Dual Audio Player
Jennifer Curtis
The reason I am making yet another thread is I have no idea what the developers are doing with regard to issue tracking. Since the Roku Media Player update has a LOT of broken features and bugs, and they don't seem to be rolling it back this time, I have no idea where to be reporting new bugs and issues found. It doesn't seem likely developers are going to see posts buried in the many different threads on the topic, where each thread has a lot of chatter not directly relating to found bugs.
On MKV files with multi audio tracks, it is no longer possible to play anything other than the default track. The original Roku Media Player allowed users to select the track, and even displayed the track names as entered in MKVToolNix/MKVMerge. Now, on the menu brought up by pressing "*" during playback, the "Audio track " option is greyed out, and when highlighting the option, the text above the menu says, "Only the default audio track is available".
MKV was being played via network DLNA. It had three audio tracks - 5.1 surround, stereo, and commentary. Original Roku Media Player handled it fine. Other DLNA clients (smart TV, Blu-Ray player) also handle it fine.
my "solution" was to use avidemux to swap the audio tracks on the videos i have to make the one i want most often to be the first/default audio track. Oy! my sony bravia/android tv's media player does allow the choice of track (however i must note that player is otherwise much worse than RMP otherwise, but they did make some improvements in the sep-2020 sony/android release)
I've also recently investigated audio popping sounds when playing back mkv videos. At first I thought my encodes had distorted audio tracks, but the popping didn't occur on other devices (computer, TV media player, Blu-Ray media player). Yet another issue with RMP 5.
I can access my Western Digital NAS but not the Synology NAS. not sure why, but I have a feeling that it is because the Synology is more secure than the Western Digital. that is unfortunate because the Western Digital was more for backup and the Synology was the working NAS.
Appreciate the update Dathead2, I check the forum every once in awhile to see if they got around to fixing WMP. I must say, your avidemux solution is impressive. I only break out avidemux when I have to fix an audio sync issue...
Use GoodPlayer unless it's a Full HD stream. GP has the best TS support, including changing the audio track. (Make sure you wipe from let to right - or vica versa - while playing to change the track.)
I also have the mp4/f4v files. I can use that. But I need to know if Safari/Quicktime on my iPhone/iPad has the capability to recognise such a m3u8 and let me pick which audio to play. Will this work with HLS?
My problem is not playback of .ts files. That is happening fine. My problem is if I have a video with alternate audio tracks can Safari/Quicktime play this? If yes how does the user select which audio file to play?
If you can't directly download, enter the URL in GoodPlayer. Hopefully it WILL be able to download the file instead of just streaming it. Then, you'll be able to play it in any player capable of track switching.
The Envoy 2 S Dual is the ideal solar powered audio Bible for those who are providing content in two languages and/or desire to provide the Bible along with accompanying teaching or commentary.
The Envoy 2 S is the ideal solar powered audio Bible for those who are providing content in only one language. It is the most simple and lowest cost solar powered audio player that can hold a full Bible or up to 800 hours* of audio content. The benefit of the Envoy 2 S is that it is Solar, Simple and Suitable for one language.
The Envoy S has for years been the most popular audio Bible for many field applications and by those who are blind and visually impaired. The Envoy 2 S now brings a new level of durability and sound quality.
The Envoy 2 ST is the lowest cost and simplest to use solar powered secure audio player available. It holds up to 800 hours* of high quality audio content, such as the New Testament, sermons, music, etc. The ST is often the player of choice for pairing with the MegaVoice Wildlife STORYTELLERS.
The Wildlife STORYTELLERS have been used to bring the Message of hope, peace and love in a very cuddly and tangible way to those who are most vulnerable and often neglected. For more information, click here.
The Envoy 2 S Dual, S, and ST are advanced, solar powered audio players currently offered by MegaVoice. These versatile, multi-content units comes fully loaded with an audio player, intuitive navigational keypad, 4GB or 512MB internal memory, onboard speaker, 3.5mm stereo audio jack, 390mAh internal Li-Ion battery, and a lanyard hole.
Each player in the Envoy 2 S Series comes equipped with an onboard speaker (for small group listening) and a 3.5mm stereo audio port (for earbuds, headphones, an external speaker or even a Bluetooth transmitter).
The solar panel, included with each player, charges the internal Li-Ion battery making the players ideal for areas of the world where electricity is unavailable or unreliable. For those with access to electrical power, the Envoy 2 S Series players can also be charged via their micro USB port using an external power supply or a computer. Activating the battery reader feature will show how much battery charge is left. The LED light will blink green, yellow or red depending on the level of battery charge remaining.
Each player is small, lightweight, and heat resistant up to 150 degrees. Used in challenging environments all over the world, MegaVoice audio players are renowned for in-field durability. The same robust, hard-shell technology deployed in our players for decades remains standard in the new Envoy 2 S Series. Enhanced water resistance is a new addition to each player, allowing safe use in wetter areas.
Then I'd have a button that allows users to switch between audio tracks, even as the video is playing; and the correct audio track would come to life (without the video pausing or starting over or anything; much like a DVD audio track selection).
I can do this quite simply in Flash, but I don't want to. There has to be a way to do this in pure HTML5 or HTML5+jQuery. I'm thinking you'd play all the audio files at 0 volume, and only increase the volume of the active track... but I don't know how to even do that, let alone handle it when the user pauses or rewinds the video...
Synchronization between audio and video is far more complex than simply starting the audio and video at the same time. Sound cards will playback at slightly different rates. (What is 44.1 kHz to me, might actually be 44.095 kHz to you.)
Instead, I propose that you encode the video multiple times, with the different streams. You can use FFMPEG for this, and even automate the process, depending on your workflow. Switching among streams becomes a problem, but most video players are robust enough to guess the byte offset in the file, when given the bitrate.
If you're willing to let all five tracks download, why not just mux them into the video? Videos are not limited to a single audio track (even AVI could do multiple audio tracks). Then syncing should be handled for you. You'd just enable/disable the audio tracks as needed.
