I know that those are windows media players. But Your question was not clear to me.

Most of the android audio processing apps can interrupt the audio signal & output the processed audio through speaker / headphone. If you have inbuilt audio dsp plugins then by default it will be passed through them. If you are not then there are lot of dsp engines available in playstore. In my experience experience Noozxoide (tried both E & rewire Pro) output is better than others in non rooted mobiles.

Unlike windows full access to system files is not allowed by default. So, if you need better audio filters you have to be rooted.

If you have a rooted device, then try ViPER4android. It has lot of features like IRS support, headphone correction filters, virtual headphone sourrend sound, bass boost, etc. There are lot of IRS (Impulse response samples) available to create different audio effects.

Please read the instructions before asking something...!!!

In the first point you will get the answer for your question
[MX Player] george brown:
Every time I play webm and enable hardware+ the sound suddenly loss. The only way to get the sound back is by restarting my device.
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
What about SW mode?
[MX Player] george brown:
SW mode is okay but I just wanna try Hardware+.
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
HW+ mode is not compatible with all device.

I want to ask you

Just check the download instructions which is posted in the second post.

I downloaded this codec Arm v7-Neon, but there is no use. Can you tell me which codec is used for playing Video with DTS audio supported file.
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Read the instructions in the second post
[MX Player] implodingspace:
scared tha5 this may sound noobish lol ...

?...but I have been less active in dev community

I had a video I lost but found on my google plus...downloaded the few, two came out 0x0 resolution...question#1 WHY???? the other cam out fine and 2 were 0x0 and why does mx player play them, in default state...stock video wont play...they are all .MPG files

The stock player shows them broken/unplayable...I rwmembered the great and wonderful mx player and downloaded

Question 2 the market shows a arm7 neon codec available...at bottom of settings it recomends that one for my galaxy 8.0 at and t carrier

So I guess I am confused what difference is there between installing via OP which I did and all seemed to go well and restarted...and how is it dofferent than just downloading market apk and I am assuming it wil bee updated as needed without need for me to come hwre and update manually when player does

Why would I need OP arm7 neon vs market arm7 neon codec?

Thanks!!!
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Read the first post. You will get the ans for your second question. It's not mandatory to install custom codec. Don't install custom codec untill or unless you really need it.

Note:

If you have downloaded the mx player from playstore there is no need to install any extra codec packs on Arm v7 neon devices. Mx player itself contains the codecs for neon supported devices.
[MX Player] 0-0-0:
Thank you.

At first the codec didn't work for me. I downloaded it into the device's "Movie" folder just so I knew where it was located.

I've not read the rest of the posts in this thread.

But, to make it work, just paste the "libffmpeg.mx.so" file to the root of your internal SD card and it should work :)
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
No, It is not mandatory to have it in root of sdcard. Just browse and select the file. It will be automatically loaded.
[MX Player] VincAlastor:
hi, i've tested the strongene lentoid hevc decoder on nexus 5 and galaxy s3. 1080p encodes are running smooth with that decoder on android devices. you can test it if you download the .apk on the developer site:

xhevc.com/en/downloads/downloadCenter.jsp

please can you compile a ffmpeg build for mx player with that decoder?
[MX Player] Magissia:
No, it is intended for mx only. You can try to use it, but there is no guarantee.

I am having trouble with audio on .mkv files on my Nexus 7 (first gen, Wi-Fi).

I have tried the Arm7 Neon codec in MX Player, but that did not seem to work.

Is that the right codec?
[MX Player] george brown:
Temporarily disabled your equalizer or dsp then play the MX Player check the sound.

Sometimes sound problem occur when you play movies with bad sound quality. You don't need to download codec when everything is OK.

I think I got it working. I had to use the Arm7 Neon codec, but I think I had forgotten to enable the software decoding.

Thanks for the help!

[MX Player] evilnewbie:
I don't get it... I "installed" the MX Player codec v7 Neon and how do I select it when in the custom codec area? I don't know where it was placed, it just installs and puts me into the main screen of my phone. I am not sure where an app goes after it is installed on a phone, so I can't find the codec...

What is "Preferences"? How do I know if it is in use or not if I can't even find Preferences? There is no Preference menu or selection...

Software decoding is currently worse than my Hardware decoding (ironically HW+ is slightly better than software but worse than HW by itself)... strangely, after I installed the codec, it starts using SW decoding even though SW is disabled in MX Player (it is not clicked)... so now everything is worse than before...

Is the codec going to help with the video stuttering? I am thinking about deleting MX Player and reinstalling it...
[MX Player] evilnewbie:
Well I installed the Codec by a different method with not installing the codec (in the Play Store) but downloading the codec directly (from the website) which seems to work... unfortunately, it doesn't help at all the stuttering...

[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
1. Don't install codecs from play store until or unless MX player asks you to install. MX player itself contains codecs required for neon devices. Only other device users has to install.

2. This codec will not impact your device's performance. It is same as included with MX player. Only difference is that this will enable DTS audio track playback.

3. If you have shuttering issues, your hardware is not capable of playing the video. MX Player can't do anything beyond your hardware limitations.
[MX Player] R3dbeaver:
Didn't work. Moto X. Rooted stock.4.4.2.

Installs just fine but still no audio.
[MX Player] Mata_Ratos:
One thing that I found, is that if you place the codec in you /system partition, it's slightly more performant. Enough to view a movie you couldn't watch in S/W because of the video/audio out of sync.

Let me tell you why I say this: I have an Xperia J (single core, 512 RAM), rooted, and I watch movies streaming through SSH from a home NAS I have. I mount the NAS drive through SSH and play them from there (SSHFS is much much faster than streaming from Samba, because of the packets overhead, too much for slow processors). When MX can't decode using H/W or H/W+, is moves to S/W, which is more CPU consuming, and some of the movies I can't watch because eventually the video and audio don't sync (video too slow).

So, what I've tried is move this codec to /system partition, and load it from there. Now I can watch (at least some) movies that decode in S/W mode. I still notice a little stutter but audio and video are always synced. My theory it that internal and external (SDCARD) memory are in FAT32, while internal are in EXT, which is faster. It makes enough difference for my slow device.

I haven't tried using only the MX built-in codec, but with this custom codec this makes a difference.
[MX Player] IsolatedKM:
thanks for share

said from Primo XDA
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
You are wrong. In your case there is no role of sdcard.

As soon as you add the custom codec it will be copied to mxplayer's data folder (/data/data/com.mxtech.videoplayer.pro/files/ incase of pro version) & will be loaded on restart. MX Player will check the CRC value on each start up. If the file in the sdcard is changed or updated the codec will be reloaded on restart..

In most of the devices data partition is EXT3/4. So, It will never impact your performance.

Do you use any script to use your sdcard second partition for data like link2sd, mount2sd, init2sd....?

In that case the library file will be physically in sdcard. Then, your memory card read/write buffer could cause problem.

[MENTION=3850543]bleu8888[/MENTION]

Can you confirm my statement?
[MX Player] Mata_Ratos:
Well, I didn't know that it would copy the codec to /data partition, so it's not about the filesystem, but it's something else. I don't use any of those scripts, and run all my apps from /data/app, I try to avoid running from the sdcard (in my case, internal memory) because of the fat32 problem.

As for the custom codec then I have nothing else to say, it's been working perfectly for now.

As for the stuttering in some movies, if it's a low-end phone like mine, you have to run it from sdcard and check if it uses H/W or H/W+ to decode. If it uses S/W then you have to use other software to convert the movie to a android native media file. If you're running it from a NAS device or network shared folder, that's the reason why it stutters: low-end, slow phones don't have enough processing power to stream from them (can't remember now the protocol name, it's not my field...) because the packets have too much overhead and consume a lot of power. SSH consumes far less CPU power and so you can save CPU power to decode the movie.

Just try to transfer a file from a windows shared folder, or Samba folder, and then through SSH, and you'll see a HUGE difference!

I use an app I bought in Google play,that's SSHFS android. Have a router with Openwrt, with SSH activated, and with the SSHFS I mount the NAS folder (2 USB HDD's with lots of movies). The movies appear as if they were in my sdcard, and if I stop watching a movie, on the other day it resumes from there. Subtitles and all. :)

A little off-topic but I hope it helps those who don't have a ultra mega super fast (expensive) phone. :)

Please help me?

I am having issues with MX player pro when its connected to my sbh 52 bluetooth headset and sony xperia z 4.3 phone.

The volume slider won't stay even though I increase it to vol 30.

The moment I let go it goes back to vol 9

Its noisy on the bus hence I kinda need the volume louder.

I have used the walkman app on my phone with the bluetooth headset and the volume is very loud even at half way

It is only mx player pro that I have issues making the volume stay.

I have tried to unpair the head set

turn off phone audio

reinstall numerous versions of mx player from 1.7.16 all the way to 1.7.26

all have this issue.

within the mx player it self i have set audio sw decoder and hw+ video decoder.

tried it on both mp4 and mkv files.
[MX Player] :
Sorry for a n00b question....

What type of video files come with DTS audio???

I haven't encountered one till date....:confused:
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
If you haven't encountered any issues, then this codec is not for you.

Most of the DVDs & Bluray Discs comes with DTS audio. Depends upon the ripper video rip may/may not contains DTS video since some people prefer Dolby Digital for audio.

The most of the bluray rips in my collection has dts audio track.
[MX Player] :
Which file did you download?
[MX Player] R3dbeaver:
The first one. With NEON support.

Downloaded VLC and plays just fine. So I know it's not the file.
[MX Player] omdhar:
Forget DTS audio, many video format when played on mx player plays with sluggish SW decoder. Using custom codec and enabling hw+ support, those video plays near HW decoder.

[MX Player] :
If you don't play files with DTS Audio then MX Player comes with inbuilt codecs which will do fine...

But if you intend to use custom codec, download the 1st file i.e, Arm v7-Neon...:good:
[MX Player] jkmaxfli:

[MX Player] omdhar:
You also need to update latest mx player either ver 25 or 26. Ver 24 will have some issue with given codec.

Clicking the thanks button would be appreciated if I helped you...;)
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Have you followed the instructions?

If you have loaded properly the path will be shown on Settings >> Decoder >> Custom Codec

If it showing then you are playing in HW mode but forgot to enable the SW audio.
[MX Player] R3dbeaver:
I've done this lotsa times on my Nexus 4, 5, and Moto RAZR XT910.

Yes, i've done it that way. And yes, I've also enabled SW audio.

Not happening with my Moto X.
[MX Player] :
Have you installed any modules???

Have you enabled volume for other media in your android settings???:confused:
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Do you have problem with only Moto X or all of your mobiles??

Can you post the screenshot of Custom Codec section in Decoder area?

If MX Player can decode other audio formats without problem, Then there won't be problem with decoding dts audio track with custom codec.
[MX Player] R3dbeaver:
Yes. Xposed with Gravity Box. Didn't touch anything on the Media though.

enabled volume for other media? What??

[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
From your screenshot,

It seems that mx player has successfully loaded the codec since it shows the path of your sdcard.

But, You haven't enabled SW Audio in Settings >> Decoder

Enable SW Audio in Settings >> Decoder.

Clear History from Settings >> General

If You still have problem can you produce a logcat?
[MX Player] :
As far as I can see from your screens, you haven't enabled SW Audio in Settings.... This may be the cause of your problem...:cowboy:

Just enable SW Audio in Settings>Decoder....:good:

Hope this helps and please let me know if you face any problems now...:cool:
[MX Player] R3dbeaver:
Nope. Like I said in my earlier post, I *DID* turn SW on. In fact, I tried on and off combination a few times and it doesn't seem to help.

It's just a coincidence when I took those screenshots yesterday that it was off.

ON then restart, OFF then ON and try immediately, OFF, ON and different media... ON, restart, OFF, restart, ON... lol.... restart MX player, clear data, ON OFF again.

But trust me, I did turn it on.

I dunno how to produce logcat, but I suspect it's something with my Xposed modules.... oh well.
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
You have successfully loaded & your settings are correct. There is no problem with other audio tracks. Then, You are doing some thing wrong. Since if you can play other videos with custom codec means should play dts as well.

Are you sure that the file you are trying has dts audio track?

Can you post the media info?

Are you getting any toast message like "unknown codec: dts" when you play the video?

If you don't mind export settings & activities and attach here

Logcat:

Easy way

Install MX log collector from play store

Open MX Player & reproduce the problem. Then immediately open mx log collector. better to save it in mail & download it.

Alternatively,

when it ask to select the app to share select an email client like gmail and minimize

Open /sdcard/android/data/com.mxtech.logcollector

Here you you can find the log.txt.gz

Copy it to a desired location & upload her

Else, Since you have a rooted mobile search for play store. there are lot of third party apps available to record the logcat.

low volume help

Hi!

I have a Onda v972 tablet, and his factory fault is the very low volume caused by very small speakers.. I want to ask you, can you have any idea how can be possible to set somehow the mx player volume more higher? I can set only in SW mode the overboost, and maybe in HW+ mode is a little bit higher, but if possible will be good to be set more higher in all modes...

All idea is welcome :)

[MENTION=4258555]ktsamy[/MENTION] Why are there so many MX Player codecs in Play Store??? How do they differ from custom codec???

Do they need to be installed???
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
MX Player has in built libraries (ffmpeg & some other libraries) required for neon supported devices. But, It does not come with codecs required for other platforms like x86, MIPS & old ARM v5 , V6 & V6vfp. There are only very few mobiles running on these platforms. So, Codec packs are released as a separate package to reduce the size.

So, Don't install any codecs from play store until or unless MX Player asks you to do.

I think You have answered for the same question to another user. Read About section to know more about the custom codec.

The last time I used this codec, I had to change audio to SW so I can use HW video. But now im playing dts audio with the SW audio unchecked. Is this because of me using HW+ decoder and not normal HW decoder? Sorry if this is an obvious question but just wanna understand better :D
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
In both HW+ & SW mode audio will be deocided by ffmpeg. In HW mode it will be done by the hardware decoders. That's why you have to enable SW audio with HW decoder to play dts audio track.

[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
We have planned to standardise the custom codec naming to avoid the incorrect loading and to avoid issues while upgrading the player.

Actually it was planned in implement on the major upgrade (v2.o)

But, The developer has implemented it earlier before planned. I.e, for the next version v1.7.29.

From the next version onwards you can directly load the zip file with codec. It will automatically select the codec from the zip file. Even if the zip file contains multiple codecs of different versions/architecture, it will automatically select the right codec.
