up box.
I want to know if there is way to change main video player of media center.Iwant subtitule with it.
When you download a new video app and select the video you want played, you are prompted with a popup asking what app you want to open the file with a tickbox for "default".
thanks for answer but it becomes default if you play movie on atrix screen not on entertaintment center with hdmi cable.
So I have MX Video player installed and where I could I set it as the default video app player. However when in the standard browser or even in Chrome browser when clicking a video it still plays using the native video player on the GS4. I downloaded a tool to tell me what all of my defaults are and I cannot find anything else so I'm lost at the moment. Is there a way to override the "built-in" video player when in a browser so I can use MX instead? I am unrooted, stock on the Verizon GS4 16GB and have the ME7 update installed via Kies. TIA for any help.
Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

Just took the DMI1 update and still I cannot get MX to be the default video player for some websites. Anyone know a way to disable the built-in video player that launches by default? What's the app's name and location and can I disable it? Thanks.
Settings, More, Apps, All, find Video Player. In the Video Player App Info page scroll down and tap Clear Defaults.
Now you'll be prompted next time you open a video asking which player to use.

Yeah, I checked that a long time ago. Both Video and Video Player, the purple circle with white triangle are not showing as default - they are both greyed out. That's what is so strange about this. Can't put my finger on it.
I went to apps, show all apps incl. system and searched for 'player' then I'd found some unknown player (can't recall its name); I'd uninstalled it and videos played well back again from Telegram. Weird.
Hey guys,
my question is How to change default video player. I really need to change it beacuse that video player cant open all of the formats, so I can't open snapchat videos. Basically i just want to make snapchat videos work on my phone. Every time when i want to open snapchat videos i get : 'Can't play this video'. So i thought it's video player problem, but even if i got MX Player installed (or other vid players, i tried many of them) i can't open videos on snapchat. Maybe if I could change default video player or disable that LG video player snapchat would use MX Player instead.
Try Default App Manager Lite application. It should help you setting the default app used per file type.
Where is the Video App on this phone so I can put it on my main screen instead of having to go through file manager to find a video then open it then choose the video app?
