MX player: one annoying thing after version 1.7.19. Do you have the same problem?

Hello,
I'll be using the word 'Actions' = increase/decrease volume, brightness and seeking forward backward.
Now the issue:
While watching video on latest and recent updates of MX player, when i try to increase/decrease volume, brightness and seeking forward backward with one finger slide, it is not happening directly with 1 time fine touch. In version 1.7.19 it happens directly, that is good like, while video is playing, 1 time i touch the screen and slide to perform the actions. Post that version, i need to touch the screen 2 times to do the above actions. With the 1st touch, you will get that annoying seekbar and then you need to touch 2nd time and slide for those actions. This is VERY ANNOYING and I REPEAT THIS PROBLEM IS NOT THERE IN VERSION 1.17.19.
I tried the below troubleshooting steps on the latest version and no luck I'm still using version 1.7.19 because it's free of that problem:
1. Restarted phone
2. Checked all MX player settings
3. Installed MX player codec (ARMV7)
4. Force stopped and cleared cache and data
5. Uninstalled and reinstalled the app.
6. Tried few older versions as well.
Is this exists in your phone as well with the latest version? or is a issue with Micromax Canvas 4 A210 device ?

Don't install any additional codec packs until or unless player asks you to install.
Regarding your issue, It looks like you are doing something wrong & it's broken on your device. I can adjust volume, Brightness & can seek in single touch.
When you touch the screen, it won't show the osd immediately. it will show the OSD only after taking it off. So, till that I can do whatever I want. Two touch is not required.

I've uninstalled the codecs still no success. I think its a device rom's issue as my friend who has Samsung galaxy grand 2 is not having this problem in latest version of Mx Player.

Have you asked in your ROM's support thread to see if they changed anything that might have caused the issue?

Multi-window transparency issue

I am a heavy user of multi-window.
I recently started to use mx player as my video player of choice and I came across a problem.
The video plays fine but the issue lies with the interface. While using mx player, the interface would only show the video while the background stays transparent.
Initially I figured it was a setting in the options, however those transparency options have to do with the interface with the controls instead of the idle interface.
I tried other players to see if it was an issue with multi-window, however I was unable to replicate the issue.
Suggestions are appreciated.

@Alertdotexe Would you test latest test version? https://sites.google.com/site/mxvpen/translation/test-build
This issue might be fixed.
Feedback will be appreciated.
Thanks

@bleu8888
I wholeheartedly appreciate the suggestion, it works beautifully.

@bleu8888
Upon further testing I noticed initially at installation, every works perfectly, however when my system reboots or powers off, the player upon booting up has the same background transparency issue as before.
I have uninstalled and re-installed it which works again until I reboot or power off.

Would you check version of MX Player after rebooting your device?
MX Player looks like being rolled back to old version (or to official version from Google Play Store) somehow.

I believe you are correct, I disabled auto update with mx player on the store and rebooted my device about 10 times to make sure everything is working properly and consistently. Since I disabled auto update, everything seems to be working as intended.

MX Player Version 1.8.10 pausing during music playback after pressing the back button

Hi, I just updated my mp player to the recent version (1.8.10) and I seem to have issue of my music getting interrupted during playback whenever I press the back button on my device. I can't seem to find the "settings" option in the app to solve this. When I was on the previous version of the app, I remember entering a particular setting to solve this same issue but now, I can't seem to find that same settings to rectify the issue. Please any help will be very much appreciated.
Thanks.
P.S. I am using amazon kindle fire hdx with ARMv7 Neon codec installed alongside MX Player.

It's very unfortunate that you can't find the menu.
Don't you have 3 vertical dots in top right corner?

I have the same issue. Focus is lost when locking the screen or changing to another app and music pauses for a second then resumes. I have looked at all the settings and tried various methods in hope of resolving this issue, but nothing worked.

Same here. Back to version 1.7.40.

How to back to version 1.7.40?

bug in MX Player Pro v 1.9.24 (Android)

There is a bug in MX Player Pro for Android, v 1.9.24... at least, when it runs on my Pixel 2 with Android version 9. (I can give full kernel version and build number if needed).
1) When the movie starts, it sets the brightness (backlight) to medium low.
2) Swiping up-down the right side of the screen changes the volume.
3) Swiping up-down the left side of the screen also changes the volume.
Note that in MX Player (free version), swiping up-down the left side of the screen changes the brightness (backlight).
This has been broken for months!!!
I like the GUI.... I can't stand ads, so I paid for the Pro version... but the paid version has a bug that the free version does not!

OK, OK... I finally found where things were going wrong:
Apparently, my the box to optionally show the brightness control was UNCHECKED. I checked it, and now things are working as I'd like.
For others with this problem, you can check the required box either way:
From the video list window: (menu dots) -> Settings -> Player -> Controls -> make sure "Brightness" is checked.
From the video player window: (menu dots) -> Display -> Settings -> Controls -> make sure "Brightness" is checked.

Does anyone notice the auto rotation bug?
Does anyone notice that the auto rotation works sometimes even when it is turned off? It quickly goes to landscape mode and then switches back to portrait.
For those of you who didn't notice this one, Try playing a video in landscape on MX Player with Auto Rotation OFF.
Then press the back button. If I'm right the display will go back and forth between portrait and landscape mode for once.
I'm using this App in Android.

Indeed, it's a bug on the Android itself (https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/69168442) which is yet to be fixed by the google. Can you please specify the MX Player version you are using? We have already implemented a workaround for the same in the recent update.

In the newest Android UI 2 ETF5 for Note 9 there is a bug. When you record a movie in a portrait mode, then want to view it clicking from the camera app itself, then video orientation is never correct. It is always landscape.

Issue on Android 10

On Android 10, the navigation bar is not hidden when in full screen mode. Both the 2 buttons one, and the one button (only gestures). Other video app's don't have such an issue. Please fix that, because now the app doesn't use all the available part of the screen in full screen mode.
I use a Nokia 6.2, with a FHD+ display (2340x1080).

Could please you check again after enabling the full-screen mode from Settings > Player > screen? It may fix your issues.
