I have updated Mx player pro in my updated Android 10.
Issue - When I pause a song, Mx player icon disappears from notification after 2 - 3 minutes . I want it to stay so that I can start the song again easily from notification panel. (Background play is enabled both in settings of song

is there a music player out there that doesnt pause while using headphones when a sms/mms/email or when the notification goes off? i had this feature when i had my nexus one with cyanogen froyo last year. i had music player by social soft installed and it didnt pause when my notification went off, it would just ring thru while listing to music. if there isnt a player that does this, can someone make a player that does or a way to disable this little frustrating bug? i know can avoid by setting my notifications to silent but i dont want that. someone please all of us that hate this
I'm confused - do you want a player that STOPS when a notification goes off or one that AUTO RESUMES after a notification is received?
IIRC - Poweramp (my player of choice) auto resumes after a notification, so try that.

Hey guys, I've posted this inside of a thread in the Nexus 4 forums before, but no-one else seemed to have this issue. It seems to persist in the Nexus 5. Essentially what's happening is my music levels stay low after a notification sound plays while my music is on pause. Should a different notification play after I've resumed playback, the music levels get restored to original levels. Maybe a list will outline what happens better than typing it out:
1. Listening to music
2. Pause music for any reason
3. Notification sound plays while music is paused
4. Resume music playback
5. The music levels are low, meaning I must ramp up the volume to achieve same sound level (for the Media sound slider only!)
6. Another notification comes in while music is playing again
7. Immediately after notification sound ends, music levels get restored to original, louder state

Now, what normally happens when a notification sound plays during the playback of music, is the music levels drop, the notification sound plays, and then the music levels return to their normal levels. When this issue happens, the music levels don't come back up if the music is on pause, even after un-pausing and re-pausing the music, meaning that there should be an event firing right after the notification sound that isn't, when the music is paused. Can anyone else try to recreate this? What could be the cause of this? Any solution? If it makes any difference, I've only been able to test with Pandora for music and Hangouts and Google Voice app for notifications.
Oh, here are some more observations that I've noticed that are important and almost forgot to mention:
1. This happens only if I have a song queued on Pandora. That means having Pandora open and have a song already playing, then pause it. I can't just boot up my phone, receive a notification, and the Media sound levels will be low.
2. The levels fix themselves not only upon another notification paying while music playback has resumed, it also comes back upon the end of the song. Once a new song is downloaded from Pandora and starts playing, the levels fix themselves.
3. The levels also fix themselves if I force quit Pandora while the music levels are down. Does this mean it's an issue with Pandora?
4. Probably goes without saying, but I can fix them by rebooting my phone.

Hello,
I use a pair of true wireless Soul X-shock earphones to listen to seminars when out jogging etc using background playback. (Samsung Galaxy S7 and MX Player Pro)
The play/pause function (on the earphones) works as it should if there is less than an approx 5 minute delay between button presses...
However, when the video is pause is longer than 5 minutes I find the resume function on my earphones no longer operate and background playback of the video is completely halted.
Not only that, when resuming playback on my phone screen and then pressing the home button or lock screen the video does not play in the background as it should.
I have found the only way to remedy this is to force quit MX Player Pro directly and start it up again. That way the background playback function behaves like normal again.
The problem also happens immediately if I put my ear phones back into the charging case and take them out to use them again.
I am able to use spotify without issue taking my ear phones on and off but MX Player Pro behaves very differently.
I have also noticed the background playback for MX Player Pro on the notifications bar gets killed after about 5 minutes of no playback, requiring a full restart of the app before it can come back again.
I have already added MX Player Pro to the power saving exceptions list but the issue still happens.
Is there anyway to fix this via settings or via new update?

Thanks for your feedback. When you pause the playback manually, MX Player will no longer use the foreground service. So, the system may kill the app to reclaim the resources if it is required for some other process. Once it's killed by the system, it may not be able to receive the media button controls. So, you can't resume the playback from the headset. However, everything should work as expected when you open the app again. If you found any abnormal behaviour, kindly provide us with more info so that we can investigate it further for you.
Is there a way to keep a face widget expanded after turning off the screen and then keeping it expanded once the screen is turned off/on instead of clicking on the widget again?
I like the music player once it's expanded and want to keep it that way while I have music playing. This way the player buttons come down more on the screen and more accessible + show the artwork.
Attachments:
Lockscreen with the normal music player and the other is single-tap on the player to show the album cover.
On the plus side, Spotify now works with this music player.
Before my Galaxy S9 upgraded to Android 10 I could leave MX Player Pro running in the background and pull down the notification bar to pause, stop or play.
Now, with all the settings the same there is a notification beep every few seconds if I navigate away from the player screen. The only way I can find to disable this is to turn off Download playback in Notifications, but then the controls are no longer there if I pull down the Notifications bar and I have to navigate back to the player screen to pause, stop or play.
Any advice is greatly appreciated, thanks.
