[Q] Music player with 5.1 ch sound?

I love the stock music player that came with my galaxy s because of it's ability to play music in 5.1 ch.
However, I have now flashed the latest MIUI to my sgs but the music player is not able to play music in 5.1 ch, so I was wondering if anyone of you guys know an app that can do this?
Thanks

5.1ch is just a sound effect. You can get it on any player app with basic tweaks to the equalizer settings.

Ah, I see. Does anyone have any tips on how to achieve this with an eq?

With 5.1ch people usually mean that instead of stereo (which is 2 channels, left + right) you have 4 additional channels (Center + Back left + Back Right + LFE or Bass (.1))
Your phone only has one speaker so I'm not sure how you want to achieve this.
The audio output is only capable of sending out stereo as well.
A source file with multi-channel audio is usually in *.vob format (DVD video format) but I know of no player that will show this on Android (except for the Archos Gen8 stock video player).
Audio only files would typically be in *.wav or *.ac3 format but same here, I know of no player that will play these multi-channel streams.
Perhaps I misunderstood your question?

im sure you can find a port for the stock galaxy s player in this forum

The stock galaxy s music player was able to simulate 5.1 ch (when headphones were plugged in) which provided a very nice boost in sound quality. What I'm looking for is either a port of that music player to MIUI or another music player that is able to do the same thing (or some eq settings that does it would also be fine).

I have yet to find one that actually installs on my phone

That option is a load of bull XD.When you listen you only have 2 speakers assuming you are using earplugs which makes 2.0 the highest you can achieve. You shouldn't bother about it... just a stupid tweak that imho makes the sound sound worse...

your comment is a load of bull.. no offence here. But the guy is asking for something dont tell him if its bad or not. He likes it other people like it some dont like it you find it bull. But he doesnt comment you on that does he?

And yes i find the sound nice to. And like other people said there are ways to get this trough EQ settings but so far i havnt got it the same as the stock player one

All I was saying that the option is stupid and it's fake it doesnt provide 5.1ch surround sound and I thought he was thinking that and I was helping his out of his dream (read his 3rd post... this is the case here..). If this is the case my comment is valuable if this isn't well.. he'll just do nothing with the information... It's a win anyway, he has nothing to lose, playing around with a EQ is way better ;/. Install voodoo sound tbh if you want a good musical experience...

The 5.1ch option was not stupid, even though it was fake. It made the sound much clearer and better on all headphones I used.
Will look into voodoo sound, thanks for the tip.

I had 5.1 available when I was using a gingerbread version I got from here. Now I can't seem to find one Pretty sure it was Calkulon or something along those lines. It was way better sound (with headphones) in my opinion, so I'm trying to find a current version that will deliver that "fake" surround

On a side note, I got Jellybean using a vid a watched from QBking77 on youtube, and he references you guys alot.
There are some bugs with Jelly Bean... For instance my mic cuts out when I hold the phone to my face and the screen goes off. Bluetooth headset... NOT A CHANCE lol. On speakerphone i can talk just fine. Headset, works great too. Sometimes I have to pull the battery because the screen dims. But for the most part, it works great.

[Q] Xperia play custom rom with mono output in accessibility options.

Hi there, this is my first post and I couldn't find any similar topic.
I'm planning to buy a XP, but there's a deal breaker for me: the mono output with headphones, a feature which I found in my friend's Galaxy SIII when it had ICS. It would be extremely useful, for I am deaf from one hear and I would use my headphones a lot while gaming/listening to music/watching videos. So the question is, can someone with a custom ICS/JB rom tell me if this feature is available in the accessibility options? Thanks in advance for the answer. And sorry for my bad English...

Just bumping this thread, hoping someone will be abke to answer my question.

Man I'm deaf from one hear too, but I never saw such an option in a rom
However I found a way to partially solve this: download this app from play store (it's an equalizer app, really useful) and enable virtualizer
Let me know if it works for you

First, my most sincere thanks for replying: I was afraid that no one could answer my question.
About the app, I don't have any Android phone at the moment to check the app out (my friend is on a vacation), but I was wondering, does it work only as an mp3 player or with every phone's sound too? For example, if I was playing Chrono Trigger (a game that I love, as you can see from my avatar ), and I was fighting against Lavos last form, would I be able to listen to the boss music with the audio set on mono? Thanks in advance for the answer, and thanks again for the reply! :victory:
EDIT: what I mean is if it works system wide (making it possible to use Spotify, Pandora, Youtube, games/emulators and other apps with mono output)

[Q] LG G3 192kHz/24bit or NOT??

I just got my G3, which I've been eagerly awaiting. Main reason I bought this was my understanding it would support 192kHz/24 bit audio like the G2. However, any attempt to play anything higher than 96kHz, plays back in MONO.
I have just spent 90 minutes with T-Mo support and then LG - both were clueless. So I hoping some of you kind folks would check this out on your phone, if you can.
Hi-res files that play fine on my PC, play in Mono on the G3. The same file converted to 96kHz/24bit format play in stereo. I am using WAV annd FLAC files. Thanks to all! - FRUSTRATED NEW OWNER

Have you read this? http://people.xiph.org/~xiphmont/demo/neil-young.html ?
Apparently humans can't even hear the difference. It's more of a gimmick.
What kind of headphones are you using that you think 24/192 will benefit you?
I'm not sure why it's not working though.

Argh... Why'd you go and post that article? I just spent 15mins reading it all and it's soooooo long.... :crying:
Don't get me wrong, it's informative and predicated on evidence and I was curious, but soooooo long. And I actually read it all. Why did I do that?
Now I think I'm hearing things.... :silly:
Sorry to go OT, but the sounds told me to do it. :victory:

I really don't want to get into a discussion of the value of 24/192 - it's a feature that I paid for and frankly the thing that sold me on the LG. And I am amazed that even LG Tech Support is clueless as to whether this is supported or not... I had to educate them about sampling rates!
So, I downloaded a 3rd party player (Neutron) and another which I can't recall. They WERE able to play my hi-res files in stereo, so it appears Google Play is buggy.

So the native G3 music player is what's buggy? Not the G3 hardware itself, correct?

Yes, my 24/176k files I loaded played in stereo using two different 3rd party players; but in mono using the stock Google play app. :good:

Good point! Hopefully LG fixes the stock app.

Google Play isn't the stock music app. My G3 plays the files in stereo with a hi-def tag for anything over 96k

Need LG Music player for CM13

Hi all,
I have a H811 T-Mobile G4 and I've just installed CM13 ROM on it. All things seems good but I really need the stock music player for some functions that not included in Music app of CM rom.
Exactly I need 2 functions: 1st one is to play tracks in the same folder and 2nd one is to change the speed when playing a track. (for learning english).
I tried so many apps but I felt they were not same as stock LG app.
Can anyone help me?
Thank you!

Loud mp3 player

Hello
I want to use my Xperia M only as mp3 player.
Does someone know a rom with loud mp3 player?
At this moment i use last linage rom, resurrection remix i tried too.
All "Boost mp3" apps dont work.
Thank you
feuerossi

You'll need a soundmod, try this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/soundmod-6-0-hana-audio-engine-for-xperia-m.3524294/
(please note that I never tried this mod so don't know if it'll improve volume, but I was satisfied with Sony sound enhancements port by wolmannight (?) I think (not sure, my device died in april 2019))
Don't forget to make a backup before flashing

Thank you, will try it tomorrow.
The App "Super Loud Speaker" from Google Play Store works too, but perhaps Hana will be better.
I will reply

Doesnt work with my Aosp version.
