Hi,
Hope someone can help me with this.
I've just come to a Pixel 3 from an S8 and one thing I've noticed is that GPM doesn't seem to do gapless playback (in 2019, FFS!)
Other music apps (like Gone Mad) seem to be able to do gapless, but not GPM - which seems to negate the point of a Pixel being a device for people who want a stock Android experience.
Just wondered if there was a solution for GPM and gapless on the Pixel 3?
Many thanks for any help...

I seem to recall a few years ago that you could edit some file if your phone is rooted, but you may have to do a Google search to find the details of the method.
Found this on Reddit ... I tried it and it worked for me:
In the developer settings set the "Disable Bluetooth A2DP hardware offload" to on.
It will require you to reboot your phone but gapless music playback works.

One of the features I was most excited about the incremental OTA bringing was the new MaxxAudio audiofx. It works very well, I'd say on par with Viper4Android (albeit with less options), but there is a big caveat, it only works with certain apps like Google Play music, Apollo, and Spotify (when it wants to). It does not work with apps like n7 Music Player, Netflix, or YouTube. My question is, is there a way to get it to work for all system audio?
If nothing else then at least for the n7 player.
Yeah i have the same problem with pocket casts
Damn, I'm glad I found this topic... I thought that my hearing was off... So, just to report, not working with n7.
I don't really get it, we have a new audio drivers and EQ that simply don't work? What the hell...
I'm wondering of there is an easy effort that I can do to disable the volume duck that occurs when I receive a notification (while listening to music)
Some ROMs have a setting g for this, but I'm wondering if someone could direct me to the proper file I might edit and turn this feature OFF..
I like my notification sound to just play over the music, or just not bother me..
Thx.

Pretty sure this has to do with what app you're using for playing music, and whether it uses the mediaplayer of your device or it's own custom one.
it's true, I hated the ducking but was able to disable it in PowerAMP settings.

Yeah, PowerAMP uses its own media service.
Is there a music player that has this feature that doesn't cost money? I'll pay for Poweramp if there isn't. VLC for Android, for instance, doesn't have this feature.
Edit: After some trial and error with various programs, I've discovered that MX Player plays back audio without ducking, but a drawback is that it doesn't have dynamic playlist creation capabilities (you need your files ordered in folders). It also plays Opus files, which is something that I was also looking for.
Another app, Rocket Player, will let you choose *between* ducking and pausing (under Settings->Sound->Audio Focus->Temp Focus Action), but it won't let you disable the action completely. That being said, I've found that for audio books and podcasts, I actually prefer pausing to ducking or no ducking, so I like Rocket Player in this respect (same goes with Poweramp).
guys,COS 12+ has this option in their OS. the question is there any xposed modules to do the same action like in COS ?? ( I'm not sure if it's available in CM12+ roms or not ) any idea?
Dirty unicorn have this feature and its working great.

Hey,
So I'm on a stock 5.1.1 and updated to the latest Google Photos version, which I think screws with my devices HW acceleration. Basically , after updating I can't watch any HD videos without the frames stuttering, the screen sometimes blacks out in middle of viewing videos as well. Searching around I found that more people experience this, but it isn't that widespread. The problem goes away if I revert the update. Any help for additional workarounds would be appreciated.
Thanks
I was able to find another solution to this. With the latest photos app running, I went in to developer options and switched from NuPlayer to AwesomePlayer making things working smoothly again when playing videos.
If anybody can check what player they're running after updating the app and tell me if they experience video playback stutter with it, I'd appreciate it.
Seems like Google switched between default players on the different OS updates, I'm wondering if they've done the same and it didn't register or something.
Thanks.

This worked for me also. Nice to see confirmation.
OK, i have a Samsung note 8.0 tablet (gt-n5110) currently running cyanogenmod 12.1 which is lollipop 5.1. I am an avoid movie downloader and I have tons of SD cards full of movies I've downloaded. I used to watch them seamlessly on my tablet until recently. I can't recall if this problem started with the new ROM or not but no matter what app I'm using or what movie I'm watching, after a few seconds the audio track will skip and subsequently become drastically out of sync (usually 2-3 seconds or more behind the video which is maddening to me). I have tried multiple apps however I still prefer MX player. I do have the custom ac3 codec but I've tried using the default codec for regular mp4 files, same problem persists. Also, the problem continues whether I'm using a Bluetooth speaker or not. Any help would be greatly appreciate . I've fooled with all the settings I can find in MX, tried VLC, etc. I can't seem to find an answer that had fixed my specific problem. At this point I'm really frustrated and just want it fixed so if the answer had been right under my nose, you can call me an ass, I won't take offense, just please give me the answer lol.

Hello, and welcome to XDA!
I assume you are using this ROM?
If so, here is the corresponding Q&A:
> Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 > Galaxy Note 8.0 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > [Q&A] [ROM][N5110]Cyanogenmod 12.0[12/12/14]
Your developer should be able to assist in this problem. Please note, you will need to be registered for an XDA account in order to post there.
Hope this helps, and good luck!
Hello everyone,
There's a strange problem with the device, I do not know if anyone else has come across it yet. As I know the device supports the flac file.
Both apps do not play flac files.
deezer plays some songs and then pops a message "the requested content is not loading"
This happens both through wfi and when I use the cellular network. I have no problem using a router for 4k content in Netflix. Deezer's technical support says they have no idea what I'm talking about.
I checked the app on Samsung A8 with the same router, the app works great.
I suspect it's something to do with settings, or a software problem.
I've tried so far:
1. Change the application management to manual management
2. Cancel lte volte
3. Delete and reinstall the app
4. Reset device to factory settings
Does anybody have any idea?
Thanks in advance
Not sure about FLAC, but I have Deezer and using with my P20 Pro (Canadian version) and do not have any trouble.
If you give some tips to test FLAC with my phone, I will do it quickly, I am curious.
I was under the impression that Deezer hifi wasn't available through the android app for normal download/streaming. It's only available for streaming to Chromecast or similar. At least that's the only options I have.

no.
deezer offering flac plan for andrid users as well.
this is the only reason i using this app.
tidal app making greater problems with hifi plan
you sould try it yourself.
this isnt happening instantly, its happening after few songs that are playing in the p20 pro.
if you will look in the web and run the error message "The request content cant load" deezer you will see others that reporting it.

My apologies, I am on Deezer Premium Trial and I can not switch to Hifi without being charged full cost.
Really sorry, I am really curious.
Hope someone could test and take us noticed.
I have no option to stream hifi, yet I have the correct account and can stream flac on my pc and squeezebox (ick stream).
And from what I can see from deezer's support android only works through casting to another supported device, otherwise it's 320kbs HQ
support.deezer.com/hc/en-gb/articles/115004588345-Deezer-HiFi
Even deezer's forum has stated that neither iOS or Android support direct steaming in Hifi yet.
en.deezercommunity.com/got-an-idea-9/hifi-compatibility-on-all-devices-1307/index5.html
Are you using your phone with headphones or Bluetooth? Or casting to another device?

thanks for checking it up!
most of the time im streaming it via Bluetooth to my car head unit with no problems
the problems start when im using my p20 pro without streaming (no headphones as well)
question, even if android cant support hifi playing without streaming to another device
why my p20 pro is working and then after few songs getting jam? even more what kind of sound quality my p20 is outputting? cuz im still getting hifi symbol when im playing songs direct from the p20.
have you look at my video? you can see it.
another thing, its not ok that deezer dosent saying anything in the ad that show that hifi plan
its kind of stupid.
Just watched your video, HQ is 320kbs MP3 not flac I'm afraid.
As for the loading issue I can't say I've experienced any problems (UK based if it makes any difference) but I'll have a play and see if I can replicate it.

i think i understand what happen.
i took the hifi plan via pc (this is why you didnt saw hifi plan option in your p20)
i think this is why my p20 is jaming when its playing music.
i didnt notice that hq =mp3
i think that they should have mention the android limitation in the plan page in advance
this is the only reason that i took it. in 2019 its funny that android cant do it direct
i should downgrade my plan
thanks mate
No worries.
I agree it's daft that they have limited their market for their hifi subscription by making it available through a select number of products. It does seem a pretty half-hearted attempt to compete with tidals flac streaming.
But allegedly it's coming......
