Audio Stutter Problme with MIUI/CM9/AOKP cROM

I am starting this thread coz I have been observing Audio stutter in each & every MIUI/CM9/AOKP cROM made for i9003.
Tried allmost all kind of popular music player available, but none of the player was able to remove the audio stutter.
I tried all possible remedies, like:-
-Removing DSP
-With DSP
-Without any custom equalizer
-Different bit rate for mp3 files
-Different format s of audio files
I asked lot of times in different forums but got no response.
I think this is a very important thing along with other issues like Backlight/Blacklight/Camera/Battery life/smoothness for a cROM.
I hope to get resolution for the same.

Right now there is no solution at all. Dhiru is working on audio files. But he is more worried about kernel 3.0. For camera, hardware acceleration, smoothness kernel 3.0 is the only option.
This thread should be in general section.

Thanx for the reply....!!
I know Dhiru is working very hard and his priorities are different, but this stutter thing is pretty annoying.....!!
I hope i will get my query answered here thats why didnt post in General section. If its violation of forum rule I will move it.

Use a player with buffer like poweramp and set it to the high valor

I flashed beats audio after installing dhiru' s rom... I'm not getting any audio stutter..may b this is the solution ..or not.. I don't know...finally I'm not getting it

Don't use MIUI launcher. (this is the worst)
Delete MusicFx from AOKP/ Dspmanager from ICS.
Use Instinctiv / xPlay Music player (both are free)
Or flash the attached player.
This will reduce the frequency. Does not completely remove it.

Shutter issue was fixed in Alpha 4.

No, It is still there and very irritating too. U hear screeching sounds sometimes.But most of the times it is a stutter.

I have removed Music FX from AOKP rom and installed Instinctiv music player....!!
Now the stutter has gone but, there is a very small break instead of stutter..!!
But anyhow it is way better then the annoying STUTTER sound.
And the interface is great in this player.
Thanx.

The loudness of the stutter is quite low compare to pre aplha 4, but its still there.
Trying different players only reducing the frequency of stutter. Sometimes it is like a break in place of stutter sound.

So this may have something to do with the MP3 decoders. Currently we are using software decoding for all AOSP roms since we don't have a proper functional DSP.
I see no issues with the Audio HAL that might cause the shutter since there is no such issue when dealing with basic sounds like Ringtones or Notifications. Have you tried playing lower bitrate MP3 songs? Does it still shutter?

ur right....!!
I have observed Upto the bitrate of 128KBPS the stutter is very low & with higher bitrate the stutter is very much increased.
But have not tried any MP3 file with the bitrate of below 128kbps, will try to play one to test it.

Im using Playerpro with the DSP pack,i have deleted the DSP manager from system apps,i have no shutters at all works perfectly,oh btw there is a setting in Playerpro with Dsp pack to increase or decrease the Audio Buffer,may be that made the shutters go away,in short i have no audio shutters at all

Its not over yet i posted u before @ ur thread with logcat. It keeps shuttering as the system try to free memory.
If u want logcats i can provide u many i dont wait much time to have a shutter

A workaround:
It's due to the load on the CPU. Generally, the sound chip on a system handles all the decoding and DA conversions, but here, the CPU is taking on the load instead.
Using the "V6 SuperCharger" script and Poweramp's higher priority settings, along with DVC enabled, I've got the stutter down to a minimum (it still stutters when running taxing applications like Chrome Beta). I suggest using the "V6 Supercharger" scripts for now.

You need to use a Script execution program such as Script Manager (Free - Ad Supported).
Doesn't need to be executed every startup. It's a One-shot type of script.

COMPATIBILITY/STABILITY ISSUES
DO NOT USE 3rd PARTY EQUALIZER APPS: WILL CAUSE DISTORTION AND CONFLICT WITH NOOZY AUDIO TECHNOLOGIES
For people who uses VOODOO SOUND:
to keep the awesome Voodoo enhancements just be sure to keep OFF the Noozxoide Psychoacustic Processor
For people who are experiencing crashes/force closes:
try to increase the dalvik.vm.heapsize in your build.prop
DEV FEEDBACK ABOUT COMMON ISSUES/FIXES:
## APK size
I’ve read the threads at the XDA forum, people curious about the noozy apk file size looking different from Google Play, whether after installed or extracted. It is a compressed archive with obfuscated content. Some people gets 4MB, 5Mb, 6MB more or less, noozy extracts itself some of its important components to use on RAM, apk becomes bigger due to noozy extracting the necessary firmware files from embedded sound chip and store it inside noozy apk for faster process. “noozy” actually relies on stock libs,works as a basic interpreter when emu starts and so you get sound altered by noozy. Thing happens basically like a PlayStation 2 emulator.
## If I push the eq button noozy crashes and restarts
No matter how heavily modded your Android is or if you keep flashing different new sound libraries, noozy will crash all the time due to the emulation failed to work properly.
## It crashed after about 45 minutes playing and android did not showed any warning at all, no pop-up window stating the app was stopped/FC
To run an emu on Android is a challenge, everything is just experimental. When noozy tries to get higher priority negotiating the root audio, if it fails, the whole playback process will just halt. We haven't put a warning message yet, so we put a threshold to prevent your phone going on mute forever until you reboot. So we just try to make something work.
## Everytime that i hit music it FC. Movies works well.
To be frank, noozy is a very basic player with several basic decoders, when noozy finds music files and search for the exact folder ([emmc]mnt/sdcard/music) and finds a music format that is not supported it will just fail (eg .flac format).
## While I play a file with the app in foreground, no problem; if I set it to background, for example i start browser, it continues playing, but after some seconds it stops.
Noozy + noozxoide + soundxemu consume a lot of CPU and RAM. It reaches 30-70MB or more. When the resources are not sufficient,noozy or noozxoide will cut itself and stop everything.
##UI and updates
Regarding to the UI experience, we will fix it as soon as possible, but the audio comes first. Noozy updates will end soon enough after the UI is good. There are also new things in the work related to Noozxoide Labs and Android. We will release the full sound-processor-based, no EQ, no conventional parametric filters. Hope we are not alienating users.
UPDATE 3.0.2.3 [11/10/2012]
- Fixed major bugs (lockscreen)
- Improved & reduced SoundXEMU-ALSA-SPU interpreter keep busying.
- Improved with higher priority on bypassing root-audio-effect and DRC (Dynamic-Range-Compressor) in order to get pure playback from the source keeps away loudness-war. (respect!!!)
- Added algorithm on Acoustic processing for higher vocal definition, and natural warm audio.
- 24bit(float) high-depth precision processing to for clarity and stunning audio.

Just what I've been looking for:thumbup:

it doesn't download background images on my phone, is that normal ? Uber Music used to download them instantly.

hmmmm,i use Voodoo too and no problem here. btw to keep the Voodoo bass be sure to disable Psychoacustic Processor in Noozy. it may be a general problem then,not related to equalization. can you try to increase your vm.heapsize to 64? you can find it in the build.prop. make a backup of your build.prop first.

24bit playback is still not supported by Android Core. May be someday Google will build that...
This app is a DSP (Digital Signals Processor) which alters Sound characteristics on-the-fly to make it more Crip, Clear, Punchy and Surround... like Dolby/SRS and maybe BBE/VIVA (comparision is not required but its kind-of similar )
This app will not alter the Encoding properties of an Audio flie (256 bit, 16 bit, 48000 khz)

You can defenitly use PowerAmp build in EQ (I am also a Great Fan of PowerAmp).
Noozxoide EIZO-rewire™ PRO will affect the Sound Output (Headphone/Speaker/Bluetooth) system wide. But condition is that other EQ (Standalone/App In-Build) should be disabled or turned off to make this Sound App work otherwise you will have distortion and duplicate processing and resulting in loss of sound clarity and fidelity.
In PowerAmp untick 'DIrect Volume Control'. I bet you will defenitly see the difference and start using Noozxoide EIZO-rewire™ PRO
No need to worry about EQ or DSP and this is the one solution for Ultimate Sound Enhancment.

Confirmed works wonder's on 4.2.1 i had beats installed and this blows it out the water.Much appreciate

Tested it with poweramp and i don't really like it. I still love the poweramp EQ.

Two thumbs up!!
I gotta tell ya, this is the best audio engine I've tested on the nexus 7!! Thank-you much!

will have 2 try this out

why don't you put this thread to app section? it's more suitable than here. by the way this app is very good.:good:

System wide sound. Should be working.
Please disable or remove any other EQ/DSP you might have and then try.
Check if you need to change "Settings > Sound > Music Effects > Choose Noozxoide EIZO-rewire™ PRO Series”
Found to be working and compatible with following players:
PowerAmp (100% working)
jetAudio (100% working)
BBE SonicMax Pro (100% working)
Neutron Player 32bit/64bit Generic/NEON (100% working)
NRG Player (100% working)
PlayerPro (100% working)
Stock Player (100% working)

@BSDgeek_Jake : there's a small typo in the app (what I keep noticing). The main screen where u have the 3 monitors for config the second should be "Built-in" not Build-in. Sorry if this is rude.

● Eizo Rewire PRO series (an awesome Audio tool wich brings lots of effect and claim to offer a better balanced and natural Sound)
● AC!D Audio Parts (Huge optimisation in overall sound quality due to some optimisation, some tweaks, some audio rendering and resampling and even more... some Huge work have been done already)
Our Goal is to give an Engine able to increase Audio Quality of every Android Based Smartphone in every application you will be able to notice improvement
READ CAREFULLY, CLEAN ROM INSTALL RECOMMENDED!
§1 Remove ALL equalizers (DSP Manager, Music FX, ect ect) Music FX may somehow reappear so just uninstall it again and it won't come back.
§2 Be sure your ROM does not have any other Sound MOD preinstalled
§3 Download AC!D Audio Engine
§4 Download either walkman or an addon, the walkman player doesn't support addons.
§5 Put downloaded files in a special folder, you can create an AC!D Audio folder (will be usefull in the future) or just copy to the root of your SD.
§6 Once you have all needed files on your phone reboot in recovery (CWM)
§7 FIRST WIPE CACHE PARTITION AND DALVIK CACHE!!!
§8 Flash Galaxy Engine Zip: (Walkman is not compatible with any other addon, so you have to choose between Walkman or one of the availble Addon)
- AC!D + Walkman: First flash AC!D Audio Engine, Then flash Walkman addon, wipe cache and dalvik again just in case.
- AC!D + ADDON: First flash AC!D Audio Engine, (DO NOT FLASH WALKMAN!!!), and then flash the Addon of your choice (Noozxoide for example) wipe cache and dalvik again just in case.
§9Reboot and put the phone down and wait 10 mins.
open an explorer (I recommend es file explorer) and verify if build.prop lines where added (Go to /system/ and open build.prop file look at the end of this file)
§10 if lines where added correctly (look below) just reboot if not add them manually to the bottom of build.prop and save then set permissions back to RW-R--R-- on build.prop, Go to properties in es file explorer by long pressing on the file to change permissions.

This is a very advanced sound mod with many technologies implemented, you will benefit from any sound source but is most noticeable with a good pair of headphones.
I'm not entirely sure if it will work with player pro it seems there's certain players that sound better than others, or work better than others, But its always worth tying out.

306 views and not one thanks if you like this mod remember to hit the thanks button!
EDIT
I've been using this for over a week now and I use neutron music player and with its 32/64 bit processing combined with this mod and lots of time tweaking all of neutrons settings, I am hearing outstanding quality and details Ive never heard in the songs I listen to, i am completely speechless with the quality. Neutron is 4.99 but is well worth it, try out their demo first to hear for yourself and be amazed.
EDIT
I've noticed if you use the volume hack it does add more background distortion/noise which will degrade quality. If you really don't need the volume hack then do not flash with ac!d.
EDIT
REMOVED volume hack from list, seems to cause problems.

Thanks a lot for sharing a best MOD. I'm using music player Walkman v5.0.A.0.11 right now plus Noozxoide EIZO - rewire PRO. Tested every effect and functions. All results made me so sacrifice about the app. I also compared side by side with PowerAmp. And boom...I decided to keep both. He he he cause I bought PowerAmp long time ago. And one thing for sure that this app can blow your butt of the chair (like it did to me cause I adjusted the effect to Hard level, my bad). Anyway, the result came out still belong to the app users. With me, 5 out of 5 stars. Thank you all for the hard work and another beautiful way to enjoy the music we loved. Keep it up you guys.

Did you uninstall DSP manager before you installed ac!d and noozxoide? Try flashing it again. I've tried this on 4 ROMs, 2 different slimbean, aokp, and pacman, all with success follow the instructions to a tee, also this is only for ICS and up this will not work on gingerbread.

Yeah no other equalizers installed. I'm on aokp I made sure to wipe dalvik I removed noozxoide and reinstalled still the same force close immediately.

Hmm...the only thing I can think of is to reflash aokp and gapps, reboot, uninstall DSP manager, reboot, wipe cache and dalvik, flash ac!d then noozxoide, wipe cache and dalvik cache again then reboot, check build.prop, change effects to noozxoide, reboot and you should be good to go, this is how I install it i may do some extra cache wiping but I like to be on the safe side.

Musicfx should not be uninstalled nor does it have to be uninstalled it will cause problems.
That's really strange though, did you do a full reflash of aokp (wipe data/system/caches)? This mod should work fine if its not a clean install anyhow, its just recommended to, but in your case you should do a full wipe.
EDIT
Found out musicfx is recommended to uninstall when flashing ac!d, every time I did it would force close so I had figured it had to be installed. I uninstalled musicfx, but effects in audio disapeared. Noozxoide is working as it should still, i guess it picks noozxoide as default.
Sent from my SGH-T769 using xda app-developers app

I had to uninstall/delete musicFX or when I change the audio effect musicFX hangs. It will reappear if there is no other eq. So uninstall it through titanium (or delete it from system/app) and then reboot recovery and install acid with an addon - follow the instructions. Then upon reboot check for musicFX again. If it's there then delete it again, it shouldn't appear again after that (at least it doesn't for me). For whatever reason it does cause a conflict requiring its removal (at least for me).
I probably did something wrong, but I couldn't get walkman app to work (got the soft-loud-soft stutter). No big, I can live with apollo. The sound is much better which is the point to begin with

Yup I'll probably just do a full wipe tomorrow and try again then from the beginning.
Sent from my SGH-T769 using xda premium

Everytime i flashed ac!d I never had a problem with musicfx so I always just left it alone.
Sent from my AOKP Blaze

Another thing but if I look at noozxoide in the market it says its not compatible with my phone? I just did a full wipe and am about to attempt to tty again. Also there is no DSP installed anywhere I look.
Update: Anyways still didn't work installed awesome beats that seems to be working so I'll try that one out then.

Dont know why it says that or even why noozxoide isn't working for you, although it says incompatible for me too noozxoide is working fine on racings newest aokp build.
Sent from my AOKP Blaze

Yup I did a fresh install on racings newest aokp build and almost immediately noozxoide force closes when I unlock my phone. OF add the build.prop lines reboot it let's me select noozxoide under sound effects but can't open it but awesome beats seems to be working great

FAQ (Please read before running raccoon in audio)
Q: RA only smaller?
A: Yes, RA is a combination of several audio enhancer such as I have described above, to our use of noozxoide interface, but we simplify and modification. Our consideration is a small file so for those of you who have a small memory can also be shared in the RA, in addition to that we have some other considerations especially for low device.
Q: Is the RA safe to run?
A: Safe, because of the way RA is relatively easy to install and does not cause brick, bootloop when you install applications such as audio enhancer should use CWM, or push to the system. Besides applications like RA and other articles on tips droid always through testing stages before publication so that readers tips droid safely use our applications and tutorials. RA is also safe from viruses and mallware (tested with some antivirus on your PC and android and declared clear of viruses and mallware)
Q: RA can run smoothly on the android version is it?
A: Our RA test runs smoothly on the stock ROM and some custom ROM from several different devices both vendors (Samsung, LG, Sony, HTC, Hi-Sense) and type. In Gingerbread, ICS and Jelly Bean goes smoothly, but on froyo not work.
Q: After using RA why even a small sound effect almost no change?
A: In addition to RA, running or not depends on the compression of the song, when you use an uncompressed song irregularly, RA can not run optimally.
Q: My RA force close, what's the solution?
A: We minimize these events, some tests we did, but for some applications audio enhancer, I have tried to make the RA is compatible with other sound enhancer, but in some cases RA sometimes can not run smoothly with sound enhancer, if it happens, you should take the solution is please to freeze sound enhancer you have used before.
Q: Is the RA only have an effect on the music player?
A: No, the RA will provide overall audio effect, like on youtube application, browser, file manager that has audio player, ringtones and other (including voice when you call, but only a small effect to reduce noise so that the sound can be heard clearly when your phone, it also depends on your signal and your listener while also mic your speaker and your speakers)
Q: Is the RA can damage hardware audio?
A: RA helps you to optimize the audio hardware and software you. If you do the proper setting in RA, the audio device you will be more durable and optimal than not use RA, but if you are setting up the force in excess, will cause damage to your audio device.
Actually not only RA, but all applications enhancer and music players can damage your audio hardware, if you make the wrong setting volume dimaximalkan example, setting dimaximalkan without tolerance. Without the application of RA or audio enhancer memaximalkan even if you force a continual and regular basis, I can guarantee your hardware will be damaged, but it is less convenient when you hear the organ and can damage your hearing. DWYOR.
Q: How do I set RA is best?
A: For this question I answered "relative", we suggest you to try to do their own personalized settings, and the ability to tune your audio device. If you are confused you can find references on the internet how to set up the equalizer on the right and the best android.
Q: After using RA, why is music to be large or small volume suddenly?
A: Make sure you play good music and not compressed extrem, also make sure the bitrate of the song, make sure your music player and speaker capabilities of your audio device. Also make sure the RA runs and does not crash with audio enhancer you use before you install RA. Setting RA also affects the quality of the sound produced.
If it happens that you take is a solution uncheck audio compression options

on multiple devices with dsp crash does not occur, but there is also a conflict with the DSP, if confilict with dsp, dsp would you freeze it first
for comparison should you try first, but I hope raccoon audio smooth and detailed audio will be heard clearly
once you try it, please to write a review

Looking great :thumbup:

can anyone willing to give a review about the raccoon audio again?

This is indeed a wonderful tool to boost the audio experience , but there is a problem that while changing settings sometimes the volume suddenly increases which is painful to ears. If this thing is solved . Its almost perfect.

Testing this out. Will report back. :thumbup:
