I have some werid playlists in tf3d that I cannot delete. When I click on the delete option, it shows no playlists to delete. I have tried cleaning my temp files with memmaid but they won't go away. Anyone have a solution?
You could try starting Windows Media Player - then choose 'update library' in the menu.
This fixes the issues that I have had similar to yours.
BTW - my phone speaks danish, so I am not sure that it says 'update library' in english - but something to that effect
I tried that but unfortunetly it did not work. The playlists are old playlists from my windows media player on my computer that I deleted. I have even emptied the recycling bin and synced but the files won't remove themselves.
I mean the Media Player on your phone - did you try that one?
yeah I tried updating the library on my media player on my phone too

Each time I open Windows Media Player after rebooting on my Tilt, I have to re-add all of the files by telling it to search for media. All of the media is on my 8gb microSD card in Storage card\My Documents\My Muisc, My videos, My movies. Is there a way to map it to these locations in the registry?
The HTC Audio Manager and TCPMP seem to remember where media files are.
The Tilt is Unlucked with a Dutty ROM.
Look in Windows Startup and see if there is any cleaners or anything.
In Windows\Startup I have:
Voice Command.lnk
QuickMenu.lnk
VCDaemon.lnk
A2DPStart.exe
IMStartup.exe
none seem to be cleaning programs.
I do have ClearTemp installed but noting about Windows Media in it's options.
Should Windows Media save playlists when the media is on a card?
Disregard, Problem Solved
Disregard, Problem Solved
Its just the way I was looking for the playlist.
It has all my media in it now.
Thanks
As the title says, really annoying... its been fine but now when ever I go to the music tab in Touchflow 3d, touchflo has to restart.. tried a soft reset and turning off/on, still does it.. anyone else had this problem and fixed it without a hard reset?
Had that too... try re-encoding the files.
I too have just had this problem.
I had deleted some songs from the phone and the TouchFLo player interface said tha the somgs were stil listed.
Also, I couldn't get any pictures of the album art to appear.
I used Explore via Activesync to delet all music albums, songs, album art from the 'Internal Storage' (HTC Touch Diamond) and then did a soft reset to see if that woud prompt the phone to refresh the TouchFLo madia player interface to search again and reset its list.
That's when the ******* thing started this crashing.
Windows Media player mobile is working fine.
I have many programs installed and do not wish to hard reset unelss it is absolutley necessary.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Can't really recode as I've deleted all the music files.
Cheers for now.
Only way I could get it to work more or less properly was to sync music via media player and set it to convert to wma as it syncs. I'm still looking for alternatives as syncing with wmp is a pain.
OK, I fixed it.
I had tried using WMP to sync, but it still didn't cure the problem.
For anyone who still has this problem, please try this....
1) Go into file manager on your phone
2) Navigate to My Device > Application Data > HTC > AudioManager_Eng
3) Go into the Playlists folder and delete all playlists.
4) Exit File Manager
Try the Music application again. It should now seach for music again.
The above fixed mine.
Good luck

I will bare this in mind for (I'm sure) when it happens again, sadly I got bored and did a hard reset before I checked replies here.
I got the same problem here. There are some mp3-files that seems to crash the Touch 3D Music app while it is scanning the Internal Storage. While it happens the whole Touch 3D is laggy. A very frustating bug I think. And syncing via WMP will only help when it (re)encodes the original MP3 to WMA. I think it's HTC who had to fix this bug.
On some files it helps to first remove all Mp3tags and than retagging them. So I think it must be something with the tags.
I have the same problem on my HTC Touch Pro.
after adding album art the music tab crashed.
I deleted all the music files (from the storage card) and tried what rowleav suggested than did a soft reset, but the music tab keeps craching........
This really s....
don't like to do a hard reset as I have a lot of software on it.
anyone knows a way to fix this ???
I have a 16 gb Micro SD card on the Touch Pro, and the Touch Flo player is really not up to the job. Selecting an album or a play list is okay, but I like to listen to music on random. Select all files and it can take 5-10 minutes for the player to display album covers. And sometimes it crashes.
Pocket Tunes handles this many files far better. But I can't get it set up to be the default music player with my HTC bluetooth headset. It still opens the Flo player.
WMP works okay if it is open, but doesn't have cross-fade. Which I like.
I fixed it
Only deleting the playlists like rowleav wrote did not work for me I also had to delete a file called "AudioManager_Eng.vol" (application data\HTC\AudioManager_Eng\AudioManager_Eng.vol)
Then a soft reset isn't needed. Just go back to the music tab and it will create the AudioManager_Eng.vol file again and search for music files.
now i have to try and add my music again to find the one causing the problems. at least it's now easy to repair once it goes wrong again
Worked!

This worked beautifully! Thanx!
I'm having the same issue - with a crash every time I go to the music tab. I was having problems deleting the AudioManager_Eng.vol file. I did a soft reset to delete the file, and now all seems to be working as it re-builds the library.
i have a similar problem but tf3d hangs when i want to stop the musicplayer and select another tab. only 'start' still works so i can stop and restart tf3d but when i finish listening to music the ritual starts over.
any suggestions ? (i removed the mentioned files but that didn't fixe it).
Hi All,
A few days ago, a client of mine brought me back his diamond saying that the music player was not working.
After more than 8 hours of trying to fix this issue by trying everything I could find on this forum and every possible solution my imagination could think of, I'm left no other choice than asking the community for help.
When ever I put a large amount of files on the storage card (around 3Gb) and use the TF3D interface to play the music, Audiomanger_eng.exe crashes (sometime other files crash but I forgot the names).
Now, I have tried pretty much everything:
1. I tried both WMP 11 to transfer the files and the direct copy/paste of the files to the storage card.
2. I tried putting another set of songs coming from a different PC
3. I tried having all the songs together in the same folder (that caused even more issues as album arts were overlapping) and I tried the WMP function to get each songs in its correct subfolder (ie: artist... Album...).
4. I tried deleting the database file of the AudioManager (which causes it to rescan all the files which it does but then crashes as it tries to play certain songs)
5. I tried on two different Diamonds, using 1.93 in English (HK), 1.93 in French, TOM_DiamondProject_v3.2, Dutty's latest rom. Through this I tried the original HARD SPL of HTC and also Olinex and another guy's one. (All the test I did using these various ROM created approximatively the same error though varied slightly from one ROM to the other)
6. I have also tried a million soft reset and hard resets.
7. I have tried loading the music in Windows Media Player Mobile which works perfectly but does not change anything to the problem I have with the TF3D player.
8. Following stevedpl7's comment, I went in the file explorer, created a new folder called My Music, then I cut and paste all the music from Storage/Music to Storage/My Music, went to the application data/HTC/AudioManager_eng/ and deleted the database file: AudioManager_Eng.vol, then I did a soft reset. When I now go to the music Tab, it crashes before I even get a chance to play a song. In the music list, I can see all the transferred files.
9. And many other small things....
Any idea or suggestions?
Just a quick question about where you are putting the music files?
I have exactly the same problem if i save my music foldes to Internal Storage\Music (which is where WMP saves them by default)
However when i created a 'My Music' folder in the Internal Storage\My Documents All worked fine. So Try....
Internal Storage\My Documents\My Music\''your music here''
As i said you may well have to create the 'My Music' folder, on my Diamond only My Pictures and My Videos were there by default.
Hope this helps.
I have the same problem, the only thing I can put it down to is the new 1.93 ROM from HTC, as it was working fine until I flashed the phone with this ROM.
I have tried the solutions above and it still isn't working, so if anybody else has further ideas please let me know, if not I'll wait for the official word back from HTC and post their solutions up here also.
Sadly, it didn't work either for me
Thanks you Stevedpl7 for the info, sadly I have tried and the problem even got worse
I went in the file explorer, created a new folder called My Music, then I cut and paste all the music from Storage/Music to Storage/My Music, went to the application data/HTC/AudioManager_eng/ and deleted the database file: AudioManager_Eng.vol, then I did a soft reset.
When I now go to the music Tab, it crashes before I even get a chance to play a song. I the music list, I can see all the transfered files.
Are those files made from scratch on your or the customer's PC, or were they downloaded from the Internet? I know that some downloaded MP3s are defective, furthermore some players do not understand all variations of the MP3-format like VBR, joint stereo et al. There is no strict "standard" for MP3, the technology has developed over the years and no one has made an attempt to define "levels" as they did with MPG-2 or with DivX. So there is always a level of uncertainty whether a player is able to play all files. A resampling with a MP3-software or even converting them from MP3 to WMA might help.
It's always a good idea to use WMP on the PC to create MP3 or WMA. Not because it excels in quality, but because it uses very standard features in the format.
Have fun!

They are mainly downloaded MP3s and a few WMAs. When I transfer the files using WMP, some are converted. The thing is that all these files work fine in Windows Media Player on the Phone.
I just realised that there is a possibility that if your MP3's has the album artwork embedded into the files. the audio manager would crash.
currently i'm doing a trial and error of it and have yet to fully test everything out just yet.
would anyone like to comment or verify if the embedded artwork might be the cause of crashes?
I think you are right. I have tried putting one song with the artwork embeded and it crashes the software!!!
erm. and yet. i did manage to sneak in one album with an embedded artwork. :\
but that was 1. i tried it with another album with the embedded artwork and had a crash.
I'm now thinking about giving up and installing TF3D config tool to hide the music tab and then install the old audio manager to play the music

This is painful...
just spent 3 hours trying to figure out which mp3's work and which doesnt.
like wth... i dont get it. someone please assist in explaining how audio manager works ?
Same problem here, anyone knows how to solve this?
Note even the original demo tunes work
Audiomanager worked fine before (1.37 ROM), but when I updated to 1.93.413.3 SVE not even the "built in" demo tunes work. It just hangs on the first tune... Removing the .vol file does not solve the problem. Windows Media player can play the tunes without problems.
Use MP3Tag to mass delete all coveralbum info from your MP3 files on the PC side and then resync everything back using WMP. This solved all freezing problems with the TF Audio Manager for me. MP3Tag can be found here: http://www.mp3tag.de/

Confirmed that this method does work
Works but people embed album art coz they want it to show up in the AudioManager in the first place. Now the only way to do is, is to extract the album art, rename it to folder.jpg and put it in the song's album folder. This is a really huge hassle especially if u've got tons of files embedded with album art....
Did you find a solution in the end ?
This issue is not tolerable for such a ppc... .
So if I happen to copy too many albums or mp3 files, my phone would crash and won't be the music ?

U have to remove your embedded album art from your mp3 first before transferring, and then extract that album art and put it in the same folder as the mp3 with the name folder.jpg. A huge hassle for people who have a huge collection of mp3s with embedded artwork.
Anyways, I've written to HTC Tech Support about this and "strongly suggested" to them a ROM update for this issue.
Audio Manager crash with mp3 in VBR mode ! I've converted my mp3 in CBR mode, and all went ok !
Is there a better solution to this than removing the embedded artwork?
please help me.
i deletet the default mp3s out of the internal storage.
i used my explorer to do so.
now i cant use other music with the htc music player.
i copied my new music to my diamond with the windows media player and the wmp on the diamond works still fine. but not the htc player. the deletet files are still in the htc player and i cant delete them.
can someone post a cab to reinstall the player or a sulution to workaround?
Thx
Do you mean the TF3D player?
what folder did you copy your music to?
In any event, you should be able to click on "Library" on the lower left, then go to "All Songs" and click on one of the songs - this should then load all your songs onto the TF3D player
..... alternatively, save your songs in different playlists and the go to "Playlists" instead of "All Songs" and selct one song and your playlist will be loaded.
Hope this helps
i have copied the songs in /internal storage/music/the Offspring/Rise and Fall, Rage and Grace/
when i go to library:
there are the 2 sample songs. but cant delete or play them because i deletet them out of the internal storage.
cant create a new playlist in the tf3d player. everytime i do this the player says the the song was added to the new playlist. but there is no song to add.
maybe a silly question - but did you soft reset?
Delete Application Data/HTC/AudioManager/AudioManager_Eng.vol and do soft reset.
yes i did a soft reset.
i try to delete the file.
Edit:
That solved the Problem. Thanks for your help
and sorry for my poor english
Hi,
Tried googling about my really ANNOYING problem. My Music app or Winamp no matter which one since they all use the same Media "List" from android gets totally messed up.
Ie, if I want to go see Albums, It makes a "Album" in the list of each song in the Album. So if I want to listen to a Album I choose a Album from the List but It just contains One(1) song which is in that Album.
I cleared data for Music and Winamp and used Dev Tools Media scanner with no luck. Any tips?
I would try removing all the music on your SD card and recopying it. (If you have a card reader I would use that because it will be much faster then via usb)
