Album art from Power Amp via Media Utilities - Zooper Widget General

Hello everyone!
I am trying to use the current playing track album art in a Zooper widget with the Media Utilities plug-in. I can only make it work with Spotify and BeyondPod, but the image (nor the artist or the track) won't show when using Power AMP. Could someone please give some hints on this?
Thanks in advance!

Can't enqueue a song in the Music Player without changing tracks.

Hi guys,
I really like the default music player because it shows you the album art on the lock screen. However, I can't find out how to enqueue a song or album to the now playing list. It always replaces all the songs currently playing and I don't want that.
I tried playing a playlist and then adding stuff to that playlist but that doesn't work either. Anyone got an idea how to do this or at least a music player replacement with the lock screen controls?
Thanks!
Oh, I forgot: On the Windows Mobile HTC Sense (Manila) Player this worked, so I'm thinking this feature must be accessible somehow.
Anyone?
You can hold down on a song and Add to Playlist, but you can't enqueue anything to add to what's currently playing.
To be frank, the HTC Music player is really poor.
So which player are you using? Does it have a lock screen?
I have the same problem on my HTC Magic since I updated it

Music feat. Lyrics

Hi guys! I've read that many people want to have the one application that does two functions: Play music and display song lyric. The application MIUI Music does that kind of stuff and it also shows the lyrics for the song. What I wondered was if it was possible for the app not only to find and show the lyrics, but at the time of downloading the song, at the same time do the downloading of the lyrics, so that not only you can read it while your connected to the internet, but can save it in your phone. If any ideas on an existing app, please tell me. Thanks alot!
PowerAmp does that conveniently... just add the lyrics to a song via itunes or something similar before putting the song into your phone. A simple tap on the album cover while on poweramp will show/hide the lyrics

[Q] Autohide Zooper widget and Media Utilities

I have been using a Media Utilities widget on my lockscreen - the reason being that when I'm not using Spotify, the widget is not displayed. When I start playing a song it shows, and after I stop it disappears after a short period of time. Is there any way to incorporate this function into a Zooper widget so that it will only show when music is playing? Thanks

[Q] Media Utilities stopped working with Zooper Widget

Hello,
I'm experiencing problems with Media Utilities integration to Zooper Widget.
First let me get the basics,
My Phone: Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini with android 4.2.2.
My Media Player: doubleTwist
So when I saw it was possible to make a media player with Zooper Widget and Media Utilities I decided to give it a try.
I took quite some time to design it, and at first it all worked, now however, without editing anything in the Zooper Widget it stopped working.
I really have no idea whats causing this, I already tried uninstalling and reinstalling Media Utilities and changing my media player, but still no luck.
Anyone else experiencing this problem or knows how to fix this?
Also for the ones who want to know (This is my MU and ZW setup)
- MU:
- Ticked off Zooper Widget
- Ticked off Attempt direct control and Send Song Progress (i dont use coverart)
- ZW:
- For play, prev and next I used Module Ontap --> shortcuts --> media utilities controls --> play/pause, previous and next
- For Artist and Track: #TMU_ARTIST# and #TMU_TRACK#
Does any1 know how i can fix this?
Tnx in advance =)
You have to tick on Zooper Widget on MU for it to work.

mtc-music album art

How can I get album art for my music collection in mtcmusic? In poweramp I simply need to hold down on the song and it'll download/display options for album art. I like poweramp but really enjoy the way mtcmusic "integrates" with the home screen (shuts down radio to switch to music and vice versa, but won't if your using power-amp instead of mtcmusic)
thanks

Tasker and a rooted HU can allow any music app to shut off the radio.

I really like Jack's Music Widget, lets you integrate just pure album art to a home screen.

Thank you very much for splending answer!
But my HU Joying (rooted MalayskROM) has same issue.
Do I need any customize after activated Xposed mtc?

I do not understand. Xposed is not used. The music widget may not work with mtcmusic.
I too would prefer to use the built in app if I could work our how to get the Album art to display. I have a 4GB stick full of various albums, they have all been ID3 tagged and have had album art applied through Windows Media player. You can check this by finding the file in its folder, when you click the track the album art should appear in the details pane on the right.
Plus I also dropped a JPEG of the album art into each album folder. Now when I play songs through the Native app some show album art and some don't, but I can't figure out the difference between the ones that do and ones that don't!

No!, I have no idea what's going on but I have noticed something else. EVERY album displays album art on the widget on the home screen.
To clarify, if I go into the music app and start playing an album that is not displaying album art. I hit the home button and it does display the art on the widget.
So now I'm even more confused!

@scatamonky, I use Mp3Tag to apply all my cover arts and my OEM player shows the covers always, give it a try make couple mp3's with cover art and see if it shows: http://www.mp3tag.de/en/
By jove Reptile I think you've cracked it. I downloaded the MP3 Tag editor and the albums that don't show album art in the player do not have anything showing up and the ones that do....do!
I was using Windows media Player and it was clearly telling me lies.
Thanks !!!
I am glad it helped show your problem :good:
Tested and Working! Using the MP3 Tag editor highlighted by Reptile I now have album art displaying for every album I have. Which is about 19GB worth so far.!!!!
For anyone else experiencing this issue, do not trust Windows Media Player to add your art. If I opened folders on my PC and clicked on a song it would show album art in the details pane on the right but still NOT show art in the car!
Using the MP3 Tag editor I was able to see that WMP only seems to associate art with a file as long as its on the same PC, as soon as you take that file away to another player the art is gone.
This was frying my noodle for a long time so I'm really happy to have it resolved at last!!!
