Thanks for the reply. I tried it out and it reloads xbmc after closing mxplayer. Is there anyway to bring you back to where you were before you played the video?
Appreciate the help.

The XBMCANDROID.com Team Presents...
THE FIRST END USER FRIENDLY RELEASE OF XBMC FOR ANDROID
This release is basically the first end user friendly version of XBMC for Android that should work great on pretty much any Android powered device. Since XBMC still doesn't support hardware accelerated video decoding on most devices, support for an external video player is included in this release, that way you'll still be able to enjoy a flawless XBMC experience since the external video player itself does support hardware accelerated video decoding.
You'll also find that a bunch of customizations have been made in order to make the whole XBMC experience more enjoyable for the end user, including shortcuts, the ability to use XBMC as a Launcher (and launch Android Apps & Settings from within XBMC), along with many of the most popular XBMC addons bundled directly into the release.
Hopefully this will change the public perception of XBMC just being a media player, and most people will realize that it's much more: a media platform that interfaces with online streaming video content, bringing online streaming technology directly to your favourite devices in an easy to navigate system with endless possibilities.

How do I find out if my phone is a Neon or non neon device????
I have the Motorola Razr i xt890
Please let me know as I've been waiting for XBMC to come to android for many years.
Hopefully it works with my device and many thanks keep up the great work :0)
Try the NEON version and if throws an incompatible device notice, use the non-neon version.
You can also use mount manager from the market as well. I have been digging into getting MX Player working with SMB but I have met with little success. I did discover it seemed MX Player needed files from samba presented as an HTTP stream but I've not had a chance to dig into how to implement this functionality properly. Any suggestions?
You could ask developers of BSPlayer (lan mode) or the developers of many file managers which present the http stream : total commander, fx file explorer, solid explorer, es file explorer.

Freeze/uninstall any task managers. XBMC eats cpu / ram and most task killers have a habit of killing xbmc while MX Player has been active for awhile. I believe there is an option under developer options that will allow you to "Keep background processes" or similar which will prevent the normal android task clean up from running aggressively.
