I have problem with my music player, in the default music player before I could scroll through albums by sliding the thumbnails pictures, now whenever I play music it's just single album, with fast forward and rewind buttons. I was looking for any settings, couldnt find any.
I want it to be like this
please watch this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGTn86QuHzE
It had this feature don't know what happened.
Please help.
found it, just select "play all" from artist, albums, or all songs.
but it's not organized , unlike nokia music player.
sorry I'm new to android.
its bcoz you've played the song from the albums list....
goto the song list and slide to all songs and play a song from it...
then you can slide through songs...

Hi guys,
I really like the default music player because it shows you the album art on the lock screen. However, I can't find out how to enqueue a song or album to the now playing list. It always replaces all the songs currently playing and I don't want that.
I tried playing a playlist and then adding stuff to that playlist but that doesn't work either. Anyone got an idea how to do this or at least a music player replacement with the lock screen controls?
Thanks!
Oh, I forgot: On the Windows Mobile HTC Sense (Manila) Player this worked, so I'm thinking this feature must be accessible somehow.
Anyone?
You can hold down on a song and Add to Playlist, but you can't enqueue anything to add to what's currently playing.
To be frank, the HTC Music player is really poor.
So which player are you using? Does it have a lock screen?
I have the same problem on my HTC Magic since I updated it
I hate the stock Music player that comes with the EVO, I think its slow, and not easy to navigate around.
I tried Mix zing player, but it looks ugly, the graphics are made for a 480*320 screen and haven't been updated for the WVGA devices like the EVO.
So I downloaded the AOSP stock ANDROID Music player, the one on the Nexus one and the Droid.
The issue is, that when you are on the main screen where it says albums, artists, songs, and playlists.
And you are in the songs category when you scroll through the lists using the grey wheel on the right that helps navigate through letters, it is not accurate at all.
For example i will be at the top of my song list, I have 800 Songs BTW and I will scroll down a little using the grey bar and the bar will bring up W, then R and V to show the letter of the song names, but it doesn't even bring up the right songs, see for yourself in the video and please tell me why it is doing this or if their is a fix.
I know their are plenty of alternatives, but I really like this music app aside from this problem. I am thinking it has something to do with the FPS issue with the EVO and or some HTC Framework or app that is causing a problem.

anyone, Theres got to be a fix for this
It's probably listing the songs alphabetically by file name, and displaying the songs by ID3 Track Name field.
Download doubletwist, problem solved. Best music player for android devices by far.
Hi guys! I've read that many people want to have the one application that does two functions: Play music and display song lyric. The application MIUI Music does that kind of stuff and it also shows the lyrics for the song. What I wondered was if it was possible for the app not only to find and show the lyrics, but at the time of downloading the song, at the same time do the downloading of the lyrics, so that not only you can read it while your connected to the internet, but can save it in your phone. If any ideas on an existing app, please tell me. Thanks alot!
PowerAmp does that conveniently... just add the lyrics to a song via itunes or something similar before putting the song into your phone. A simple tap on the album cover while on poweramp will show/hide the lyrics
so i decided i wanted to change my homescreen, and wanted a music widget. had little luck finding one that supports the stock music player, so have recently installed poweramp, which seems like a great player, and has a nice widget.
the problems are that it tries to play all my mp4 videos and some small app sounds, which is annoying. is there a way to filter out the small files? as for the mp4s, ive tried to deselect the folder from my external sd\video folder, but every time i do that it either crashes the program or just reselects it. i think it sometimes crashes randomly also, but cannot be sure having only used it for a day.
also, ive downloaded a lot of album art, and works well within poweramp, but ive tried to go back to the original player and the old album art is displayed. is there any way to embed the album art back into the songs or whatever needs to be done?
sorry if these questions have been answered before, but ive had no luck searching or playing about in the settings myself.
might think of some more, but for now any help with the above would be great.
If you go to the settings, go to the folders/library section and click Music Folders it will come up with a little pop up type box called Folders Selection
it'll take a little while to load your whole folder list so dont worry, but when all your folders are shown, untick everything, and then find just the folders where your music files are stored and tick that. That way only files from those folders are played
And as for album art, there's no setting in poweramp for that as far as i know, and i dont know of any apps that do that, but there is one easy way to do it that should work perfectly, (it shows my album art on any player)
On your computer, download the Songbird player. Then set which folders are you library etc etc so all your songs come up in the player. Then get the album art files you've downloaded on your comp, and you can edit the album art of each song or whole albums.
To change the album art, click on the song or highlight all the songs in an album (to do this, click the first song on the album, hold the shift key, then click the last song, and all the songs in between will be highlighted too); and right click the selection.
Click view metadata
Where the artwork is displayed, click the replace button
In the box that pops up, navigate to the folder where your album art is stored, click the correct album art and click open, then close the metadata box by clicking the okay button at the bottom and the album art should be changed.
It is a bit of a long process if you have a lot of albums, but at least it doesn't mess up like those automated album art changers or tag editors you can download...
Hope this helps
nice one
although like i said ive tried that folder selection thing. ive unticked the videos one, and it just crashes, or fails to work.
Hmm... i've no idea why that happens.
Go the poweramp page on google play or go to poweramp's own site and email them. That seems to be an issue with the app itself
Hi,
I just started using Google Play Music after giving up on Walkman as it does not allow for organizing my collection by genre (which would mean years of genre organization wasted...).
Anyway, as this is also my first Android phone, I would really appreciate if someone could help me with a couple of questions:
1) "Like" in lock screen: I would like to have a shortcut to the "like" button on the lock screen, as I want to teach Google my music taste so it can make better mixes for me... however I don't want to unlock the phone, open Play Music, swipe up for the "Now Playing" screen and then finally hit "Like" to do it...
2) Good album artwork support: I realized that Play Music just selected a random album artwork to display with all of a band's songs, regardless if they are of that album or not... is this a bug or what? The artwork itself is also not very high quality... perhaps it was already on my collection folder (which I copied to my SD card)?
3) How to see the album of a given song? When a song is playing, since the artwork does not match the actual album of the song (verified by a few songs and albums which I know the artwork well), I don't know how to check its album! It doesn't show neither in the lock screen or in the "now playing" Play Music screen... I actually need to hit the "Go to album" in the options menu in the now playing screen just to see its name...
4) Provided that #2 can be solved: is there a way to have the lockscreen show the artwork in full screen? Just to keep it less boring...
Many thanks!
Leo.
