I use MX Player to listen audio like audiobooks and podscasts 90% of the time and I rewind a lot but for example with the galaxy buds and with a lot of headphones/earbuds is:
2 taps = next
3 taps = previous
I have in settings the option "Treat Next/Prev media buttons as FF/Rew button." checked but 99% of the time I want to go back but they register only two taps and go forward
Would there be a way to invert those actions with MX Player so its 2 taps for rewind and 3 taps for forward?

This is probably the most useful feature for me. I really miss it coming from cyanogenmod. Basically with screen off, you can control next and previous songs by long pressing the volume buttons. It is not available in stock of course. I tried several music apps but no luck. Anyone know of another way?
=.=...not I know off ATM.....

Lmt launcher. Set gesture or pie button to activate back/forward key. Going to do this now
Make sure to set min gesture score/path length lower (50 and 5 work well). Device input 2 is what works for our phone.
Right now I have:
square and diamond for pause/play (key 85)
rightDouble for next song (key 87)
leftDouble for previos (key 88)
updownDouble and downupDouble for wifi toggle
works very well outside of chrome. you'll need to hit the omnibar and then the gesture for it work in chrome

do you know of an app that let skips song just with the volume buttons ??
Firstly i'm using lots of different music and video players and i only encounter this problem on Mx Player.
Problem is when i'm watching some video and i press 'Next' or 'Prev' buttons on the steering wheel it changes to next or previous video but at the same time it shows a soundbar and changes it's value. For example while 'Next' button decreases that soundbar 'Prev' button increases it's value. Strange thing is that soundbar doesnt effect system sound. I mean the soundbar shows when i use volume Up or down buttons. It effects Poweramp's volume bar.
In any other media player, "Next" and "Prev" buttons on my steering wheel only changes the song or video. Not volume bar.
I tried every combination of settings but couldn't solve this.
Any recommendations?

MX Player responds to the standard android key events. If it receives the volume up command, it will increase the volume. If it receives the Next command, It will play the next video.
Immediately after reproducing the issue, Can you collect a bug report from MX Player help menu and share here?
In >Settings >Controls >Key Up/Down Action the 2 options are change sound volume or change brightness. Would be nice to have a third option to do nothing or disable any function from happening when up/down is pressed during playback. I've used MX for years and find the volume is accidentally set below max quite often. Thanks for reading!
Just realized there is a recent post about this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/mx-player/ui-ux-tweaks-to-make-mx-player-perfect-t3940592
I agree with OathYvne and wanted to also mention that navigating up from bottom control buttons/progress bar will highlight the video (or an invisible button) causing an extra keystroke. Best android player by far!

Probably a faq:
I’ve installed power amp, and want that to launch instead of the stock music player when hitting the music button. Power amp is working ok.
Don’t see a way to add new actions in button key study factory settings.
Don’t see a way to over-ride the behavior of the existing music action listed in the button key study.
Beyond that question, seems the builtin music app needs to be left running (background) in order for steering wheel button presses to trigger track forward/etc in power amp. How to fix to no longer need the default music app?
As above, the play/pause and back forward buttons don't respond. I have to go to settings and toggle the Player>Media Buttons option.
It then works for a while then stops again when shuffle is selected which is a pain.
Seems only to be an issue with MX, works perfectly on Poweramp, Spotify etc.
Thanks
