Pls Help!! Custom codec won't work on Nexus 6p

Just bought the Nexus 6p and MX Player Custom Codec.AIO.1.7.32zip does not work on MX Player.It works perfectly on my Galaxy S4,but for some reason every time I tap on custom-codec settings it says "Can't find custom codec.Please use version 1.8.0 ARMv7 NEON codec"... I have searched everywhere on the world wide web and I can not get an answer to why it won't work and it's freaking me out. I'm actually considering returning my Nexus and getting Samsung S6.Any help will be greatly appreciated. :(

Do you try it with the 1.8.0 alpha codec too? (download first page)

Kindly download the Arm V7 Neon custom codec 1.8.0 from second post. It will work for you.
[MX Player] bat0nas:
Well.. nevermind. Installed VLC and it plays all my files with audio without any problems and controls are mostly the same as in MX player (change brightness and volume, download subtitle, swype gestures etc.).

After years of using MX.. couldn't realize that there're other apps which simply work :D

Hi

I'm currently using Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. I'm install the MX Player version 1.7.40 with custom codec v1.7.32rev1. My issue is I cannot play the ac3 video file. When play the video it making a squishy sound. I never download extra codec from the play store. Only the player and the custom codec been install on my mobile phone. If anyone got any solution please share with me. Thank in advance :)
[MX Player] EPa:
On this device why not use the latest 1.8.3 and the respective custom codec ?
[MX Player] bluemax189:
The custom codecs arent working for mine. Video plays but audio is messed up. Seems like the user with s7 edge has similar experience.
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Kindly post sample video clips.

I need sample clips.

MX Player uses ffmpeg which is used by the most of the players in any platform. So, It's less likely to be happen. The issue might be from the audio itself. When audio channels has different phase, it will lead to issue in a devices with mono speakers. Just play with earphones & check the audio is still messy or not.
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Answer is already there in OP. Read post #3
[MX Player] j1gga84:
I ask myself what the devs are doing, no updates of MX player since ages :confused:

okay, it works good but is development stopped?

I already ask myself that question some months ago..

regards
[MX Player] EPa:
Sorry, I don't see how post #3 answers why an S7 user doesn't upgrade to the latest mx player version, especially when he has problems with the previous one he uses.
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
I thought that my notes was clear enough... [emoji20].

Here is the bit detailed explanation.

It's not necessary that MX Player & Custom codec must be same version. Custom Codec is just a one of the core ffmpeg library of MX Player which is mainly used as for decoding. It won't change on every MX Player update. So, if ffmpeg is not changed inside MX Player, Custom Codec will ramain same.

In MX Player required custom codec version is declared in manifest itself. For example if MX player 1.8.4 has new ffmpeg library, then it will be forced by a manifest entry. So, you have to update the custom codec as well. But, it's not necessary that MX Player 1.8.5 needs new 1.8.5 Custom Codec. If there is no change in ffmpeg of 1.8.5, the custom codec required will remain 1.8.4.

Note:

The version numbers in my explanation is just an example. There is no such version exists.
[MX Player] EPa:
Your notes are clear enough from the beginning and thanks for taking the time to write them again, but my comment concerned mainly the mx player version, not the codec version. Still don't understand why someone having problems with the 1.7.40 (app, not codec) version, wouldn't upgrade to the 1.8.3 version to see if they are solved.

Note: also the comment had to do with the fact that he had an S7 so mx player 1.8.3 is available for him through the Play store (which isn't the case for older devices)
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
According my experience, the ugly reality is that many users are using cracked versions knowingly or unknowingly. Google Play won't show the updates for a paid apps if it's not purchased by the user. So, They continue to use old version & blame on the developer for the issues.
[MX Player] aqua9teen1:
Maybe the main reason that S7 user does not update their MX Player or download latest crack pro version because they read the first post

"Custom Codec v1.7.32rev1 not supported in the MX Player 1.8.x versions.!! Seperate Codecs uploaded for MX Player 1.8.x. It is not be compatible with 1.7.32-40. So, Current 1.7.32-40 users are stricly adviced to use codec v1.7.32rev1"

Please do not post a silly answer or write any answer such as you know it all. Even the developer does not reply like that. It not good to post just to increase your post status. Anyone can spam it like that. As a S7 user, we will wait for future update for MX Player application or the codec itself. We will continue support for the development. All the best.
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
I think OP is clear enough to understand that there a codec available for 1.8.x too.

I am not spamming here. I was just replying the question of an another user. I didn't make any specific statement against you. It's my general opinion based on my experience in MX Player community & support threads. I can quote may examples. But, I don't want to do such things. If my comment hurts any legit user I apologize for that.

Active users in MX Player community are aware about me how much I have contributed in this forum. If you still think that I am here for spamming or have posted an inappropriate content, let me know. I will delete it myself.
[MX Player] aqua9teen1:
Thank for the solution really appreciate it. God bless you. :D I will try later.;)

Actually I'm not targeting you at all since I read the first post and it is post by you. I consider you as a developer too. That why I did not quote you at all. My previous post is for someone else. I don't want to quote or write that member name since I don't want this small issue to get bigger.
[MX Player] EPa:
To whomever it may concern:

Official (free, ad supported, not pro, not cracked) play store mx player 1.8.3 has been available for at least half a year now, but only for newer devices. Respective custom codec also available. So, nothing new about it..

My original one line comment was informing of that.

Problem is, if someone is using an older device they would not even know there is a new version because play store shows them version 1.7.40 if it detects the device isn't fit for the new version.

Of course, as already stated above, you wouldn't get notified about the new version also in the case of using a cracked one.

On the matter of vaguely accusing/targeting previous posters about spamming to increase post counts or answering silly, one should first check registration days and posts quantity (effectively posts/day) otherwise it's their own post that is spamming/silly.

Also be a man about it: either name things, or, if as you say you don't want small issues getting bigger, delete your inappropriate vague comment part.

Note:

mx player ads are so unobtrusive that I think there is no reason to use a cracked version of this great app.
[MX Player] Thela7:
FWIW, I have also noticed that the sound throughout the speakers of the S7 is cracked/saturated in some parts of audio in different players. Therefore, I don't think it's MX Player related.

Next time I get that noise I'll report it, but chances are that if I don't want to use headphones, or stream to other device, I'd use my old HTC M7.

There is a sample as well along with my fixed track. You can test it with your devices. You can notice the sound difference even in earphones.

There is no way to play as of now. It will be same with all players. Already discussed with the developer about implementing phase inversion of a single track to handle this kind of special situations. Expected on 1.9.x. But, no ETA since he is already overloaded.

[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Just follw the instructions on the second post to select the right codec. If you look at the Custom Codec on MX Player settings it will show "ArmV7 Neon codec".

FYI, There is no seperate MX Player version for Arm v8. Because Arm v8 is fully compatible with Arm v7 Neon instruction set.

In final version of 1.8.4 new ffmpeg is used & need new codec 1.8.4.

Final 1.8.4 is being rolled out by the developer on Google Play. It may take few hours to reflect for everyone. If you don't want to wait you can grab the 1.8.4 final version from MX Player official download page

I also downgraded to 1.8.4 to test, but got the same result. Back on 1.8.5 now.

It's probably from file itself. Can you check with earphones...?

I have multiple test samples & could not reproduce it in any of my devices.

If problem persists, the old version 1.8.3 can be still downloaded from official mx player downloads page. But, it less likely to happen because unlike 1.8.4 & 1.8.5, ffmpeg used in 1.8.6 is same as 1.8.3. Only difference is that it's compiled by linking to new mxplayer libs.

custom codec directly recognized with mx player and i set decoder audio SW to replace the HW

but i still have no sound. someone can help me please ?

thx
[MX Player] pisanty:
Similar problem as above sound crackly without headphones put them in and sound is fine wtf?
[MX Player] Sid32:
Could be your phone speakers and volume too high
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Probably you might have player earlier without custom codec. Even if you change the settings, mx player will use the settings which you have used while playing the video last time. Just enable SW audio from audio track selection panel & try again. If it's still not working, probably the issue might be with audio track itself. Can try with earphones ?

If nothing works, Kindly collect the bug report from help menu immediately after playing the video & share here...?
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
The audio track itself has issue.

Actually it's disabled in HTC & Nougat devices. Most of the recent HTC devices crashes when Playing on HW+. Android 7 has new restrictions in accessing system libs.

According to my recent conversation, New HW+ almost ready & being tested internally. Will be soon released in Beta channel (May be in 1 or 2 weeks). It will bring HW+ back to HTC, Android Nougat (7.0). Hopefully it will fix the HW+ issue with cm13 devices too.

Hi there ktsamy and thanks for all your hard work.

I spent quite a while to try and get AC3 audio playing on my XT910 (stock, rooted, ARMv7-NEON) by trying the codec packs you uploaded with two versions of MX Player but every single time it would fail. After having no trouble first recognizing the codec packs - both ARMv7-NEON and the AIO as listed above - it would restart itself and come up with this error

I first tried with 1.7.35 then uninstalled and tried 1.7.34 but always got the same error. Then I decided to try the dev's website and downloaded the codec pack called ARMv7+NEON Codec 1.7.39 from there. (https://sites.google.com/site/mxvpen/download) Worked fine. I thought it could have been a problem with my original two versions so I tried downloading both 1.7.35 & 1.7.40 (both ad version and pro) from there and installed them and they both worked fine with their codec pack but again, not with both of yours. This concludes that the codecs linked to in your post ( v1.7.32 rev1) are in fact not compatible with all versions up to 1.7.40 as stated. To be more specific, your current codec packs do not work with

* 1.7.34

* 1.7.34 Pro

* 1.7.35

* 1.7.35 Pro

however they do work (no errors, must select 'Use SW audio decoder') with

* 1.7.40

* 1.7.40 Pro

As for versions in between, I cannot say but I would hazard a guess and say that no version lower than 1.7.40 works with the possible exception of 1.7.39 (if that particular version does exist). You may wish to update the post, replacing them with the new codecs found at their website.

Regards,

Med

Android Version..?

It was compiled almost a year ago. But, first ever incompatibility report.

Actually 1.7.32rev1 was released to adress a loading issue with marshmallow. At that time of release I have asked others to keep using 1.7.32. Anyhow It works with 1.7.39 & 1.7.40.

Since Copy.com has shutdown the service, I have lost most of the old backup of custom codec & it's source codes. I have to search it in my system whether I have any other backup or not.

BTW, why do you want to move back to an version released years ago while more stable & bugs fixed version available? I suggest you to use either 1.7.40 or 1.8.6 beta.
[MX Player] MedNZ:
Sorry, forgot to mention that I'm on 4.0.4. I have 1.7.40 installed as previously mentioned and it works flawlessly. 1.8.x is only for 6+. I have two identical phones and they are sufficient for my needs at present. Since I must have two identical devices there's no need to spend another $1K+ on new hardware just to make/receive calls and watch video when I'm not at home.
