playback: use custom exoplayer 
Use a custom ExoPlayer fork with the FLAC extension enabled. This
greatly improves the listening experience, as it enables metadata
support on OGG files and FLAC files to be played below API 27.

About

Auxio is a local music player with a fast, reliable UI/UX without the many useless features present in other music players. Built off of Exoplayer, Auxio has a much better listening experience compared to other apps that use the native MediaPlayer API. In short, It plays music.

I primarily built Auxio for myself, but you can use it too, I guess.

Building

Auxio relies on a local version of ExoPlayer that enables some extra features. So, the build process is as follows:

  1. Change into the project directory
  2. Run python3 prebuild.py, which installs ExoPlayer and it's extensions.
  3. Build the project normally in Android Studio.

Contributing

Auxio accepts most contributions as long as they follow the Contribution Guidelines.

However, feature additions and major UI changes are less likely to be accepted. See Accepted Additions for more information.
