Saving ratings to tags was not listed in the update list for 564, which just contained the three bug fixes referred to in post #5, (Post #5??? Where has the rest of this thread gone to?)

Hello,

I have a problem with Poweramp v2.0.9. build 564, where me when my headset buttons do not work - pause / play and previous / next. In previous versions of me it worked right, you can help me in setting or do I have to wait for the new update, where it will no longer work as intended. I own a cell phone LG G3 version D855.

Excuse my English I am from Czech Republic and I am writing through the compiler.

Thank you for your response.

Regards

Tomas Lenoch

Hi, some time ago I updated my Motorola XT890 to official beta version of Android 4.4.2. After that Poweramp plays noticeable quieter than rest players (Aimp, BubbleUPNP, Folder Player) and in my opinion quality of sound is worse. I have second XT890 on stock 4.1.2 and it's working fine, sound is like on every other player.
I tried trick with DVC MusicFX and few others found on this forum and XDA and still no luck. Problem is on headphones and Bluetooth. I have no other equalizers than stock (which is turned off) and no other sound improvement apps.

Hope it can be fixed.

Try disable DVC for Bluetooth;

Settings > Audio > Advanced Tweaks > BT Direct Volume Control

[Chamelleon]

Done, but no effect. When I turn off DVC for headphones audio is more quieter than usual and worse quality than normal. When I have DVC On every system sound like keyboard, screen lock etc. making volume jumping up for a second and back to normal. When I turn off DVC problem with system sound disappear but like I said music is worse quality and quieter.

Is EQ turned on of off? Try turning up the preamp to the highest available setting, also try turning on the "limiter".

[Chamelleon]

EQ is turned off. When preamp is higher than middle sound is really distorted. No difference when limiter is on or off except reset of preamp when I turn limiter. I tested almost every player from Play Store and only Poweramp and Smart Audiobook Player has this problem.

That's strange because if DVC is turned off, the preamp is disabled/doesn't do anything so long as EQ is disabled.

[Chamelleon]

Will x86 version be updated?? I'm still forced to use GMMP cause Poweramp sounds really bad.

[andrewilley]

Out of curiosity, will the standard dark skins (Default and Black Neon) be updated to HD too? I don't much like the lighter colour schemes, but so far it's only those ones which are included in the new HD skin pack.

Is the latest version on Google Play store? Because Google Play here in Japan lists 2.0.9-build-564-play as the latest, relased on 15th Sep.

No, you need to download the latest versions from the first post in this forum until they are migrated to Google. Part of the reason is to allow the folks here a bit of time to test and report any issues before a more widespread release to several million users.

Default and Black Neon themes uses HD resources - i.e. there is graphics for xhdpi, xxhdpi, and xxxhdpi screens included (into Poweramp itself).

Thanks. I get the idea

[LordChilde]

This version is inferior because "player UI bottom action bar" has either been removed or wasn't in it in the first place.

[maxmp]

We don't change Poweramp sound engine in v2.0 and Poweramp can't sound bad unless you "tweaked" Equ/Tone/Other audio options in it too much - in this case it's recommended to reset with Long press on Reset button in Equalizer screen.

These are mostly Lollipop and related fixes and polishings, which are not actual for x86 platform, but we'll do an update for x86 when 2.0.10 is stabilized (probably in a week or so).

Thanks!
