Have you enabled the permissions with ADB command in "Advanced Player Tracking" for "Amazon Music" to be discovered in "Known players" ? Why do I need run commands for that to make it work. It should be taken care by the app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxmp Posted December 5, 2020 Author Share Posted December 5, 2020 @Pankajk5 It's taken care by app for players which allow equalization. The equalization support is very easy to add (2 lines of code), but some player developers don't do that, so that's why there is an Advanced tracking mode requiring extra permission.

maxmp Posted December 5, 2020 Author Share Posted December 5, 2020 @M Akmal Equalizer works with apps which present itself as media players (to avoid equalizing everything from ringtone to games), Youtube doesn't do that. It's still possible to make an exception for Youtube and I guess I'll add such support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there will be a support without any external permission in android, I will definitely use it. I am sure there would be a plan for the same.

Newpipe is working fine,so those who don't want adb.. try newpipe and play Yt video or audio by background option below the video. It's good alternative for YouTube ;_; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niteshkr Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 Yes Vanced is better but I mentioned newpipe as it doesn't require adb commands to make Poweramp equalizer work! It works without any issues. I hope vanced comes with external equalizer permission enabled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JosephKH Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 @maxmpI recently found that auto save can't be toggle when in landscape mode of the app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxmp Posted December 7, 2020 Author Share Posted December 7, 2020 Equalizer will recognize app as player if the app posts “media” notification (the notification type with transport buttons and cover). Youtube by default doesn’t do that for me, but some users report it does that for them. I guess Google does A/B(/C/D/E...) testing rollout of features and this is enabled for subset of users.

Rightly said... But there are various alternatives to play YouTube in the Equalizer App like YouTube Vanced and Pi Music Player. Pi music player is recognized on the fly by Equalizer App and does play YouTube very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pankajk5 Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 (edited) @maxmp is there any plan to add this support in future builds or it has to be done via adb command only ?

As far as I know, there is no way for an app to assign itself permissions - that would rather default the purpose of them being permissions. The ADB command is a one-off thing, and actually not that difficult to do, but of course it's easier if you are familiar with using command-line interfaces and./or development tools.

Pankajk5 Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 @andrewilley does this command needs to have fastboot or root access .? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 ADB does not need special / root access. USB Debugging mode is required for some tasks. Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxmp Posted December 8, 2020 Author Share Posted December 8, 2020 @Pankajk5 the equalization support (2 lines of code) should be added to the player app. If player app doesn't send audio session, it means developers don't want equalization for their app, don't care, or not aware of the feature/not enough user requested it. The adb permission is a workaround. Previously Google allowed global equalization on session=0, but they gradually closed/deprecated/broke it in new Androids.

Pankajk5 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 @maxmp usually this should be taken care by you people to check with Android or app developer to see what is the resolution on this to understand it better instead of customer reaching to them . Where we don't have any background what needs to be implemented in the backend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamPA Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 @Pankajk5 I don't agree. Why should @maxmp approach to each app developer. There are plenty of music and media apps. He has already given a workaround solution to enable the equalization in almost any player thro' ADB [android debug bridge]. BTW he has made this app very customizable. If you have any issues in executing the ADB command; We can discuss this on DM/PM. He has already stated its a (2 line code) that should be written in the app made by the developers that should be based on this. I have executed the adb command without hesitation and look below..the equalizer app has discovered every installed player in my phone and specially in MIUI (XIAOMI) phone which is so aggressive in memory management. ADB command has nothing to do with your privacy but all to do with "Notification Listener Permission" for the music apps to be discovered in "Known players". 1 hour ago, Pankajk5 said: @maxmp usually this should be taken care by you people to check with Android or app developer to see what is the resolution on this to understand it better instead of customer reaching to them .

Pankajk5 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 @SamPA will this command can impact any android upgrade or cause any other issue ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamPA Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 (edited) @Pankajk5 Not at all. The command is "adb shell pm grant com.maxmpz.equalizer android.permission.DUMP". Which means it will only grant permission to the equalizer app with package name "com.maxmpz.equalizer". 54 minutes ago, Pankajk5 said: @SamPA will this command can impact any android upgrade or cause any other issue ?

SamPA Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 @Pankajk5 Just read the comments in the forum properly. @maxmp has already said "Equalizer will recognize app as player if the app posts “media” notification (the notification type with transport buttons and cover). Youtube by default doesn’t do that". Just go thro' my my comments and that will guide you to run YouTube and YouTube music via YouTube Vanced.
