Apollo on nightlies build

Ok I have noticed that with apollo I can't find like half the music on my phone. I hooked it up to the computer to double check if its still on my SD card and it is. When I search for it in apollo I can't find it. Hate to say it but I like the ol music player with gingerbread better. Easier to create playlists etc. Anyone else having this issue?

Music player can't find songs

Hi! Do you guys see this?
I upgraded the ROM to Wanamlite V2.0. I was moving my mp3 files around to my external SD.
But, when i run the music player, i can't find any of the songs. I've tried moving to sdcard/Music but the player doesn't see it...
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

[Solution][CM9 Music Player]

Hello XDA...just wanted to share about an annoyance of CM9 Apollo Player...mostly when mp3 files are being downloaded and moved to external sd cards...the Apollo Player gives error and doesn't play them...even after reboot...so i have got a simple solution for those who don't know how to deal with this....
Install "Rescan Media" from play store and run the app...it will automatically rescan media in a second without even notifying...now go to Apollo and run your downloaded music....it works!
Please hit thanks if this little tip helped you...!

Its not a problem with Apollo although it is a **** music player to begin with but with the media storage not being able to scan it yet or finished scanning and missed the file. Nonetheless if you use a music player like PowerAMP then you won't have that problem.

It would be better to download 20kb app of scanning media...who does scan your phone within 1 second....than having 2 music players...anyway

i hated apollo music player..

Stock music player app...

Does anyone have the problem where the music player pulls all audio files including ringtones and notification tones and displays them in the list? I find it frustrating that it does this. Does anyone know a way to get around this?

No just plays music from my music folder try putting all ur music in a music folder. Before u do that force close the player then erase data for it and the media storage then make ur folder.

Music not showing up on twiz player.

I have a question regarding the twiz music player. I'm on jellyb and somehow my stock music player or the Walkman can't "see" some of my music even thought they're in mp3 format. I've tried renaming the damn songs and they still don't pop up. I am able to play them using es explorer and having it play through stock app but it's just not popping up. Any ideas of how I could fix this?

If you just put on phone you might need to rescan media. There are apps in play store to force a rescan. Then I had a problem in the past where a app was creating a .nomedia file so the media scanner skipped that folder.

Almost like deja vu. Having the same issue in either the stock music player or Play Music. Just moved over to Note 2 from S3 and didn't have this happen on S3. Tried unmounting and mounting external SD card so as to force a rescan, no dice.
So i just rebooted the phone, went to Music Player and it's blank, says i have no music on phone. While contemplating what to do next (including downloading a re-scan media app from the market) i just let it alone and a minute later all my music started showing up and populating. I guess it took its sweet time to re-scan or get it's head right.

Only other couple things off the top of my head would be go to settings and application manager find the music player and try clearing data. My guess is that won't work since it's multiple players. Other thing I know some songs I downloaded from a mp3 app before didn't show until I updated the id3 tag for some reason. The ones that didn't show had a bunch of garbage in the id3 mostly random symbols. Once they got corrected they started showing up for me. But that was when I had my epic touch. Hope it works for ya.
