5. Frequently Asked Questions

1. When using the "keep running in the background" function, you need to pay attention to the following points:

1) After the keep-alive function is turned on, the application will remain running in the background and consume system resources (such as CPU usage). If you do not need this function, you can turn it off in the settings center.

2) The more applications/games running simultaneously in a single MuMuPlayer, the higher the required performance settings. You can adjust the MuMuPlayer performance settings as appropriate according to the computer performance.

3) When the keep-alive function is turned on, the floating window function of some applications will be disabled. If you need to use the application floating window function, please turn off this function.

4) When the keep-alive function is turned on, the current version of scripts that use the screenshot function (such as ALAS, key wizard and other auxiliary software) will be invalid, you need to turn off this function to run the scripts normally.

2. When using the split-screen function, you need to pay attention to the following points:

1) Some functions of some applications cannot run in the "keep-alive" state, so split screen cannot be performed;

2) Scripts that use the screenshot function (such as ALAS, BBCChannel, key wizard and other auxiliary software) will be invalid in the "keep alive" and "split screen" states, you need to turn off this function to run the scripts normally;

3) The synchronizer function only supports use when Multi-instances are opened, and does not support use in the interface dragged out by the split-screen function;

4) The operation recording function is only supported in the main window of the MuMuPlayer, not in the split-screen window;

If you need to run operation recording on an app, please make sure that the app is taken back to the main window of the MuMuPlayer first;

If you need to run the operation recording on multiple apps, please use Multi Opener to open multiple emulators and then run the operation recording;

Note: Operation recording has the following known issues with the current split-screen function:

*When the operation recording is executed, the split screen can only be operated by keystrokes and mice, and it is not possible to input text normally, this problem will be fixed in the subsequent version;

*The operation recording does not support the operation containing text input for the time being, and it will conflict with the split screen operation, this problem will be fixed in the subsequent version.

5) The exclusive version of MuMuPlayer does not support the split screen function currently. For example, the "Arknights" exclusive MuMuPlayer does not support split screen, please use the MuMuPlayer official website version;

6) Functions such as separate volume adjustment, split-screen window arrangement, and individual key editing are still under continuous iteration, please wait patiently.
