For the TF700, can someone please recommend a media player that allows output of multichannel audio (i.e. 5.1) over the HDMI connection? I would like to play movies through a Samsung Home Theater System and MX Player is only outputting Stereo (I think) no matter what the audio format is. A separate codec would work as an option too. Any help or fix would be appreciated. Thanks.
Hi all,
is there any video player out there which has option of 5.1 audio downmix to stereo while playback?
I am using MX player currently and audio output is really low on my high end ear phone while playing a video which has 5.1 audio
while playing videos with stereo sound and mp3, aac audio ... sound is great.
I dont want to get into conversion, muxing and play.
pls help.

select s/w decode for audio on mx player.so you will get higher volume.
Hi Devs,
I have custom codecs installed in my MX player and I have no issues playing local files with aac audio. But when I play a hls stream with aac audio, the sound is disabled by default. In order to enable the sound I should manually open sound menu and tick the checkbox of "use software decoder" and select the audio steam. As this doesn't happen for local files I believe it should be a bug. Let me know if you need any more info.
Regards
Edit : I checked again and noticed my local file audio codec is AC-3 and network steam codec is AAC. So they are not having the same audio codec. May be the problem is AAC audio codec. My device is nexus 10 running stock android lollipop.
I'm having this same problem (with version 1.7.33, could not make 1.7.34 work) both with local (SD) and network (NAS) versions of the same files. All audio will work however if I turn the S/W audio decoder switch on. See my thread about the problem here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/mx-player/aac-h-decoder-version-1-7-33-t2955189 .
My problem with AAC (streamed from a NAS) has been solved with published version 1.7.34 without the need of any special setting, thanks to devs for fixing it!
The problem has been resolved for me as well Thanks devs.

AAC audio pass through is not supported at the moment.
But, ac3 should work. If you have custom codecs, kindly remove it & check again.

DTS audio track is already passed through HDMI if the target device support DTS decoding.

Pass through will be done only when there is no system or internal decoders.
Are you using any custom codecs? If you are using any custom codecs, audio won't be passed through as there is a FFmpeg side decoder. If you are not using any custom codecs, probably your system itself has support for ac3/dts.
Anyway, It will be improved in future.

Hello
We are November 2021, and the problem remains. I have a Sony XR65A90J and while the native Sony video player sends 5.1, MX Player sends only 2.0 for the same files obviously.
Please help
Hi everyone i have a problem with mx firestick 4k i can't adjust the audio pass. Amazon stick is inserted directly into the 2019 ts nr 696 model amplifier which supports all audio formats. Ms player on another android on egreat a 10 works great also goes hdmi cable through the amplifier and there application automatically when the sound is dolby digital or atmos or dts-x or truehd automatically switch to the amplifier sound.
But on firestick 4k I can't get this only dolby digital 2.0
Could this be fixed with an update would be greatly appreciated!
Many greetings from Zoran!:good:

Hi,
We would like to let you know that MX Player only enables audio passthrough mode only when the system reports the audio capability of the connected received. Based on the information you have provided, it seems that the FireTV stick doesn't report the HDMI audio capabilities properly. However, we will investigate this further and do our best to get a workaround if possible. Meanwhile, your patience is appreciated.
