What’s new in ElevenMPV-A 5.04
Since the last time we mentioned ElevenMPV a few months ago (that was version 4.00 back then), a lot of stuff happened. Version 5.00 in particular has seen a full rewrite of the code for better performance.

- Added full integration with Quick Menu.
Performance:
- Playback in sleep mode is now more power efficient.
- Loading of covers is performed asynchronously now.
- Flac decoder performance has been greatly improved.
New features:
- Added support for easy localization of the application. Application automatically selects language based on system language.
UI and controls:
- Application can now be fully controled with system buttons or touch input.
- If folder cover image is present, it will be loaded as background in the file browser.
Bug fixes/improvements since 5.00:
- Fix PNG cover loading
- Fixed an issue where playback would not proceed to next track on some codecs when in sleep mode or in the background.
- Fixed occasional issues on app exit.
- Fixed Turkish language support.
- Fixed an issue where album cover would be unloaded when using player in “repeat one” mode.
