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.

Songs not showing up

Okay. I've tried on root box and now axis m. Any songs I add after installing WILL NOT show up. I have tried restarting, forcing a media scan with an app "rescan media" nothing works. Please help me before I lose my mind..

Check for any folders labeled " .no media ". That will prevent media scanner from seeing that folder.

Check settings on your media player. Sometimes it's not looking in what it thinks is the right place. For example, you know your music is on your external sd. But if your music player is looking for in /storage/sdcard1 for music and its actually labeled as /storage/extSdCard, it won't see it.

How do I do that on the stock Samsung music player..I don't see it

On the stock player,I have no idea. Try using one of the free players on the market. Maybe it's Rom related, or it could be the stock player.

Play Music widget problem

So I use Google Play music for my songs with n play, select, and skip tracks with the widget. It used to work fine but now it often pauses the song when I press the menu square on the widget, shows a loading circle, and then takes me to the menu. This is hurting my workout. Is this firmware issues, a bad update, or BC I pulled my SD card without unmounting it recently (that's where ALL my songs are)?

I personally don't thinks its any issue with your SD card.. Best way to find out if it is.. Is by playing it on the stock music player or another music.. And it sounds like it might be an app issue
Its with the most recent update of Google Play Music.

I'd personally jjust switch to something else, I use now playing music player has a good shuffle options for playlist and music it just seems know how to pick the favorite or genres correctly compared to poweramp
yea, turns out its just the update, as I switched back to the factory widget and it works perfectly.

Music player crashes when opening playlists

Im on stock rooted 4.3 and my stock music player keeps crashing everytime I try to go the playlists section. I never had this problem with 4.1.2
I tried the usual fixes (clear app data and cache, force stop, reboot) but to no avail.
One thing I noticed was that when I go to my files and open the folder called playlists its empty. Could this be causing a problem ?

Might be your sd card...I had a similar problem with my gallery. ...every time I tried to view images that were saved to sd the gallery would force close.

Thanks for your response but im pretty sure the problem isnt the sd card as all my songs are on there and I can play them all just fine I just can't seem to access any playlists.

I've got the same issue.
I can play all my songs, but when I click on the playlist icon it crashes.
If I go to the songlist, I can select a song and go to add to playlist, then select a playlist and it will add it. I can then play the playlist whjile I am there. But if I go straight to playlists it crashes before it lets me select a playlist.
I have tried wiping data and cache.
I have also tried unmounting the SD card and running the player with just a few songs on the internal memory. Same issue - I select playlists and it crashes. It worked fine for 6 months before this proiblem started. Very frustrating.
