Bug: not returning to current pause location after focus lost - MX Player

When playing video through a stream with an initial start point intent, if you pause the stream and either switch screens or let the screen shut off, it resumes back to the initial start point on returned focus. Using Yatse to invoke player and stream.
I have the bug report but am unsure how to attach it.

Can you disable fast seeking on Settings > Player & try again in HW+ or SW? HW decoder always starts in nearest key frame. But, HW+ & SW can be started in exact location instead of nearest key frame.

Tried that and it still happens.

I was about to post a bug report for this same issue. with the new version of Yatse when it starts a video it disables the resume in MX Player in favor of using resume points from yatse/kodi. I spoke with the developer of Yatse and he advised that it is a bug in MX Player as the cause of the issue after the hand off. See below
Tolriq:
It's tied to how Yatse start Mx Player, but the bug is 100% in Mx Player. Yatse now support VLC and many other players, I won't break them to fix an Mx Player issue.
me:
Any info on the bug I could use to submit to MX Player support?
Tolriq
Well just that on resume instead of normal resuming they reuse the full starting intent.
You can send them to me if needed [email protected] This issue would be the same if you resume a video from Yatse. It would resume at the correct point, when you screen off screen on Mx Player instead of continuing would restart from previously asked resume point when it should not.

I have Similar issues with yaste ?

[Feature Request] Manual Audio/Video Sync

hi
I would like to request a option for manual audio video sync as present in vlc in pc and bs player or dice player in android.. but unlike bs player (limits to 3 sec) or dice player (limits to 1 sec) with manual entering of time... as some of the videos from youtube or other sites like daily motion come with faulty a/v sync an android plays them as it is without correctin them.. so if its possible pls add this feature
I very much second this needed feature!
I wish I could use an external audio file, I mean, play a video and load a mp3 file or something like that.

I need this feature too...
because bluetooth delay exists between LG G3(or G2) phone and bluetooth car audio system
that delay is about 500ms(millisecond)
I will wait for updates
Thanks ^^

fwiw... I also want this
I think it's the one feature stopping me from buying the pro version. currently keeping bsplayer around for files that need this.
admittedly, I seem to have fewer files with bad sync, than some years ago.
This would fix Bluetooth audio streaming delays! Please implement it soon; I love MX Player!

[Q] Issue with audio

I had MX player for a couple years with no problems. Eventually installed the custom codec when AC3 was no longer supported. Everything worked great. Now I'm having issues with some video's audio tracks and not others. Some are fine and others sound like a family of chipmunks arguing/metal ringing and you can't hear ANY dialogue. Full of "artifacts" i guess you would call it. I'm using the Verizon Note 4 on the latest firmware. This was happening with 4.4.4 as well. Thanks in advance for any help.
Hmm, @ktsamy could look into this.

Sorry about the delay in replying. Work's been killing me. Unfortunately, I don't have a way to record a sample at the moment. Camera went for a trip over the side of a mountain a few weeks ago. The best way I can describe it is this. The video is perfectly fine. The audio is playing but you can't hear any music, dialogue, or sound effects. It's just a metallic ringing sound. The strange thing is, it plays fine on my computer and my old Asus TF201 Transformer tablet. Just happens on my Note 4. And as said, it's only certain movies.

That's wired. Can you post the media info?
Most of the camcorders records in stereo & not in 5.1. I suspect that you are playing in HW decoder. If the issue is from HW decoder, this may happen. Can you try to manually enable SW audio from audio track selection panel?
If you still have issues, Kindly provide more details.
Which version of the player?
If you are still using 1.7.40, can you try the latest 1.8.x nightly from the website along with custom codec 1.8. If you are in 1.8 uninstall it & try the latest stable 1.7.40.
Kindly collect a bug report immediately after playing the video & upload here.
It will be better if you can upload or share a link of a sample clip. (There are many tools available online to trim the video without recoding)

After upgrade to 1.8.4 isn't mx player able play video via DLNA (BubbleUPnP)

Hello guys,
after yesterday's upgrade of MX PLayer Pro to version 1.8.4 i'm not able play videos via DLNA anymore. I tried reinstall application, restart phone, clear settings of MX Platyer, but without success. I'm using latest BubbleUPnP, and also latest Serviio DLNA server. Also, with another player (VLC) is everything ok (so from my point of view is issue with MX PLayer). My phone is Nexus 5, latest stock Android 6.0.1. Any suggestion, what can be a rootcause?
thanks a lot

I can confirm that there is indeed a bug with the newest version. The application crashes when you try to stream a video. Local files are working okay. Reviewers on Google Play also say the same thing. You can revert to the previous version or wait for the fix.
HTC M9 stock Android 6.0
Also got this problem using intent to start the stream. See here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/mx-player/mx-player-1-8-0-alpha-test-t3239819/post68168410
New update is being rolled out by the developer to fix the 1.8.4 regressions. It may take some time reflect in Google Play. Just wait for 1-2hrs.

Can you check whether it happens with 1.8.20 or not?

since v.1.10.12, mx player doesn't show up in the listof the players

My device is on android 7.0 and since last two beta updates from playstore, MX disappeared from the player list when I try to play the network stream.
It still shows up when playing the video stored in the device, but not when the video is a network stream.
This issue happens with v.1.10.12 and 1.10.13 so I installed 1.10.9 and it works now.
Hopefully this issue will be fixed in the next version.
Same here. Android 7.1.1

There weren't any changes in this regard. If you meant that MX Player is not listed while opening video links on Chrome, it is an internal change on the Chrome. It uses it's own mediaplayer instead of asking you to select the activity (or app) to handle the link. If it is not supported, it directly starts downloading the file. Similarly, some other social apps (like Whatsapp, Telegram) has started using the same in the recent time. Since we do not have any controls on their app, we are also helpless on this

Hmm I don't think it's the change on the chrome. All the other players such as vlc, kodi and all the other player kind apps installed on my phone still show up, and even MX player v.1.10.9 working fine. Only MX player v.1.10.12 and 1.10.13 disappeared. ( i've just updated to 1.10.15 to see if there's any difference but unfortunately this version doesn't show up on the list either.)
And I was not trying to open the stream link on chrome. It was a kind of cloud app(no recent update) and have been using it with no issues until v.1.10.12.

That's strange.
Kindly make sure that "Play media links" in the settings > general is enabled in MX Player.
If it is already enabled, Can you pls share more information with us like the name of the cloud app, version, device details, etc? We will try to reproduce it in our end and get it fixed for you.

MX Player fails to recognize intent from other apps
Hi, I am an Android developer and I have been using MX player as a video player for my app for 3 years now. My app has HLS links that I pass to MX Player via intent. But since the last two updates, MX player has stopped recognizing that intent, and ActivityNotFoundException is thrown in my app. I have around 10 million app users and most of them rely on MX player to play HLS links from my app. Please look into this matter at the earliest. Hoping to hear from you soon. Here is the code I have used in my app to launch MX player:
Code:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setPackage(getMXPlayerPackage(context)); //here i check which package mx player is installed (paid or free) and then return the corresponding package
intent.setDataAndType(Uri.parse(uri), "video/*");
startActivity(intent);
