If you are not getting audio in HW mode & works in SW mode, then the audio codec is not natively supported by your hardware.
But, AAC is supported in most of the devices. Can you post mediainfo of the file?
Note:
In HW+, SW mode MX uses it's own codecs to devode.

In that case, this looks like an issue specific to Galaxy S5 audio and Samsung's implementation of their sound drivers.

I have checked myself on Galaxy S5. There is no problem.
Can you upload a sample clip?

I guess I should have worded my statement weaker; I meant that as a hypothesis to be verified.
Check here
http://developer.android.com/guide/appendix/media-formats.html#core
Android has inbuilt support for aac/aac+ formats. So, There should not any problem aac .

What video player are you using. Try VLC that thing will play anything.
Install the codec pack that comes with Kies, or use a community maintained codec pack like CCCP (Combined community codec pack).
I have CCCP installed and videos play without any difficulty in WMP, VLC and MPC

I've been a fan of MX Player as it plays anything I ask. I purchased the pro version some time ago. Unfortunately, network streaming has taken a turn for the worse as of late on all my devices. I've done the usual stuff like uninstalling & reinstalling, clearing app data, wiping the android cache's ect but nothing seemed to help. Almost all my usage is network streaming so this is causing me some frustration.
I ran some tests and found that when playing the same test file from either my DLNA Server or SMB Share, MX Player would pull a constant 40-60 Mbps while other media players (VLC, VideoPlayer, VLC on PC) would only pull 40Mbps bursts of data every 8-10 seconds. I'm wondering if this could be causing the stuttering playback & very long seek times I'm experiencing with with MX Player. I can let MX Player sit there and try to play for 5 minutes and it will pull enough data to have downloaded the test file several times. MX Player does play the test file wonderfully from my SD card.
I've attached graphs of the network traffic, each represent a 120 second portion of time beginning with the start of playback. I see the same results with a Nexus 10 running Android 4.2.2, HTC M8 running 4.4.2, and HTC One X (Evita) running 4.1.1.

I really like the variety of file types that MX Player can play but if it can't play them smoothly over the network it isn't of much use to me.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
What are you using for DLNA? If you're using something like BubbleUPNP, I would expect that app and it's server software to be able to give MX a complete stream without problems. SMB share lag is a known issue of MX player, as highlighted in my list of bugs and feature requests sticky thread.

Interesting; @bleu8888 could you take a look please?
Does it happen on all decoders? HW decoder typically uses more traffic if software audio or embedded subtitle is used.

HW+ and SW decoders were the only ones available with the test file I used. The bandwidth consumption was the same on both.
I will check it out.

How did you stream smb videos?
looks like buffering issue.
In which decoder?
Can you try other decoders like H/W+ or S/W.
If the problem persists just play the video & seek one or two times. Then Goto Help 》 Report bug. Save the logs and attach here

i have same issue, play on local has no issue, nor does other hd format via samba, only mp4 with aac codec
I'm using Youtube-dlG (GUI) to download childrens programmes from the National Danish Broadcasting Company. They're h264, AAC files.
The videos play in MX Player, but every five seconds or so there is gfx corruption. The same videos play fine in eg. VLC.
I can't post links but if you google "skaeg med matematik 7" the first link is to one of the videos that has this problem when downloaded locally to my Nexus 7 (2012) running stock Android 5.0.2.
It would be great to have MX Player play these videos, so we don't need to switch players for them. Thanks.
If you go to advanced posting and uncheck "Automatically parse links in text", then you can post links.
Could you post the mediainfo of one of the downloaded videos?
Thanks for the tip.
When downloading the vids it's obvious that they are divided into a lot of chunks - wouldn't surprise me if that's part of the problem. I should probably mention that it's not all videos downloaded from this particular corporation that displays the problem. Other vids are fine.

Apparently those are MP4 DASH files. Until the developer clarifies the issue, you can try remuxing to non-DASH via "ffmpeg -i source.mp4 -c: copy target.mp4" or mp4box
Great suggestion @wOxxOm ! @bleu8888 is this an issue with ffmpeg support?

@sittingduck77 I've tried "skaeg med matematik 7" download from Youtube-dlG.
I am not sure but Its URL appeared first on my Google.com is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eRxrmHCuIV4
I've tried all three decoders HW, HW+, SW but all decoders worked fine without any graphics corruption.
I would be able to test further if you send me your downloaded file or exact YouTube download URL.
Kindly send me a PM if you don't want to post URL or file.
BTW, does this issue exists with all three decoders -- HW, HW+, SW?
Thanks
The remuxing using FFMPEG works perfectly. Thank for the tip.
bleu888: I tried all modes, and the gfx corruption happens with H/W+. H/W doesn't play at all. S/W works perfectly.
Please note this is not a file from youtube, but from dr.dk, which is a Danish tv station. I'll send you a PM in a moment with a link for the exact file.

I have a 2012 Nexus 7 running 5.0.2 (LRX22G) that I flashed myself directly from a factory image using Google's recommended procedure, so it's a clean install. I'm at work now, but I'll try to clear the cache and reinstall MX Player tonight to see if that does anything. Also, the gfx coruption happens on my kid's profile which is a non-administrator profile. I'll try the file on the admin profile and see if that changes anything. I admit to not investigating the problem further before reporting it.
Nope, no matter what I do, I can't get H/W+ mode to play the file without the gfx hiccups. If you need me to post a video of how it looks, just let me know.
