Mx player would be more great with an equalizer and some sound effects.We would like to see this in your next upgrade.it will make us rooted since quality sound says it all.
It would be better if MX player comes with a 7 band equalizer and bass boost and virtualizer.
Imagine ur fav video player with Dolby surround.
i also think the same...it would be a great video player with equalizer setting...
Which of these two sound mod apps do you prefer? They are almost the same in regards of their effects in audio, but people could still hear which app gives the better sound.
Dolby Atmos
Dolby Digital Plus
Man I've been waiting for this for about a month. Others have been waiting for YEARS!!
Previously if you tried to play a file with Atmos audio the sound would be extremely choppy and unplayable. With the latest update you can now enjoy watching 4k 2160p TrueHD Atmos 7.1 without any problems.
I can't remember if MX Player was able to support Atmos but I didn't go with it as it doesn't fully support HDR10.
All these apps wouldn't be needed if Sony just supported all the sound files to be played on the native Album app but oh well.

PIP for oreo has also been added so thats handy too I guess. Thanks for the heads up.
Hello XZP land!
I've had mine for a while (since launch actually), and I really love the device. However, I've come upon a conundrum that I think needs some technical elbow grease (which I am not skilled to do).
I own some Hi Res audio, and my favorite player (Neutron), as well as some others, supports playback of it. The thing is, the XZP doesn't show as having the ability to, according to this Neutron thread on the matter Hi Res in Neutron. Our devices currently do not offer the Hi-Res options.
Qualcomm on their site for our chipset says;
Developed by an audio technology leader, Qualcomm Aqstic audio codec (WCD 9340/9341) supports high-resolution standards that recording studios use to master tracks, creating a pure audiophile listening experience. It has an integrated DAC (digital-to-analog converter) that supports native Direct-Stream Digital (DSD) and pulse-code modulation (PCM) Hi-Fi audio playback. DSD is a standard found on Super Audio Compact Discs (SACDs), and the Qualcomm Aqstic audio codec can decode DSD files natively. The DAC on the Qualcomm Aqstic codec has ultra-low Total Harmonic Distortion plus Noise (THD+N), which means no additional noise or signal is added for the most authentic sound reproduction. The Qualcomm Aqstic codec is also designed to give you the highest dynamic range available, so you can feel the dramatic change of volume and emotion in your favorite music.
SO I know the chipset can do it.
Now, Sony provided us with the "DSEE HX" quality audio setting... and it says "upgrade quality of compressed music files to 'NEAR' Hi Res'". Meh, okay, so you can muck around with compressed files and make em sound better. I don't believe that resolves my issue, and enables anything firmware wise.
I believe this means we need to enable the feature via firmware and bypass Sony's attempt at audio features in their DRM space. Has anyone been able to enable this in Neutron? How's your Hi-Res playback?

Why not just use the stock Sony music player for hi res playback? Hi res audio files have been supported since the Z2 and onwards. You can just use the Sony music player for hi res and neutron for everything else. I think that its auto enabled by default within the Sony music player. When you see the "HR" logo on the album art I suppose that means its enabled.
If your trying to enable the same thing in neutron and it doesnt work because theres a toggle. Id blame the creators of the app or simply Google for the lack of support. It can be one of 2 things stopping it from working for you. The android os or the app itself. I dont use neutron personally and never have. Ive always used the Sony one after I gave up on poweramp. I wouldnt blame the device itself. Its just like my issue of vulkan support whereby apps cant see that the device does support it. In that case I would blame Google. This is as much help as I can offer.
Hi-Res is enabled out of the box with the in-built Sony Music application and contrary to what RJASSI21 said, the HR logo does not appear on all Hi-Res audio tracks album art, only on 24bit Hi-Res tracks album art and I have been using Hi-Res audio on my Z5P and my XZP but I have only ever used the Walkman/Music app provided by Sony and it works.

Thanks to both of you for the info. I am going to see if I can get the Neutron dev to add the libraries or whatever's needed to get that app where I want it.

Much appreciated! I was looking for these Neutron settings on the XZP too since they were n my LG V10 (before it died on me last week). Neutron music player has been my go to player for several years now so here's hoping we get some positive updates soon.
Thank you!
There was an update to Neutron for Oreo support yesterday and now I can finally see the Hi-Res Codec and Hi-Res Speaker options.
