Hi, my music player seems to have gone wierd
It will play half a song, then stop at a certain point everytime and say 'cannot play track unsupported file'
I dont understand how it can play half, but not the rest
Any help?
Fully stock r800i .49
Thanks
Maybe it's the music files, try deleting them and then putting them on your phone again.
Tried downloading again but doesnt work
It plays the exact same song on youtube but when i download it it can only play half :S
Hey All:
I'm having an issue with Google Now's "Listen To" command (likewise "Play" or "Play Music"). These commands only direct Now to do a search. I've made sure that Play Music is selected as a search source (as well as Winamp and Media Monkey), but the phone insists on web searches. Any tips on how to force it to behave the way it's supposed to (i.e. search my phone and play the requested song or artist)?
I'm in Canada (though with a valid Play Music account with ~2,000 songs uploaded); I don't know if that's part of the problem.
I've tried clearing the data for Google Search as well. Running the latest Google Search and 4.3.
Thanks for any help!

Mmmm, thats wierd. I don't think the amount of tracks on Play Music is a problem at all. I have a little bit under 2k songs in there as well and It prompts me with the option to select my music player (in this case spotify). The web search comes after the song hit. I can't say its 4.3 either, though I'm still rocking 4.2.2
Here is my Google Search Version: 2.6.7.721924.arm
Try uninstalling and reinstalling Google Search maybe that will do the trick. As a last resort I could pull my apk for you to download?

Thanks for looking. I'm on the same version (2.6.7.721924) and have uninstalled the updates/reinstalled. Still nothing. It's a weird issue, to be sure. From my research it looks like it's an intermittent issue that comes and goes to most people. I'd welcome any other advice.

I have the same issue. Some songs instantly played when named and others will bring me to the search engine. I thought it might be where the song resides that was the issue but I'm not 100% sure. Sometimes i can get it to work from songs on internal memory. And sometimes from my micro SD card, but not always. I thought it might have to do with whether the music was on Play Music...."all music", or "on device". But i cannot get it to work every time.
Edit: even stranger. ..i just tired both "play" and "listen to" commands for the song "Wish you were here". The song opens up with the image of the Pink Floyd album cover, and then the music plays. But it's not Pink Floyd. It's the Grateful Dead version. I then see album covers for those two versions and one for Incubus' version. If i use the "listen to" or "play" command and say, "Listen to Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd", it still plays the Dead's version. I have all three versions in my library.
If i use the"play" command and then name an artist, nothing happens. If i instead insert the word "Google" before the word "play", then it will play an artist. Wonkey!!!
Hi, I noticed that Listen and Play command does not launch the default music player any more. The list of apps in the Google Now Settings does not show any music player either. I don't have access to Play music in my region.
Anyone have the same experience? Can this be fixed at our end?
I tried searching for this under music but didnt see anything.
Has anyone else noticed when you search for your music in the stock app, that it will not play it when you select it?
You can search any song, select it to play, it will play for a maximum of two seconds before the players cuts it, and instead plays the song that is listed on the top of your library. Each time. Is my experience. Anyone else? Is there a fix?
Hi All,
Anyone knows how to change default music player on KK Android? Alternatively how to make Android Wear open PowerAmp instead of Google Play Music when I say Open Music?
When I click open music player on phone using android wear it opens default music player Google Play. When I freeze that it opens YouTube, when I freeze that Tunein Radio and when I freeze that finally PowerAmp.
However I want to have Youtube and Tunein installed and working. Any suggestions?
Tried the clear defaults but all above mentioned apps have that option greyed out, tired assigning PowerAmp to MP3 files and I can and it now opens when I double click but Wear still opens google one.
Anything else?
Well, I can tell you how to change Google Now to open PowerAmp. Use your phone's voice search to play a title of a song in your library (so, "Play [title]"). When it speaks "Playing [title]," and shows the "Playing" card, quickly press the three dots menu icon in the upper right corner of that card. You'll see a new card with "Play music with..." and a list of apps. Pick PowerAmp. From then on, it should use PowerAmp whenever you ask it to play a title. Now, why did I tell you to play a title, and not simply "Play Music?" It seems that "Play Music" is hardwired to use Google Play Music to launch "I'm feeling lucky radio." You cannot change it. If you hit the three dots after that command, Google Play Music is all you'll see.
Now, for the watch. It's going to be a LOT more finicky. Asking for a song or album title, or even an artist SHOULD use the same app set in Google Now, but sometimes it will use Google Play Music anyway. If you don't have "All Access," it will sometimes fail, with some error about not being able to create a playlist (or something like that... I can't remember exactly). Sometimes, it will simply open a Google Search for no apparent reason.
The bottom line is: Opening music from the watch will only work a small percentage of the time, and that success rate will be cut even further if you're not using Google Play Music. Unfortunately, I doubt that Google is inclined to fix, or even improve, this anytime soon.
Having said that... there might be a workaround:
You need: Tasker (paid) and Tasker App Factory (free)
Create a task in tasker that does what you want it to do. Then give it an icon and use "Export to Application" to create an APK of it, name it what you want the voice command to be. Install the APK to your phone.
When you want to run the task, say "ok google, launch [app name]" into your watch.
It's possible to search, by voice control, an album...not a song? For example "Play [Album]" and then playing start from first track of the album
Is it possible with google now and poweramp?
is there any other app to play songs stored in watch directly like google play music?
Ok, so i looked in the forums and found no one had this... but I launch the google play music app, pick ANY radio station, start a tune, it will play just fine.
Now, once the song is over, OR if I decide to skip a song, the app will start playing the next track as expected however, after 4 ~ 7 seconds of playback, the song skips, and goes to the next song again. I have seen the phone do this, while unlocked, I was just looking at it, nothing touching it and the skip occurs.
Uninstalled the app, the cache, all the play store updates/cache/data as well - same thing.
spotify, radiotunes, etc -- all work fine
poweramp for local content -= same thing, no issues.
google play support has so far been unable to help me.
anyone else experience this?
