[Q] Required: Song changing App - XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
Everytime i need to change a song , i have to open xperia out of pouch and change, Sometimes this feels irritating
Can there be a app which changes songs in media player upon clicking call recieve button in the wired earphone....?

Not sure why your X plays songs one at a time... is it your settings that are set to play one at a time? Every player I used plays them one after another, in the order you specify or shuffle or according to playlist or whatever... I can't say I ever had to physically advance songs. I listen to mine over the bluetooth and the phone is in my bag, would feel pretty peeved if I had to dig into my bag every time I need to get to the next song, especially if I am driving. So check your settings.

I think he wants to use the handsfree/headset button to as a fastforward button so he can skip songs.
I think someone put up a mortscript of that for the HTC media player, but I'm not sure where it's posted.

In that case there is always an HTC remote handsfree. Something like this: http://cgi.ebay.com/HTC-RC-E100-3-5...066569?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item27b4901749

Thanks harveydent, enigma1nz for your reply,
Sorry for my bad english,
harveydent descibed it right, I want an app which forwards songs through earphone,
not sure whether HTC earphone works fine for xperia x1a windowsmediaplayer/pocketpcplayer/S2P player

Change shuffle order?

Has anyone else noticed that with either Windows Media Player or the HTC Audio Manager, it will always use the same shuffle order? Doesn't this defeat the purpose? Anyone know how to get it to "reshuffle" with every play. I am getting tired of hearing my play lists in the same order everytime.

Amen, thought I was the only one who noticed this!
Yes, surprising isn't it. Even a using a search on all forums didn't turn up this same question. I think this is true for Wondows Media Player on all devices, or at least the one's I have owned. Would be nice is HTC could provide a shuffle option that actually shuffles with the Audio Manager. Perhaps they should call it "Reorder" instead of "Shuffle".
Just searched and this is the only thread I could find on this problem.
My media player doesn't actually play the library in folder order, but seems to shuffling only a few songs on the list.
Is playing them from the library the only option? - you can play only one song at a time when accessing the music folder with windows explorer.
to "reshuffle" have you tried turning off shuffle, selecting another track, playing it, then turn shuffle back on.
Thanks for the suggestion - yes I've tried that, but it just seems so hit and miss with the Windows media player and the shuffle play seems to repeat a few tracks too often.
I've now installed MortPlayer and it's working great, so I'm not going to bother with the WM player now.
Thanks.

Yes, this is my half baked solution. I just scroll down and start a few songs later in the list as it is sorted via the playlist. It still does not "shuffle" though, just puts me at a different point in the (properly termed...) reordered playlist. If it's a short playlist though, you will figure out pretty quickly that the songs go in the same order every time, you just started at a different point.
In computing, the random doesn't exist, we can only approach it by simulating.
You won't never get a "real" shuffle. When you select this mode in WMP or HTC audio manager, it follows an algorithm, that's why you always hear songs in the same order with the same playlist. The best way is to change your playlist.
I hope this explanation is helpful and clear, and if somebody can give us more details on the subject, don't hesitate (I like learning more and more )

I hear what you saying regarding computers not being good at random, but I can tell you that this MortPlayer is doing a damn fine job of it.
I think that these workarounds with the playlist are a poor reflection on WM media player - I have about 1.5G in my music folder and MortPlayer can shuffle the lot without the need to first create a playlist.
I didn't say that you need to create a playlist. On the contrary, more the numbers of songs is high, more the order in which you will hear its is changing, because the probability of finding the song "m" on a sample "M" diminishes when you increase "M" ( "M " can be a playlist or 1.5 GB of songs)

TF3D Music Player - Help!

Hi,
Has anyone figured out how to get the TF3D music player to play all tracks by an artist?
Every time I select an Artist I then have to select an album by them!
I like to play from all albums by an artist.
Driving me mad. Resorted to the dreaded WMP!
And I can only get the scrolling covers (as seen in the videos) to work if I only have one song in each folder, otherwise it seems to scroll through the tracks only... Not importnat to me so not a real worry.
Finally I could only get the main screen to not show "No Music Found" by soft reset. If drilling down, it could see and play the songs but the main screen wouldn't search for them until the reset.
I thought I was quite IT literate (I'm a programmer) but can't figure this app out
Thanks in advance - Adam.
Another cry for help
Unfortunately I don't got solutions for your problems, and might as well add one to the list....
I use a Bluetooth audio adapter to my amplifier in the car to play music from my Daimond. On disconnecting and reconnecting to the audio adapter (when starting the car) from WMP every thing goes well, but with the TF3D music player the audio disappears completely.... eg not from the internal speaker and not through the amplifier. Only solution is to switch on and of my Diamond and manually reconnect the audio adapter _before_ starting to play from TF3D.
Sigh
If anybody got a quicker solution than I found, please....

Workout music software

I recently purchased a arm band for my Sprint HTC Touch Pro and it is going to be in a sleeve. Is there some software which I could play a list of songs and it wouldn't stop and disable my screen without pressing the power button?
Just figured I would show my support for this question.
The inability to turn the screen off makes it pretty much worthless for the only time I'd ever want to play music.
Try touchlock pro. and just lock screen.
i just use the touchflo 3d player, does the trick for me create your playlist with media player (fastest way for me to do this was to put my workout tracks in a folder played them in media player and just saved the list.)

Slightly off topic, but where did you buy your armband, and do you like it so far?

my sol'n to this was to use stereo bluetooth. after the music starts playing just scroll back to home (or any other tab), then press the power button to put the screen to sleep. when pausing/playing using A2DP, the screen will come back on, so it'd be a good idea to install something like S2U2 that locks the screen, otherwise you may accidentally press something.
i believe you can use S2P with S2U2 as well, but that seems to be playing through WMP instead of the tf3d player. creating a playlist is more troublesome with wmp
I use Coreplayer with an HTC Diamond Skin. It works well, looks good, and will continue to play with the screen off. If you're interested I can post the skin.
WM
I use the normal Windows Media Player which comes with WM6.1, and it shouldn't turn off the music when you turn off your screen.
Well, as long as you use headphones, and not the devices' speakers.
Mine no longer does this. . I've flashed many ROMs since, maybe I got lucky with one of the ROMs but it would shut off even when using bluetooth stereo.
Now it's cool!
Nitrogen is pretty good music player and also has a button to turn off the screen while keeping the music going.

Jump to next song without delay

Hi
I got the HTC One and I am using the default music player right now. I have a few albums in which every song continues where the previous one stopped. When I listen to them on Winamp (PC) it sounds like I am listening to one track instead of 10 separated songs. But on my HTC One there is a little delay between each songs and it also kinda fades in and out. Is there a way to disable this?
And I have another problem. I don't know why this happens, but whenever I copy a new song to my phone that doesn't has a album cover it automatically uses a picture of me as the album cover. I have no idea why this happens, because the picture it uses is not even in the music folder. My HTC One is updating the pictures, but I have also some unknown artists on my phone and I fear that my picture will stay on them.

[Q] P7 Music Player : Change from alphabetical order to...

Hello everyone,
My question is quite simple but a bit specific :
I like to listen to full albums from the beginning to the end, but the music player can't do that : it only sort the songs by alphabetical order, and all you can do is switching to random...
I stopped used the music player from Huawei for this reason but then I found out that a double tap on the lock screen lunch the music player in a very "neet" way so I keep on using it, I'm cycling a lot and using this device with one hand on a bike is not an easy task...
One of the solutions might be to switch to another music player and another lock screen I guess, but is there anyway to avoid that ? Or to link to "double tap" on the lock screen to another music player ?
Thanks in advance for you answers, this phone is more than awesome for its price !

Found a way of putting songs in order!
The only way I see of doing it is putting letters infront of the song names, so the system automatically orders them. If in a playlist there are no more letters to go with, start entering double, triple combinations if you catch the logic.. For eg. there is a song with a letter "a" and a song with a letter "b", if you want to add another one inbetween them, you have to put an "ab" infront of the desired song's name.. It's kinda lame to have to rename every one in your playlists, but that is the only way I have found effective.
Hope that helps!
Hello,
I understand that it's been years since you asked, Iam facing the same frustration of not being able to enjoy the seamless transition of album tracks.
I found that the free app called VLC does in fact sort albums by track number.
Give it a try and let me know!
