Hello everyone im having issues when using Upscaler. The issue is when playing musing sometimes im getting a strange sound only lasting for milisecond.
Im able to reproduce it in poweramp where you can click on track line to play from any specific part of the song.
Not sure if this is the same problem or not, but i have a crackling sound.
It happens with both pocket casts and google play music. Everything will be fine, then a new podcast or song will start and all of a sudden the speaker turns to garbage, horrible crackling sound. If i plug in headphones and toggle the upscaler on and off, then unplug my headphones, the speaker works fine again.
I have to do this every couple of days. Anyone have that issue as well?
For me the issue was caused by having Adapt Sound enabled (which is simply adaptive EQ) & UHQ at the same time.
UHQ amplifies the harsher frequencies already amplified by Adapt Sound. For music, it's not a problem. I do, however, have to disable both for podcasts etc...

Hello,
I am a proud owner of a couple Android Phones since the HTC G1, the HTC Magic and so goes on.
Now I was very excited to get the Nexus S, but on the first day of use, after making all the updates to 2.3.2 and installing all my usual apps, I noticed a crackling sound when hearing music from the speakers.
I can not find the reason of this but would like to know if someone had a problem similar to mine, and if yes, if it was possible to solve it.
There are some facts about this crackling noise that I point as follow:
- The crackling sound is not present all the times. The phone works well when playing shorts sounds like ringtones and notifications. I can hear everything crystal clear;
- When I start to hear a song (tried many different players, all the same problem), or when I am playing a game that uses constant music or sound effects, the crackling sound starts after some minutes of perfect sound (usually between 01:00 and 01:30 of good playing);
- It seems like a irregular white noise, like playing a corrupted MP3 file, that gets in the middle of the media;
- It beguns with a low volume compared to the media and gets louder as time passes, until it gets more frequent and as louder as the music playing;
- At first I thought of a broken speaker, and checked the headphones, but the crackling sound appears when listening music on both headphones and external speakers;
- Then I noticed the crackling sound appears on long voice calls too.
Well... I thought it could be something related to the software, so tried the OEM recovery process (Settings > Privacy > Factory data reset), but it was not sucessfull.
[Q] Does anyone had a problem like mine?
[Q] Could someone point what could be the cause of it or a possible solutions?
Thanks in advance.

I noticed the same thing while listening to Pandora. Not sure what's going on. I'm on Modaco and don't know if its something in there or not.
I hear the noise after about 30 minutes of pandora.
I'm having the same issue running Modaco while listening to music via Spotify.
Just got back to the stock ROM, I'll see if it's any better and keep you guys posted.
I can now confirm that stock ROM is not affected by this issue.

So, I'm not sure if this bug can be addressed in MX Player, but here's the issue...
I listen to audio books, a lot of them. If the audio is CD quality without any background hiss, then there are brief pauses of silence between sentences.
When there is a pause of silence for maybe 500 ms or less, my bluetooth radio or bluetooth speaker goes into a power saving mode until sound is heard again. When the silence ends and speaking resumes, the first syllable of the first word is usually chopped off.
How to address this?
1) If MX Player can instruct Android to 'Stay Awake' the bluetooth radio, that would be best.
2) If MX Player can send a barely audible signal or background hiss, that would keep my bluetooth radio/speaker from dozing off due to lack of signal being transmitted.
Again, this happens between almost every sentence if there is no background music or tape hiss. It also happens when listening to some talk radio programs I've listed to. To be clear, it's not [just] between tracks. I also turned off the options to fade in and out.
I am unable to enjoy audio books from any wireless headset or speaker.
I am using a Samsung Galaxy S3 SGH-I747 AT&T (d2att), running either stock 4.0.4 or 4.4.2 or CM12.1 nightlies.

Audio silence is actually not silence on device's view of point. While playing an audio stream and there is no sound, player actually sends series of silent packets. It means bluetooth speaker is still receiving packets even though it does not produce any sound.
Anyway, would you send more information to reproduce this issue on my side?
1. Sample video clip that can produce this issue.
2. Model name of your bluetooth speaker.
I recently got a Bluetooth Receiver (Maceton WM4BE). It sounds great with PowerAmp (way better than it does on my computer which doesn't support AptX) but with other apps (Sony Music player, Spotify, YouTube, etc.) the audio constantly crackles, especially with piano sounds and the volume is too loud. On PowerAmp, it sounds great with BT DVC enabled or disabled. I tried the receiver with my HTC Butterfly s, and while it sometimes crackles at the beginning of songs it otherwise sounds fine. On the Z5 I tried fiddling with the audio settings such as turning the normalizer on and off. Strangely, DSEE HX actually sounds like it works with Bluetooth despite the setting claiming otherwise.
Does anyone have similar experiences and know how to fix it? I don't get why it can sound so good with PowerAmp and so bad otherwise.
EDIT: putting it in safe mode didn't help either.
Whenever I play any media the sound is complete fine - unrelated to speaker crackle or bluethoot crackle. I don't think it is a hardware issue or an app issue. Not headphones either - I tried a few.
The thing is whenever the sound cuts off (or is extremely low) - depending on how the media was made, I hear a crackle like when you put a needle on a record player. As if the lack of sound makes the phone try to boost it instead of cut it off and I get noise.
For example I get crackle when changing songs or when a Youtube video starts and stops and some of them have it in the video itself, because audio can be cut on multiple places throughout the video.
You can see (hear) how this can get annoying.
I tried all the sound options, but nothing seems to change it, one guy even suggested sound issues can be related to the dinamic oled screen option, but that doesn't fix it either.
Does anyone know something about that?
Anyone having audio issues with bluetooth?
It constantly cuts out, stops playing, disconnects, etc.
I've turned off battery optimiser for YoutTube Music and bluetooth. I've tried a few speakers, they all have the same issue.
Someone with a similar issue on reddit suggested turning off wifi. Doesn't work.
It's a strange bug, in that it is inconsistent.
Sometimes the music player will pause, other times it will just keep playing the track, but no sound will come out of the speaker. Other times, it'll stop playing, then when it starts again, the volume will be re-set to a lower setting.
It's doing my head in. I wish I could flash a custom ROM and be done with MIUI, but they all look buggy.

Yes I am facing this problem when I connect to my Bluetooth speaker
It's only doing it with certain apps.
YT music is worst, followed by Radioapp. It doesn't do it with the triple J app, (another Radio station here in Aus). In saying that, the triple J app consumes the most battery, so maybe it has something to do with MIUI's ****ty battery optimising, even though I have disabled it for those apps.
