Hi...
I have 3 other players witch shows the album art perfectly as it should but as soon as i want to use my tf3d it only show the same album art for all the songs
Has anyone else had this problem and how do i solve it? I have the art inbeded in the mp3 files so should not be a problem. For example my Coreplayer 1.3 shows it correctly.
Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks in advance
I had the same problem. I just put songs with the same album arts in same folders. Basically Touch Flo 3d gets confused when all of the songs with different album arts are in a same folder. Hope it helps.
Basically you need one folder for each Album/song.
I have Artist-Album and songs inside the album.
best way is Artist/Album/songs then put your albulm thumbnail as hTC_AM_AlbumArt.jpg itll do it but it seems to get confused easily and put wrong album covers especially if you have 2 albums same name like "unknown Album". you can also make a copy of the album cover named folder.jpg for media player. its tedious work but it let you control it.
the best way is to put the album cover in the mp3
you can use mp3tag http://www.mp3tag.de/en/
Also to note with the Artist/album directories, be careful with album names.
say u have /Michael Jackson/Greatest Hits/ and an album Suicidal tendancies/Greatest Hits/ it often confuses them and you'll end up with your Michael Jackson greatest hits album cover on your suicidal tendancies songs even with album art embedded and in the directory. so you have to name every album name unique.
I had a same problem and solution is: all album art named "folder" a everything work fine

Actually best way is to sync ur music with windows media player. Lets say u put an album in library of windows media player. Find and album art and paste it and then u sync and voila!! now u have album art in tf3d player (atleast i do )
Someone mentioned in other thread, about the app MediaMonkey, it's free. With it u can integrate the album art in the song. I use it and so far there're no problems with the album art. It has a lot of options, really great app. http://www.mediamonkey.com/download/
i agree with the man
you should sync from wmp it will add to your htc with the album art
after syncing with WMP11 it shows no music found on htc music manager
while wmp on device displays correctly
Tip on resolve the TouchFlo Album Art
Create Folder for each of the Artist, "album art" image change to folder.jpg and place in the Artist Folder along with "folder.jpg".
Example:
Folder Named as "Jocie"
folder.jpg = Image of Jocie
All Jocie's songs placed in this folder
The following step is important . . .
Goto > Device\Application Data\HTC\AudioManager_Eng
Rename > AudioManager_Eng to AudioManager_Eng000
Do a "Soft Reset"
Done.
Following are Optional after you had soft reset . .
You can go back to > Device\Application Data\HTC\AudioManager_Eng
Delete > AudioManager_Eng000

Maybe i am a noob in the blackstone use, so if you know a metod to see the titles of the video before open it, can i please know what is it?
The problem is that the standard program for open video, the htc album, show the miniature of all the video but not the titles, and i have various video with the same miniatures.
The question is: do you know a video player or a metod for open a list of video files with miniatures and titles of the mp4 videos?
Thanks for answers

coreplayer can't reproduce mp4 video well because it don't use hardware acceleration (or i miss some news?)
For gjpax:
I mean exactly like the list of albums in music player.
With the htc album i have only the video thumbnails without the titles, so i can't know what video i will play when i tap if i have more videos with the same thumbnail.
Sorry for my poor english

I know that coreplayer can open mp4 but i remember that there was a lag in video reproduction because of the absence of hardware acceleration, but maybe i'm talking about a late version of coreplayer, and this is the same thing that happen with other video players apart from the htc album and wmp.

ok thanks for the info
I finally found the program that do exactly what i want.
It is videolauncher of MrHTC that you can found in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=520604
It suffer of some bugs so i will wait for a functional release.
Is it possible to be able to use custmized ring tones at the same time that they wont appear on the stock music player.. post a solution that you guys have tried..
Place a file called .nomedia inside the folder you dont want to be seen by the media player.
You can put a .nomedia "blank file" in the \ringtone folder, so it won´t get caught by the mediascan.
Checkout this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=762058
I've tried that solution it also prevents my ringtones getting seen by my application that handles the ring tone selection ( zedge ) could you guys recommend something else to set my ringtones that work with .nomedia ?
This is a problem is with Samsung Music app. Other androids i own did not have this problem by right any ringtones in a folder called ringtones would not be pick up by the music app. The same goes for folder named alarms and notification. The music app would ignore it and android would detect the files and put it in the ringtone menu when picking a ringtone.
With samsung music app this is broken.
So whats the best music replacement app that sound equal or better than the stock music player ?

I had the same behaviour like SGS on my previous HTC Desire.
If you have root permissions, you can put your ringtones and notifications etc in the following location:
system\media\audio\ringtones
system\media\audio\notifications
system\media\audio\alarms
Then reboot and job done, your Samsung media player will nolonger register the files...

Do I need a 3rd party application for me to asign these ringtones or do they already appear on the list of ringtones out right ?
Simple answer = You need Root access and an app such as root explorer, it will let you copy your music files to the system folder as stated...
I did as above and copied in my .mp3 files that I wanted, then simply rebooted and they work perfectly and nolonger show in Music players lists... but when I go to notifications they appear and can be selected like any other sound in the list
Thanks, my phone is already rooted. Ill just grab root explorer and try this.

It's also exactly the same behaviour on the HTC Hero.
Does anyone know how to possibly take off that really ugly album art on the default music player; the random images that are assigned if you don't have album art. Love the stock music player but the album art really annoys the heck out of me.
I would like to know as well!
Not really relevant to your question but i can totally recommend getting Power Amp from the market the best music player for Android, i don't think ive ever actually used the stock music player.

Indeed. If you have the images you'd prefer, shoot them to me. I'll set you up. I found them in the 'SystemUI.apk' file and gree that they are horrid at best.

I know this is asking a lot, but it would be really cool if you could create a thread detailing how to make these changes. A lot of users, myself included would be really interested in learning how to do this.
Ill step up here. Its really quite easy and once you can do this you can go on to do other theme changes easily.
I agree the album art is horrendous.
The images are in (for me) : musicplayer.apk
from : music_player_thumb_01 to music_player_thumb_08
size : 480 x 480
What you want to do is get hold of your MusicPlayer.apk From system/app
Ive found the easiest way to get it onto my pc is just locate it with a filemanager,
hold my finger on it then click send to. I then either send it to my pc via bluetooth or send it to my dropbox. You can also copy and paste it to your SD/phone storage and the use the wire to put it on your pc but wireless is easy/lazier just how i like it.
Once you have the apk on your pc open it up with 7zip and go to :
res/drawable-hdpi
(the location of most of the images).
Now just inject your files into this folder overwriting the other ones.
If you want just extract the drawable-hdpi folder so you can take a look at the images and see what you want to edit.
Next you either put it in a flashable zip or use root explorer or some filemanager to copy it over manually.
I can provide a flashable zip if you need.
Im gonna knock some galaxy images together in that size and replace the old ones, ill share them here when im done.
Hope this helps.
Heres how it looks and the files but there are still some frugly thumbnails to take care of :

I don't know if you guys know how/why this happens, but please if you do please tell me.
This is the case, i love an artist and i want to listen to his/her songs, so i pin the name of the artist to the start screen. Zune has no data of this artist (i believe)
But then all it came is the blank live title with the name like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
But in Music Hub, the same title is available and with the picture on it. I can't find the way to have them out on the screen,
But when i pin some Zune-Recognized Artist like Linkin park out, they will have the Title with the Image.
So i want to ask if we have any 3rd XAP or any Application are capable to do this? And is this how Zune work or i have a faulty ROM?
You don't have a faulty ROM. My Lumia 800 generates double wide live tiles for Linkin Park as well. As far as I know only OEMs can create Applications with double wide tiles.
If you pin an artist to your home/start screen it will generate a double wide with the artist name and picture only if Zune recognizes the artist, I.E. you can find that same artist in the Marketplace. If you add your own collection, even with album art and stuff, to your Windows Phone it won't add the background because of it not being in the Zune catalog.... I Think! Can anyone back me up on this?

maybe! but can you see the same wide title with the tag "hatsune miku" and the picture in the Music Hub?
Why not the start screen then

Don't tiles in the music hub show the album art? Tiles on your homescreen definitely do not. They show artist art. So the exact same picture that is shown in the background of your music hub. Now if Zune can't find artist art, not only your hub background will be empty, but so will the tile on your homescreen.
If you just pin the specific album then you can get a single tile with the picture on it but i dont think theres anyway round it unless zune has the pic on their system

Within Zune, what you're seeing is album art. The live tiles, just like the Zune tile, display artist info that the phone has downloaded... or... NOT album art.
I know... I'd like random album art or something to show. Zune has way too few artists in their database.
Try MPAtool http://forums.wpcentral.com/applications-spotlight/186557.htm
add a picture for the artist, and try again, worked for me--
also you see the artist picture on the lock screen

Hi all:
I'm thinking of buying this Joying Android player for my car:
https://www.carjoying.com/2-din-car...-system-support-camera-dvr-for-universal.html
But I have a question about the music app, used to play music from the USB or SD card.. I hope someone can help me...
Normally in my USB/SD card, I organize my mp3's in folders, by album names. So for this android music player that comes with most android players, will the app display my songs in folders/files, or will it just search through all the files, and display them in a single-hierarchy, chronological list?
This is important to me, as I want to be able to quickly change my songs by moving to another folder when I need it...
Thanks in advance!
I don't own exactly this one, but I guess all Chinese are similar. So on the question: on mine when you slide right the music app screen on the left side is something like files explorer and you can choose what folder you want to play or press the very top option to play everything. So if your card folder structure is simple you will be able to play what folder you want in a matter of couple of clicks. But if you have complicated folders structure like folder in a folder in a folder, then will be a bit hassle. I hope that helps
Ps: you can always download any music app from gogle play that suits you

I think you should consider PowerAmp, if you set correctly in setting menu, you can slide left-right for prev/next track, slide up-down for prev/next folder, also you can sort (for each folder) by album, artist or even file-name. I'm really happy with these features.
I guess I can roughly picture it in my mind... but any pictures would be extremely helpful!
I stumbled upon BlackPlayer Music Player and its awesome! Does what you're asking and more. I plugged in an old usb stick with various folders of artists into my Joying headunit and when I opened the app for the first time it was so easy to tune it. Sorts by artist, albums, songs, playlists, etc. Check it out in the app store. One pic from google:

sounds good! I'll try out the blackplayer and poweramp when my unit arrives. thanks!
I cam here to ask the same thing, I like to organise my music by Artist first then Album. The native player only wants to list the albums! I can't find a "Go up one Level" button anywhere.
On this note is it possible to remap the physical button on the head unit?
