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

Greetings. Im hoping someone might be able to help me with a very annoying problem im having.
I have somewhere around 2000 music tracks, all of which are uploaded to Google Music. Ive had GMusic since they first announced the beta and i love the fact that my entire library is everywhere I go. I also love that i can download the tracks directly on my phone, from my phone.
However using the app to play music is horrible. In the past i used poweramp, which is a wonderful player. My main problem with Google Music is it audibly cuts the power from the headphone jack in between tracks, so when i have it hooked up to my car stereo i hear a pop when the track changes... which annoys me to utter hell. On top of that it behaves weirdly some times, for example i had it set to shuffle all the other day, and it would stop on every song, and i would have to hit play manually to go to the next song.
What i would like to do is go back to using PowerAmp, but be able to manage my music as easily as i do with GMusic. Problem is that, PowerAmp doesnt see the music i download from the GMusic app and the one time it did, all the meta-data wasnt there. So all poweramp said was "Unknown track 1".
The other side of the problem is managing it on my computer. Since i bought music from Itunes and Google Music, keeping everything organized has become a nightmare(i have a number of compilations, and when you download the music from google music, it organizes it by artist not by the album). Which is why i dont want to have to manually move files to my phone. Ive tried WinAmp and Double Twist, and both have their annoyances. I was wondering what other people do, maybe someone can make my life easier.
subsonic, streams from your PC, no need to upload it to the cloud and it the UI is not bad either. it can also cache your streams for offline play
Since the last update, google music player will just stop playing. i will be in the middle of an album (local) and it just will stop playing. It wont change songs or albums. It just goes dead until it decides to work again...any1 else having this issue?
I have seen this and I believe I have read other reports of it as well. It started after the last update. I have rolled back to the previous version.

I'm having the same issue. Thought it was just a conflict with the custom Rom I'm using. But I hear people are having the same issues on stock Jellybean too. So it has to just be the app.
They really need to fix this, I'm having the same issue. Music just stops out of the blue and doesn't want to start back.
same issue here.. I've been using Pandora until the next update.. I may just roll mine back if they take to long to get this issue fixed..
Same issue!

Google Music stops after three songs
I'm using Google Music for streaming. It stops after three songs and won't work again until I reboot. I'm using the Odex Blue Rom, latest version 1.7. I deleted the application from the system using Root Explorer and then downloaded it as an app. It still stops. I agree it must be the application as Pandora will play and not stop. It's a real pain because now I have to move my songs down to the S3 and find another player. So much for the cloud!
****SOLUTION****
DOWNLOADED old Google Play Music and it works. Deleted the version I have on my S3 (the latest version from the Google Play store). Googled "Google Music Player apk" and found a 4.1 version. Downloaded the 4.1 apk and installed. It worked. Played for over one hour with no stops from the Google cloud. Then I went back to Google Play Store and said download the latest version. But all I wanted to do is check the box that says don't automatically update and then I closed the install. I don't know how to get it not to automatically update any other way.
I've been having this issue also, sort of. I lose sound when playing music from rocket player or music player, song time counter keeps moving but no sound. Just out of curiosity are you guys having problems with other players or just Google streaming? I had this issue even before 4.1.2.
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?
The problem:
My M8 is having difficulty playing music with sound. When I try to play music on the phone, the song will play. However, there will be no sound coming out from the speakers.
What I tried already:
I tried using a different music player. I downloaded Shuttle+ and tried to play, but I keep getting the same issue. Sometimes, when I reboot the phone, the stock music app works properly, but after the currently playing song is done, it would again play but not produce sound. If I go to the Shuttle app and play a song while the song plays with no sound on the stock music app, the Shuttle app works fine. But then after the song is done on Shuttle, I have to switch to the stock music app for sound to come out properly.
I remember how Google limited SD card functionality (my music was on my sd card). So I transferred the songs onto the phone storage, but I still have the issue. Then I figured that the issue might be my mp3 files. I deleted them all to try to isolate the problem. I tried playing song from the Google Play Music app and it appears to be working fine. This morning, the google play music also exhibiting the same problem. So even Spotify is having the problem. The music will load and the slider will move to indicate the song is playing, but again no sound. I tried deleting the data of all the music apps I have and they still do not work properly.
I have xposed modules installed so I disabled all of them and restarted the phone, but the problem persists.
Also, the boomsound speakers are functioning properly. Youtube videos and regular video files play with sound. I only appear to be having problems with music.
Phone modification:
This is probably really important to figuring out what the issue is. My phone is rooted and S-off. I have xposed installed with the following modules: forced immersive mode, greenify, keepchat, nfciconremover, snapshare, unicon, youtube adaway.
Other than that, the phone is stock.
Any help is appreciated! Thanks!
Solution
I performed a factory reset and started all over to isolate what modification caused this music bug.
Turns out, it was flashing the Tethering mod located here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2708548
If you are currently experiencing this problem, go back to pure stock OR simply flash this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2731893
Now, if you still want tethering, install this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2715671.
I can confirm that installing that will give you tethering and not break music functionality!

I no longer have the M8, but I had the exact same issue. I also thought that it had something to do with storing my music to the SD Card via Google Play Music.
I would back up, flash a Rom and see if that fixes it. I'm guessing it will work fine and it's just something happened from xposed.

I've had that issue before. Go into the app settings clear cache and clear data and try again.

Do you have any music thats saved on your phone? Try playing from there and see what happens. Also, make sure that you're logged in with your google account on Google Play Music.
