Running Viper 3.1, with the H/K audio mod...AM a GPAA and now a YTMK subscriber. Despite having the settings checked to enable background audio playback for music videos in YTMK, the audio shuts off when I navigate away from the video.
Anyone have this issue or any ideas? Obviously not the end of the world....just curious.
EDIT: It does work (background playback) when starting out in the YouTube app and playing a video.
It does NOT work when you are in GPAA and you click on the video button and then YouTube Music Key initializes.

Hi there,
I got a mysterious problem with my htc pico and MX player.
If I run a video in MXplayer in SW decoder mode and while playing it, I change decoder to HW decoder, the player (video) blacks and player stops responding and then I have to stop the player by killing it. But the audio track of the video still plays through speaker. I can find nothing running in the task manager. If I try playing some audio or even try to use mxplayer to play that or other video, two audios overlap an play together.
So far, I have only found that reboot is necessary to stop the ghost audio.
Is there any taskmanager app or something that can show me list of background processes and decoders and can kill them?
My phone isn't rooted. I will probably root it very soon once I gain enough courage to do that. So, I would like to have a answer to my problem that doesn't need rooting.
Goto manage app and force close mx player. If you still hear the audio(!) then pull out the battery and restart.

Ok.. Enhanced video playback on our Note 7 is nice. Increases video and sound. If im playing a song from gpm then open up YouTube the sound quality greatly increases. But if i back out of YT it goes back to regular quality. Jus wondering if there is a way to keep that quality all the time for music playback.
Please describe the problem in detail.
Back button during video playback used to cause video to play in the background when background playback is turned on. Now it stops the playback. Home button still allows background playback.
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Play a video with background playback turned on.
2. Press the back button in the video playing screen.
3. In 1.8.4, video would play in the background.
4. In 1.8.7 beta 1, video stops playing.
5. Pressing home button in both versions causes video to continue playing in the background.
Hello,
I use a pair of true wireless Soul X-shock earphones to listen to seminars when out jogging etc using background playback. (Samsung Galaxy S7 and MX Player Pro)
The play/pause function (on the earphones) works as it should if there is less than an approx 5 minute delay between button presses...
However, when the video is pause is longer than 5 minutes I find the resume function on my earphones no longer operate and background playback of the video is completely halted.
Not only that, when resuming playback on my phone screen and then pressing the home button or lock screen the video does not play in the background as it should.
I have found the only way to remedy this is to force quit MX Player Pro directly and start it up again. That way the background playback function behaves like normal again.
The problem also happens immediately if I put my ear phones back into the charging case and take them out to use them again.
I am able to use spotify without issue taking my ear phones on and off but MX Player Pro behaves very differently.
I have also noticed the background playback for MX Player Pro on the notifications bar gets killed after about 5 minutes of no playback, requiring a full restart of the app before it can come back again.
I have already added MX Player Pro to the power saving exceptions list but the issue still happens.
Is there anyway to fix this via settings or via new update?

Thanks for your feedback. When you pause the playback manually, MX Player will no longer use the foreground service. So, the system may kill the app to reclaim the resources if it is required for some other process. Once it's killed by the system, it may not be able to receive the media button controls. So, you can't resume the playback from the headset. However, everything should work as expected when you open the app again. If you found any abnormal behaviour, kindly provide us with more info so that we can investigate it further for you.
Really loving Dex and Microsoft's Your Phone app.
Particularly for controlling DI.FM apps while listening to HD LDAC encoded HD radio streaming.
However it's annoying how I have to keep the screen on to do this. Is there any way to control audio apps with the screen off i.e. DI.FM etc?
The app would need the permissions to do so.
Poweramp does this quit well.
I've also seen a glitch in the Samsung browser do this while watching vids. If a vid is running and you hit the power button to turn off the screen after about 10 seconds the vid will resume, audio only. Just what you want but have doubts you could recreate it because of the OS and browser version difference. I assume Samsung corrected this.
