[Q] Music Player current Artist ID, Title ID and Playtime - HTC One X

Hello all,
I am using my default music player app in the car, and what i would like to work are the track info's which should appear in my bluetooth screen, now it only shows: " NO TITLE, NO ARTIST " with every song.
My friend has a Note II which does seem to work fine, it shows the title, artist and playtime on my screen.
Is there any music player that also sends all the things to my bluetooth radio ?
(i've already tried Winamp and PowerAMP but no succes.)
Thanks

This might not necessarily mean theres any errors, it just could be that your music has no ID3 tags.
This is what holds the information per track, such as Title and Artist as you say.

Hi, Did you send the song to each other through bluetooth? Or download from the EXACT same source?
If not, this could still be the case. ID3 tags can be applied or removed easily. One of the copies of your song may have the tags, the other may not.
But anyhoo, I tried

[Q] Unknown Artists?

Alright, so this has been bothering me first some time now.
When I go to my music app, I've noticed a bunch of my songs being labeled under "Unknown Artists".
Now, it never use to do this so I don't really understand how it happened.
I checked my SD card and everything in Root Explorer to see if there was any data corruption, but everything looks normal.
Has anyone had this problem before? What would you guys recommend? Thanks!
Another weird thing: I try to go to change the tags so I can put in the correct artist, but the Tag already shows the correct artist. The library just displays it as "Unknown Artists"
This has appeared on multiple music apps btw
The tags on the song aren't done correctly. Happens a lot on torrented music.
Download any of the countless album art/ artist finder apps and fix it.

Well, I don't know. The tags USED to work, and app finders are led to believe the tags are correct except in any Music App.
I'm having the same problems. I spent a few hours making sure all the tags were right using media monkey and still, my epic does not pick up the artists. picks up album art, albums, song names just fine. I think it may have something to do with iTunes. I used iTunes and converted all my music to m4a's (iTunes AAC format) and I read somewhere else that the android uses ID3v2 tags? Correct me if I'm wrong but thats the next step for me... converting everything to ID3v2 tags (if they aren't the same that is).
EDIT: Yes. I just converted one artist from .m4a (aac) to a .mp3 using iTunes and that solved it for me; that band now shows up under the Artists and not under Unknown. Hope this helps others.
If you need help I can post more.
More proof that ITunes is the Devil...?

Music Player with a2dp, id3 tag, and folder selection support

On the hunt for a music player if it exists, as far as I know only the stock music app and play music appear to show support for the id3 tags streaming via Bluetooth.
Now the only app I've really come across with good folder selection is still poweramp, but it appears poweramp doesn't play too well with a2dp as it takes a a few button fidgets to get the player to start playing when connected to Bluetooth.
So at the moment it's trading one feature for the other, id3 tags and somewhat normal music streaming with the stock players, but no folder support so I'm playing everything on my phone, ringtones, notification sounds and music.
Poweramp works well if I'm just using headphones as I can select just my music folder on my extsd. But the lack in id3 tags and initialization of music through a2dp are horrible, but not unbearable.

Going to try UberMusic today as I completely forgot about it until I saw it's awesome ui again.

Mort Player should be the best bet. The close second is winamp (it costs you to have folder function).
Thanks I'm going to look into that as I've been using PowerAmp and realized it has the selective folder function but still no bt id3 tags.

Is there any third party music app that supports playing your google play music files?
Poweramp shows tags over Bluetooth just fine on my Pioneer deck.

Yep, after the update they're supporting it. Found 'the' player. Nice ui and does everything I need. And comes with an eq.

I read this post and now i'm curious. I have a new Alpine car deck with bluetooth. My android 4.1 play's well with the stock app but with poweramp there is no id3 tags.
what Poweramp version do you use ?
Hello all, i was about to start a similar thread on another subforum...
I am looking for a player capable of almost everything you discussed here.
i have tried several but none has came close to what i need :
- Play mp4 (as video or audio -> vlc play it)
- Edit tags directly on the app (comments field in particular)
- display name of the artist - song name on the video during the playback (i am surprise how almost every player only show song name)
- SD Card
- If possible be able to continue to play even if close the book cover of my galaxy tab s
- good bluetooth integration
i can do without the last two but the others are really needed.
thanks for the heads up

[Q] Capture all internal audio before it hits speakers

I've been searching for awhile using many different key words, and don't know exactly how to word what I'm trying to say, but is there an app or any method of capturing the audio signal of anything being played directly by the device?
For example, I listen to a news podcast every day on TuneIn, and sometimes there's a snippet of a news story that I want to share with my friends. The built in TuneIn recorder outputs a proprietary format which is impossible to convert without a PC, and I don't want to spend the time doing that for a 2 minute clip. I'd just like to record it on the fly using my phone, so I can send it via MMS or email (preferably mp3).
Is there a way to record the audio directly from internal soundcard before it hits the speakers? The only way I can do it right now is to record the speaker output with the microphone via voice recorder, and obviously the quality is poor at best.
Thanks
Ok. This might seem really weird, and certainly not what the app is intended for. But..I think this might work for you. I use beyond pod as a player, whether that matters or not, idk. I also have an app called Ringdroid. This app allows you to take any audio file on your phone and edit it/slice it, and turn it into a ringtone. When I open ringdroid, all my podcast audio files are also there as options to slice and dice. I can slide the slider to where I want the cut to begin, and another slider to where I want it to end. Then hit save, and it's saved in my sd. Might work?

Dude, really? Did you read my post? I have TuneIn Pro and it outputs a proprietary format, not a format I can share unless my friend has TuneIn Pro also .

You can try File Converter from play store. That application converts audio files, video files, text files, and many more to the format that you want. Then you can share with whoever you want via email or text.

No, I'm just lying and made everything up to play a joke on XDA members. Just recorded 4 different clips on 4 different stations, and it places files corresponding only to the TuneIn application in the TuneIn Radio folder along with a .nomedia file. Adding a .mp3 to the files doesn't help, all the audio applications say "Cannot open file type."
Search Google and you'll find plenty of other discussions about this, so let me ask you, are you sure it records in mp3? Because your case is not the common one.
Oh, and don't litter in my thread and insult my intelligence with nothing useful to add to the topic. Now **** off.

Media utilities questions

Hi all
I have a couple of questions to help me finalise my music widget. Hope you knowledable bunch can help!?
I have it will set and then cover art shows as does the track make, artist and album. I also have a process bar for track progress and a text field for track time elapsed.
My question is how do I have these blank or say "---" if there is no music playing.
Currently it still shows the previously played track.
Any help would be great!
Thanks
Ok so I've figured that out now but I got one more question.
How do I have a certain bmp or something for cover art when nothing is playing.

You could try $#TMU_ISPLAYING#=1?#TMU_TRACK#:YOUR TEXT$
Second question is pretty much the same thing, use in advanced parameters instead $#TMU_ISPLAYING#=0?bitmap[/b ]$

Yeah I actually figured it out in the end.
I used the method you quoted above.
To reduce on thread spam I'll post my question to see if anyone can help:
I've spent all day trying to get Media Utilities to read off the track and artist name from Spotify on my G3 and I've finally gotten it to work. However, when I press the pause button on my widget (bound to Media Utilities play/pause), Google Play Music starts playing music. I tried disabling Play Music, which causes MU to crash.
I'm not actually using Themer, as it causes major lag (G3 isn't acutally supported yet), and somehow in Themer you are able to choose which media app to control. Any idea how to do this in Nova Launcher? Any help is appreciated.
