is AAC audio works in the fancy music player of Touch Diamond?

Good question. Does anyone have a list of formats that the music player supports?

Ring tone supported formats:
- MP3, AAC, AAC+, WMA, WAV, and AMR-NB

thats from expansys - so i suppose if the ringtone support is ACC you should be able to play them through the media player....

Tried myself today, it works perfectly with all my AAC encoded podcast

[Q] [i9000] m4a audio on 2.3.6 ROM not in media library?

This questions goes to any 2.3.6 ROM user:
Are m4a audio files with valid ID3-tags (Artist, AlbumArtist, Album, CoverArt) scanned and available in MusicPlayer with correct tags?
I know mp3 and ogg audio are picked up by media scanner.
Please note if odexed/deodexed, JV*, JW1 version.
Edit:
Can confirm m4a audio files are working in XXJVU deodexed from Ramad

Am I the only one using m4a audio files?
Thx for reading, press THANKS if u like

The real question here is wether they are supported by the phone...

Media support
The Galaxy S comes with support for many multimedia file formats, including audio codecs (FLAC, WAV, Vorbis, MP3, AAC, AAC+, eAAC+, WMA, AMR-NB, AMR-WB, MID, AC3, XMF), video codecs (mpeg4, H.264, H.263, Sorenson codec, DivX HD/ XviD, VC-1) and video formats (3GP (MPEG-4), WMV (Advanced Systems Format), AVI (divx), MKV, FLV).
...
m4a audio (AAC-codec) are superior to mp3 and have always been supported on I9000.
But as said in OP, media scanner in XXJVU can find m4a tags. B)

Yes it will Xperia 2012 devices already support mkv files
Sent from my LT26i using xda app-developers app

It plays MKV out of the box, but audio support may be an issues. Either way MX Player plays MKV fine with support for most audio formats.

MKV is just a container so the real question would be it's audio and video codec.
Xperia Z/ZL or any high end android phones only support H.263, H.264, DivX, Xvid, 3GPP, 3GP2 I think that should be all the video codec it support. But as the other poster said... Just download MX Video player I use that over any stock video player 99% of the time.

MKV's work, but there are limitations. You can't select what audio track to play, it just uses whatever default track there is. Secondly there is a somewhat limited codec support. Many higher quality MKV's you find in less legal places of the interwebs use AC3 (Dolby) or DTS (or their HD variants) audio codecs which aren't supported. As far as I know it'll only play files with audio in MP3 or AAC, and I'm not sure about multi-channel AAC. Subtitles won't work either. And then some MKV files just randomly refuse to play, but I haven't identified what causes that problem.
There are two solutions:
Either just play everything with MX Player, with the HW or HW+ decoders you still have full hardware support and the benefits of Bravia Engine combined with full support for pretty much all audio codecs, multiple audio tracks and multiple subtitle tracks.
The other solution is to use software to remove unused audio tracks from your MKV's and if necessary recode your preferred audio track to stereo AAC. By far the best software to do that is Avidemux. It allows you to delete and recode streams without affecting other streams. Basically that means you can remove audio tracks you don't need and recode the one you want without having to recode the video, which is extremely fast and with recent CPU's only limited by the disk read/write speed.

Wow such a huge explanation given , well I think my rips combined with MX player will do the trick then and that Avidemux is a little nice tool.
Thanks all ya for your reply , always appreciated.

Recommend me some Handbrake audio settings!

I'm playing local files via Bubble and a plex server. A soundbar is outputting my sound (5.1 with a wireless woofer, nothing special). What would you recommend I do with my dts in Handbrake to get the best sound (direct play compatibility is a must)? AAC (faac) with a higher bitrate and maybe some gain? AAC passthru? Any input would be appreciated. It seems that any handbrake audio searching I do brings up AC3 but that's a no go with our beloved CC.
Regards!

[Q] Is OPUS codec for android anywhere

Are there any Audio codec packs for android available? I am specifically looking for OPUS codec. I have a lot of opus songs and I am currently using Gonemadmp3 player. That and BS player seem to be the only two players supporting Opus right now. If there are codecs available then media monkey for android will also be able to play..

I think there is not any and no eta of when it will be for Android, or if ever will be, because the opus file are just to heavy.

Thanks for the response

Thanks for the response but is there any place where there is a reference to the work on Audio Codecs. (I know BS Player, Neutron Player and Gonemad Music Players support opus formats). But many players use the codecs that come with Android. There is a k-lote codec pack for video codecs but I do not see any such video packs for Audio. Does anybody know if there are any available.
