Lots of Crashes with Music Players: Nitrogen, Pocket Player, etc. - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

Touch Pro 2/Tilt 2 with AT&T: I get a LOT of crashes, followed by the "white page of death" (the offer to send the error report to Microsoft). This happens in a variety of music players except of course Windows Media Player. Most of the time, it seems to happen when I'm browsing songs by directory; I store my mp3 media on a storage card.
Any thoughts or anyone have similar issues? I suspect it's because some things just aren't ready for WM 6.5 but wanted to poll the experts on here.
I have the stock AT&T rom minus the crap (CrapScraper), and some registry tweaks from this site for network speed enhancement and a couple minor things.

I've had no such trouble, but just for giggles, see if you have the same poblems playing files from the internal memory. I have a car stereo that can play files from USB media, and it would disconnect and crash back to the main menu when it came across problems with the SD filesystem.

I also have the same problem here.
All the players crash except for "Windows Media Player".
I still have the stock rom and i've tryed with a SD-Card of 4GB and also with one of 16GB.
I've get the most stable results after i deleted all the "AlbumArt" files, but it didn't solve the problem.
P.S.: i've also tryed formating the storage card!

I use PocketMusic and have used it for years. Works perfect for me - and works the way I do: I have my music divided up by folder to segment my variety of musical tastes. If you use WinAmp, this will feel just about the same (in fact, it uses a ton of WinAmp skins in WinAmp mode).
It does all the usual playlists too, so you can just play using those.

Wierd Windows Media player problem

Runnin new windows media built in wm6 and whenever i play a .mp3 or .avi or really any file in media play i get an error claiming 'Not enough storage is availble to complete this operation'
So i check on storage and all is well more than enough i believe. i even use Oxis closeapps and hibernate to clear it up more and close all programs but still same error.
The files work fine in Audio Manager
any guesses or fixes?
Thanks

Music Tab

hey guys
a total noob question . i got micro SD card for the TP2 and put the music in there using the device center ( using the sync function to put the music in the micro SD card). all the music files shows in the media player on the cell phone and runs too, but i can get anything on the Music Tab of th TouchFlow its saying No Music Found
am i missing something or doing something wrong :S
Did You perform a soft reset?
My experience of loading up 3 gig's worth of music onto the microSD card in my Kaiser (I use the stock WMplayer btw) was that NOTHING showed up in media player until I had manually updated the players library. Once that had been done, all songs could then be selected or indeed played with the player or using MSVC for 'ooohs' from friends. I would guess theres a similar library/scanning function in the HTC supplied media player if you use that, but dont have a clue where!
hope this helps

i'm having the same problem. only 3 albums out of 50 or so appear in the tf3d tab even though all are in the windows media app
hmm, i think i mightve figured it out. the tab only shows whats "currently playing," ie the current playlist. all of my songs show up when i touch "library." i think i'll be trying out some other media players, this is kind of cumbersome

Streaming radio on my tilt 2?

So my fuze bricked on me several months back and I bought a tilt 2. Been using it mostly for audio books at work, but recently wanted to switch back to listening to some streaming radio stations online, namely di.fm. Which I did just fine on my fuze, it saved an .asx file and I was able to open that straight into windows media player.
My tilt 2 won't recognize .asx files and won't stream for the life of it, anyone have any similar issues? I'm running stock rom with no touchflo.
Get TCPMP - it will play anything you throw at it
Get it from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5538008&postcount=694
In case you dont know how to use it, just copy any .cab file to the device or storage card, go to the location with file explorer and click on it. It will install.
Follow the instructions on that thread regarding settings, and also, make sure you go into the 'file types' settings and make it default for .asx, .avi, .aac, etc.
I would not let it play .m4v though, as the built-in player by HTC does a better job of playing those than TCPMP does, due to direct hardware support. It will play full-sized xvid movies commonly found in torrents (the ones made to fit on a standard cd, about 700mb) without messing with them pretty well - not perfect, but OK.
Also, if you're into it, check my radio station:

you will see the link..
Cheers!
Fair enough, had forgotten about that prog for a while, hadn't had need to use it since I had my blackjack 2. Thanks!

[Q] Media scanning

I previously owned a Motorola Atrix with all the bells and whistles. I had a ton of music on the SD card synced and converted by windows media player to the rate I wanted. I copied all these files onto my sd card for my new LG Nitro and the media scan hangs.
I did a search and found an app that solved some peoples issue... Rescan Media Root...
This stopped the media scan but none of the apps that use the sd card would work. My media player didnt find music, my gallery wouldnt load, my camera wouldnt take pictures....
I have noticed some MP3 files play and media scan works fine but some others dont....
Has anyone resolved this?
Thanks!!!!

Gt3 - issues with music transfer

Hello all, i have tried today my brand new Gt3. It looks really good but I have issues copying mp3 files to it. For some reason the transfer always hangs after I copied over 10-15 songs. When it hangs the transfer stops at 0% and restating the app and or watch does not allow to continue. The mp3 files (I tried different ones) play well on various other devices. Any suggestions? (I have over 1.5gb free memory on the watch)
Update: I think I found it. It seems that the GT3 does not like songs with a dash in the name. The funny part is that it actually downloads it to watch (and plays it) - but any other song AFTER is not copied. After deleting the song with the dash in the name all is good...
