Continue playing while using a different app - MX Player

Hello, is it possible to continue playback of a video while I am working in another app? I swear I saw that setting somewhere and I have used MX Player previously and I believe that it did that at that time. I don't know if Android has made a change or MX Player but it is really essential I have that capability to hear the sound even when I am working Elsewhere on my phone.
Thank you
David

I think you mean this option:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
It's resizable.
If you have the gestures enabled, instead of the bottom bar, you will need to press the pip button or the android gear settings in order to use it.

[Q] Removing or Overriding stock player control status pull-down Widget

Hi!
I've just bought a new LG Optimus Net Dual (P698f). I know that's not a very popular device, and it's a really new one.
It comes with Android 2.3. And there is this stock player control "widget" in the pull down menu.
Since I'm going to use only PowerAMP (which I've bought for my previous phone), I want to remove this useless widget (that only controls the stock player) or override it with one that controls PowerAMP.
I've already tried freezing the stock player ("Music"), and the widget is still there.
Any suggestions?

Overlay

Hi guys and girls.
just thought id give the app "Overlays" a mention.
Basically it allows you to float any of your installed widgets on top of your screen so that they are still visible when using your apps/browser etc.
The app also allows you to size and set the transparency of the widgets.
Its really easy to use and there is a lite version for you to play with - see more at the XDA portal thread.....
Overlays Thread
Its pretty cool and well worth a shout, especially for us tablet owners :good:

[Q] Something for recent applications?

Is there any mod or anything to change a little bit the screen you get when pressing the Recent soft button on RAZR i?
Thanks in advance.

You can try "Switchr" from Play Store. Its a very intuitive taskswitcher onto which you can pin favorite applications and change the look to three different schemes.
However it has no effect on your usual system taskswitcher. Because of that, apps, you killed with switchr, wont appear killed in the system one. The other way around works.
Switchr is launched by gestures but maybe you could link it to the multitaskkey in your navbar with gravitybox. Just guessing here.
Maybe there are better solutions I'm not aware of.
I hope it helps anyway

play media links - problem

Hi.
I have a question about "Play media links" function.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
It works fine when I encounter mkv videos.
In this case, I see a pop up to choose the desired app. I click on mx player (when I want to watch online) or other app (when I want to download).
However, when I encounter mp4 videos, there is no pop up, mx player starts as a default app and I can't open the link with other app.
Why is that? I don't know how it works with other extensions.
Anyway, I'd like to see this pop up every time not just with mkv videos.
Can you make this possible?

I have a bug, can anyone help me fix it? [S21 FE]

Hi, every time I watch a video on YouTube, listen to WhatsApp voice messages or my mobile phone plays any other sound, when any notification arrives, it happens that for 1 second it goes into do not disturb mode, I put the link of the video of what happens.
Anyone know what it is?
Clear system cache.
WhatsApp shouldn't be on any device, my opinion.
Try looking/testing here...

It's possible a 3rd party app (or malware) has altered hidden user settings. If so and you can't find and correct it, a factory reset may be needed.
