Does anyone know of an Android Music player that will send Album art via Bluetooth Audio to my Alpine 920 car stereo? I seem to be able to get meta data with album title and artist name, but no album art. The Pandora Radio app does this so I know it is possible.
Thanks

Hey guys,
For some reason, when I try to play a podcast in DoggCatcher (generally mp3's) when I select "play in external player", some of my media playing apps never show up.
In the screenshots I've got showing Doggcatcher, ES File Manager and FX file manager, DoggCatcher never shows PowerAmp, or ES Media Player as optional media players. It never has. I've tried the basics of uninstalling the apps involved and still nothing. Other than this, I love the app.
Anyone got any ideas?
I have tried to transfer music to my phone via ssh / sshfs I copy the music to /data/media/Music and everything is there Mort Music can play it but it does not show up in the play music player no matter if I use sdrescan or turn my phone off and on. This is also the case for ringtones either in /data/media/Ringtones|Notifications or /data/media/media/audio/Ringtones|Notifications. However when I use airdroid the music show up fine.
I am thinking airdroid is loading the metadata in to something so Play Music know about the music similar to what I believe mtp does if you transfer via a cable (which currently sucks on linux)
I've tried mounting my Google music with GMusicFS, and yeah, that works, but I'm looking to use the actual Google Music app. Every other music app I have sends metadata to my car headunit, but Google music only seems to send the time info (track length, where you are in the track, etc.). No artist, no song name, nothing. I've been digging into this a bit and have found other phones that work with it, so I'm thinking it may be a LGOG thing? Any thoughts on this?
I think it's definitely a device implementation. I have a HTC One, and a Nexus 4. The HTC One is the only one that sends metadata over bluetooth to my car's stereo. That data does include the artist and the song name btw.
Is there anyone using the cloud service of play music that may help me in understanding a problem I am having?
I uploaded all my songs to the cloud.
I set the player on the GNex not to cache anything which is played via streaming, as i won't be streaming.
I will be creating playlists online and thendownload the playlists on the phone at need.
Only problem I have is with the LAST ADDED playlist under the AUTOMATIC PLAYLISTS.
What is this? And why by default the keep on device pin is selected and cannot be deselected? Does it mean it still stores on the device all the songs under this playlist? I do not want these songs on the device.
Thanks

Bump. I actually do want those song on my device, but am confused by it's behavior. Some songs recently added to my library show up saved on my device under this playlist, while others do not.
I'm linking my Note 2 to an FR-S 10 with a factory Pioneer HU. I'm using the music player that came with the AT&T Note 2. It connects, the phone works great, music plays. The problem is that when I connect to the music player by bluetooth, there is no option to scroll through the albums. It just presents a scrambled list of songs in what appears to be no particular order. Is there a setting I'm missing or is it the phone? If it matters, the folder structure on the phone is <Artist> <Albums>. The songs are labeled by order number and name within the Album folder.
So, for example, //sdcard/Music/Aerosmith/Rocks has within it
"01 - Back in the Saddle"
"02 - Last Child"
"03 - Rats in the Cellar"
and so forth.
Anybody have any ideas?
