@青荷芷烟 not sure how exactly that app shares the audio, but there was a bug in the core Android which prevented sharing audio if Unlocker is installed (the Google dev who programmed that share functionality was not aware of shared uid feature of Android). This is bugged up to Android 13. May be uninstalling Unlocker will help.

@andrewilley it should always open 3rd party app on long press (at least it will attempt to open lyrics app - that can be further blocked by the system - but this is out of Poweramp scope).

@gedster314 if this question is about Equalizer app, then the actual player is in charge of audio, and Equalizer just attaches system-managed DSP to that player audio output. What is the player?

@andrewilley the track menu lyrics item tries to open 3rd party lyrics app, there is no logic to open Poweramp lyrics UI for a long press on it. I've just added similar functionality for the on-cover lyrics button.

(Track) menu / Lyrics button long press always uses 3rd party app/plugin for lyrics. I'll also update the track cover Lyrics button to support that long press functionality as well.

@ihaspei thanks for the report.

@StrengthByBeats you probably see results of bitmap filtering vs non-filtering. Filtering (when downscaling) will produce smoother, slightly softer image. Non-filtered scaling will keep more details, but the contrasting edges may be visually rough (aliased). It's possible to add option to enable/disable filtering, at least for the downscaling.

@Iamman this may happen in DVC mode if phone delays volume intents. So you change volume - system changes volume - the volume event delayed - Poweramp receives volume event and changes volume. So you can hear this delay. The delay obviously shouldn't happen.

@andrewilley the planned lyrics editor will provide offset change per song. Lyrics editor as seen in some other players won't work for Poweramp (as like half of formats won't be supported and Poweramp users won't tolerate songs "broken" to unplayable state by the lyrics editing), so it will take some considerable time to implement, so may be that per-song offset option should be added earlier, if needed.

@StrengthByBeats Poweramp specifically scales images so they are within your screen physical pixels density. There is no point of loading and showing 3000px image on 1024px width screen (minus paddings) - it will be scaled down anyway. 3000x3000 image will take 36mb (recent Androids with optimized hardware bitmaps) to 72mb (older Androids, these tend to keep same image 2 times in the memory). While app is allowed to take like 128-256mb max, so Poweramp will trash image cache more frequently for the larger images.

The next beta includes the new "Lyrics Time Offset" option with -5000..5000 ms range, which is applied in addition to [offset:] tag and Visualization/Lyrics per-output latency option.

@mOuStAcHe_BR I increased max. waiting time to 20sec for the next build. Thanks for the request!

@andrewilley offtopic, but it was gradually converted to a smarter gapless related silence eliminator (the primary target of that silence detector was a better gapless). If there is a place for the independent silence detector it can be easily readded.

@Athez there is the "Silence between tracks" option. Not sure why you may need the "before" silence.

@eddie_the_man app stores, including Play do not allow final versions, we can't issue v1.00, then v2.00, etc. as this is considered a "spam" and app (and often whole developer account) gets banned. So it's always a single app being developed constantly, with closed/alpha/beta versions being available as well. Also, it's not possible to set any dates for even an intermediate stable version as number of features, options, and overall work required to make it is unknown.

@Zyntaxys there will be an additional global offset option (in additional to LRC [offset:] and Visualization/Lyrics delay options), but it won't make desync LRC file (which was generated for the different edition of the song, probably) to sync song properly. The LRC editor is planned as well for those who want to directly edit their LRCs.

@devin2fire 1. reboot phone once. 2. ensure no other equalizer app enabled/installed. Thanks!

@andrewilley@ihaspei I'll exclude these sub-categories from the showing track number, thanks for the request.

@Webtroter the problem with such "formats" is that they are not documented, probably used only internally by some app, and subject to change at any time. If that has some defined specs/docs, feel free to share. Thanks!

The cover is _the album_ art, so if that song is in some album, you're changing that particular album art, not just the song cover. If the song is a single, category image still can be changed if the new image fits that category better (for example, it's higher resolution, or located closer to the song in case of folders, etc.). As artist images also sourced from the songs of that artist, changing that artist song may change the artist image too - if the image is considered "better" than the previous one (or if forced via "Also use for ..." checkbox in images selection popup).

@Wolksby @andrewilley from Poweramp point of view, there are no wireless, BT, USB, or wired connections. There is just single audio "sink" (native AudioTrack API or AAudio) which is used (except Chromecast output, which is non managed by the system). Android routes audio signal internally as it seems fit, this routing is hidden from the app, and it's even hard to get the actual output info and its features, as routing info is often buggy, spreaded over a few different APIs, and/or very firmware/Android dependent (though, it's now better on the recent Androids). Poweramp has no permissions to change audio route - this is system level/root only permission. There are few hacks which can be used to e.g. force switch speaker off (Force Speaker Off for Hi-Res Output option), but nothing more. On the recent Androids and on Samsung firmwares the routing can be changed via the media notification: Also, Android Auto UI and audio is rendered on the phone and then compressed either to video + bt audio or to video + audio in one stream. Audio is usually lossy re-compressed in both cases, though there is no public documentation/specification on this and it may vary across devices/firmwares/headunits.

@GeilerHeinz if you want to investigate what's wrong, try to send log either from Developer options (prefered) or from Poweramp -> Settings -> Support (and PM me here), so I can check what's blocking this option for you.

@Dragolth thanks for that detail. The bug itself causing this is in the firmware (OneUI6.0 uses non-standard "cached" resources, which already broken some other localization related logic) and the external screen apps is an experimental feature of the OneUI which is obviously not tested/polished in the firmware yet. If it's possible to workaround it - it will be done for the next beta, otherwise we have to wait for the fix from Samsung.

@andrewilley right, added that logic without option, though option is still possible if ever requested.

Poweramp v1-v2 (before alpha 700) used fixed point DSP, but only because some early Android devices had no FPU or it was too slow. When doing +15dB or more amplification on low frequencies, some biquad coefficients and intermediate values may require higher (than Float32, or, e.g. Q8.24 fixed) resolution to avoid adding any noise or intermediate clipping. Other than that, "normal" float32 is enough.
