VC-1 files crash while seeking - MX Player

I was just curious if anyone was running into this issue. For some reason, seeking any VC-1 .mkv files will crash MX Player.
My device is a Tab S. It seems to happen regardless of what decoder or codec I'm using.

I have tsted in my device & everything is working fine. Can you collect the logs by launching mx log collector immediately after crash.
Kindly upload the logs. It will be helpful to resolve your issues.

@bleu8888 could you take a look?
@Megalith stock or custom rom?

I have already forwarded your report to the developer.
@Megalith
There are lot of audio frame decoding error followed by libc fatal error.
Can you remux your video without audio track (you use mkvtoolnix) & check again?

It looks like a ffmpeg audio codec bug. We are currently working on internal structure renewal for MX Player 1.8.
I will send you a new test build with updated ffmpeg codecs after finishing current task. It would be possible on next week.
Thanks.

Great, thanks for taking a look at that. I look forward to the new build.
I downloaded VLC and it's able to seek without crashing, but I much prefer the minimal UI of MX Player.

But audio has shutters with MX Player ( HW / HW+ / SW are all tested )
Also tested by 3 different android devices, same results.
Could you help to solve this problem?
Here is the AAC file (85MB) which extracted from MKV.

I've checked your .aac file but audio itself played with no lag.
I think this is not audio issue but video issue. Would you send full or part of .mkv file?
Thanks

It is the problem of .mkv file itself. Audio track contains less frames than video track.
So MX Player is stuttering to keep a/v sync.

Because my audio track is from another source.
So the root cause is different frame rate of A/V source?
Does any method/tool to fix this issue?
RE-encode whole MKV file?

You should really be asking on a video encoding forum instead. Combining video/audio tracks from different sources is always not a simple task if they differ in any major area, such as length.

[Bug Report] MX forced rebooting on CM 11!!

I have been using MX player on all my phones since my first phone.
Recently I decided to run Cyanogen 11 custom ROM.
The list of videos displays fine. The player plays a heavily pixelated videos for a few seconds. Then the phone reboots.
The same cycle occurs again if I try to replay.
At first, I doubted my ROM. So I installed all the other video players from playstore. Surprisingly ALL of them play without any issue. Only MX force reboots.
I am running it with default settings. I even changed to SW from HW. Still reboots.
Device : LG L90 D-410
It should be hardware video decoder, I think this is rom related, you should report it to the developer of that rom.

I will soon. But I doubt anything will be done. Because as I said earlier, it ONLY happens with MX player, not any other player. Why such a thing?
Since the phone reboots instantly, I cant take any errors.

That's because MX Player uses custom android-internal modules that most other players don't; it's how MX's performance is superior. If a ROM builder had a compile problem, that's likely the cause.

Though I have only collected logs of my own apps via adb.

It is hard to find reason with the log because only 3 lines are from MX Player.
But it seems that you used HW decoder. HW decoder is just wraper of android.media.MediaPlayer java class.
MX Player does not touch any system internal if HW decoder is used.
In this case, some MediaPlayer function calls -- which is not used by other video players you've tried -- may cause this issue.
I suspect subtitle related function calls, because 1) many video players doesnot use MediaPlayer subtitle functions and 2) there is an error from MediaPalyer; 10-30 23:53:36.478: E/MediaPlayer(6097): Should have subtitle controller already set
If my assumption is correct, SW decoder should work correctly. It would be help if you send log after trying SW decoder.
Thanks

Enabled full SW decoding.
Disabled subtitle drawing using HW.
Yet only a very few lines from MX !
What puzzled me is the last statement in the log. "AudioFlinger", call the process ID of mx player. And the system reboots.
Logs attached.
Process ID seen in attached pic.

Would you try after turning off "audio fade" settings on Settings > Audio > Fade on start/Fade on seek?
SW and HW decoder both changes volume rapidly to implement this feature.

Hi,
We have improved H/W+ on 1.9.1 which you can get it from alpha channel.
If you don't to be an alpha tester, Just grab the test build from our website (https://sites.google.com/site/mxvpen/translation/test-build) & install it manually. Your feedbacks will be highly appreciable.

Playing avi didn't work

Hello,
i want to use MX Player to watch a avi-file at my Samsung Galaxy S3 (i9300). After starting the video, I only see the picture of the beginning and hear the sound (HD-Decoder).
After changing to SW-Decoder (there is a message abourt adpcm) I can see the movie, but there's no sound.
I also tried the Codec for ARMv7, but this did't solve the problem.
Information about the avi:
Video-Codec: Motion JPEG Video (MJPG)
Audio-Codec: IMA WAV ADPCM Audio (ms)

The log contains only information about the HW decoder playback.
Basically, HW decoder uses the mediaplayer API provided by the Android. MX Player has fewer controls over it. So, MJPEG decoder may not be properly implemented in your custom ROM.
Can you share the logs again after playing it in SW?
It will be better if you can share a sample content as well.

HW decoder issue might be from your ROM itself. So, it can be fixed from our end. Kindly cross check with your stock video player. It may behave in a similar way.

HW+ Issues on MX Player 1.9.7

anyone else get choppy hw+ playback on their oneplus 5? issue disappears completely when using sw or regular hw decoder
I'm finding the MX Player betas are really flakey right now.. The lastest one fixed seeking with the remote control (finally - was broken since the last stable) but somehow broke HW+ decoding on the Nvidia Shield TV, which has always worked flawlessly before.

It's every streamed video on the Nvidia Shield TV. I've got SMB shares mounted on the Shield and these "local" videos all works fine.
Where things are broken is with network streamed (I generally use Terrarium TV). HW+ and Software decoders both now refuse to work, only HW works after the last MX app updates and even HW crashes midstream at times complaining of not supporting the video codec (even though it's already been playing just fine).
Here's a bug report directly after starting play of a streamed file as HW, and just after I've tried to use HW+ and Software (to try and ensure it contains something useful).
