MX Player's decoder list works as the following:

SW : MX Player's integrated ffmpeg decoder

HW : System decoder(which might be SW or HW. In case of Opus, it will be in SW.)

I think it's highly likely that you would still be using SW decoder.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Ragnar Eldur:
Ahh I see, also noticed when downloading playlist chosen the Opus format some said unsupported video, not all videos still got the Opus format so it's best to choose m4a, and I don't notice any difference in quality when listening.

But DANG the playlist downloading speed is blistering FAST!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] arter97:
Weird, opus download should work on all videos.

Can you give me the link that doesn't work with Opus?

Almost all antivirus solutions treat apps that hides itself from the

launcher as a security risk.

As you can see, it's flagged as "not-a-virus",

which means it just may be an app that doesn't do harm to your device,

but may have been installed without your will.

If I was to fix this "misdiagnosis", I need to remove the feature that

removes the app icon from the launcher.

And if I do that, other 90% of the users will email me like crazy on

how the latest update made the app stupidly persistent in the launcher.

I am wondering about one odd thing, when I select songs to be downloaded in the Opus format and YouTube Thumbnails to be embedded with the song, only sometimes the image is successfully embedded as cover. There's always some songs in between that end up with no cover art. Any idea why that happens? This never happens with the AAC/M4A selected.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] arter97:
Opus and Vorbis forces ogg container to be used and it doesn't(or at least very wierdly) handles cover art.

I decided not to put my efforts into implementing cover art embedding with ogg formats as vast majority of music player doesn't handle it anyways.

Is it possible to add just album art metadata, track and artist info is incorrect in 90% cases for me and it's really hard to navigate through music library. I would be thankful.

Edit: all fine now, had to look a page before to find out the video icon has changed ?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Sam Nakamura:
ArkTube download material suddenly (2 months ago, don't remember exactly) started to pic the album cover art from a certain album and re-uses it every time for every new download, so that every downloaded song has the same album cover... If I delete this specific cover image file it just randomly pics another one and uses this for all newer downloads - tryed several android music player apps but same, same everywhere....

Not sure what I could do about, if even arkTube related...

Someone experienced this? Is there solution I overlooked in arkTube settings? (I have the "donation package" installed and everything is up to date!)

Help's appreciated! Thank you!

I really love arkTube and wouldn't want to use anything else... :highfive:

Cancel the download and redownload, then dont touch the screen and a popup will come up asking if you want to start with the newest or oldest video. This popup doesnt always work and I avoid doing playlists because of it.

Hello dev, there is no video button on ArkTube v 7.1.1, I'm using the paid version. My device is honor 5x (android v6.0.1). Please check the attached screenshot. Please fix it ASAP. It is unusable at this moment.

With the new update I have warez warning so I uninstalled reinstall first launch arter donation say everything it s ok so I go on ark to use it and when I go ark I have immediately warez warning. Help please
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] thevirgonian:
I have the same warez issue even though I have nothing installed. I used to be able to just uninstall lucky patcher, then Arktube and donation package, then reboot and install Arktube and donation again and it all works. That isn't working anymore.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Valkyrie743:
i did some digging around. it may have something to do with if you use a proxy or vpn. i guess lucky patcher also uses a proxy service that fakes google play store authentication so its either you have lucky patch uninstalled but didnt uninstall the proxy service. or its conflicting with other ad block / proxy / dns changer apps
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] thevirgonian:
That definitely wouldn't be good, because I use a VPN to bypass the T-Mobile Youtube download speed limit.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Valkyrie743:
im pretty sure its not the vpn. its probably the proxy server that luckypatcher installs as a separate app/service. i had lucky patcher installed 2 months ago to get rid of ads in spider solitaire i play. i stopped using it because it didnt always work so i uninstalled it a while back. well didnt noticed that it also leaves a app. i forgot the name of it, but its something weird with the word proxy at the end of it. it wont show in the app drawer have to go to settings that storage and apps and uninstall it from there. it will have the same logo as luckypatcher.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] thevirgonian:
You were right. It was the proxy server. Thank you!!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Ragnar Eldur:
I've noticed it doesn't matter if I choose to begin with either earliest or oldest song when downloading playlists, it always begins in the same order, no matter which is chosen. Can you fix that or remove the option if you cannot fix it.

https://www.androidauthority.com/youtube-music-lossless-906589/

This article says YouTube music has 256 kbps aac....but arktube only downloads at 128 kbps aac...why.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] arter97:
arkTube always downloads the highest quality audio available(under user's specified codec).

If you got one downloaded at 128 kbps, the video only serves 128 kbps audio.

I've just downloaded a 256 kbps AAC audio yesterday.

If you believe it's a bug, please give me a link to the video.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] @RY@N:
I have tried downloading many audios....infact all the audios i have downloaded till now using arktube are 128 kbps....can you send me a link of a vid having 256 kbps so that i can download and confirm because im not able to find it anywhere myself
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] -Deco-:
Then the audio files you are downloading aren't uploaded in 256Kbps format, or you aren't using AAC, it's an issue on your side.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] @RY@N:

you can get high quality audio from YouTube if you choose ogg opus format. Also it's better to download acc audio directly than converting to mp3, you lose audio quality with converting.

Disabling battery optimisation for Donation pack as well as the arktube main app done the trick . Working flawlessly again.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Ragnar Eldur:
Why does metadata merge sometimes work with opus audio.

Sometimes the YouTube video thumbnail gets set as cover art for the opus audio file, most of the time, no cover art gets embedded with the song.

This only occurs with opus or vorbis, aac/m4a always embeds cover art when metadata merge is enabled.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] arter97:
arkTube never merges the thumbnail on mkv and ogg(vorbis / opus).

You shouldn't have any thumbnails on ogg files. If you do, it's the player's fault.

I'm still yet to find an optimal way to merge thumbnail to ogg.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] arter97:
This entirely depends on your network. Ever since YouTube's introduction to download throttling, the speed varies a lot more than your raw throughput capabilities.

See if disabling 'Dynamic download' helps.

[MENTION=4898097]arter97[/MENTION] why do not you release your custom youtube-dl builds (and ffmpeg maybe) into the cloud and make arkTube look for updates periodically? So you would not have to compile a new apk every time YouTube downloads stops working for an older version of youtube-dl. I think it would be faster for you to make corrections (when needed) and more practical for users. You're not a beginner in development so I guess you might have thought about it, but I'll post my idea here anyway

I notified the users it will be done in "a few days".

Apparently, your definition of "a few days" is no longer than 5 days and anything exceeding that is "so many days".

I publicly acknowledged the issue the moment I noticed it and I sent a notification to every users that it's a known issue and an update will be done in a few days.

I got something called "life" too.

If you think serving a $2 app's users is more important than one's complicated life schedule, you're a **** and I don't care if you're happy or not. Go rate the app 1 star, ask for a refund and GTFO of my life.
