Since upgrading to CM6 Stable I haven't been able to playback mp3 files. Subsonic gives me the error "Prepare failed.: status=-x1 (IOException)". Music player states the device does not support this file type.
I am able to play FLAC files though. looking in /system/lib I do see the flac library but I don't see one for mp3 (I don't know the specific name, I'm comparing against my Vibrant). Any idea how to restore the mp3 codec libraries?

try reflashing cm6, also dont forget to do a wipe
Alright, I did a wipe/factory reset via clockwork then flashed update-cm-6.0.0-N1-signed.zip
After booting I opened music player and tried playing an mp3 file with the same result, flac works but mp3 doesn't
Edit: I tried to flash a stock firmware via adb flash_image. Flashed the system and boot to revert then installed CM6, no change.
Have you tried the default music player? 2.2 has a new media framework, some apps might need updating.

God damn, I finally did a complete reset to stock flashing system.img, boot.img then wiping /data followed by flashing CM6 and everything is working again.

Just to be sure that I have the same problem. I am able to play SOME files while others don´t work at all (gives me the "not recognized" error). ID3 tags do not appear in the phone, but I can see them in my PC.
I tried transferring files from my PC, downloading directly to the phone (DropBox and MP3Download) and most of the files don´t work, only a few do....strange.
Searched and found some people who had issues when upgrading to Froyo, but before flashing CM6 I had already updated to FRF91 Froyo build and had no problems with music files, so I am assuming something happened when flashing CM6. Other problem might be I bought a new 16Gb SD Card some days ago (just when I flashed CM6), so I have yet to be sure which one is guilty.
Well, just to be sure if I have to reset and flash again.

These songs (which are all horrible btw) are taking up about 10 megs of space on my Tilt. I tried deleting them through windows explorer on my pc but it said they were write protected. Then I tried deleting them through file explorer on my phone and tghe option to delete is greyed out. So I opened up WMP and deleted them from the playlist and then went back to file explorer and still its greyed out. Any ides?
You can delete the copies they make in the My Music folder, but you CANNOT delete the ones in windows. They are ROM files & hence protected. If they bug you that much you'll need to flash a new ROM.
Thanks. That's what I was afraid of. I just got everything setup the way I wanted but it looks like it's time to flash Dutty's rom. I've been wanting to do it for a while anyway

Which, because it isn't a ROM you created yourself, will contain another 10MB of stuff you don't want/use.

I personally tested this on TnT Lite 1.02, with no issues in the default browser (other than high memory use, but I guess that's to be expected).

Good point. For cm6.1 beta2, just alter the build.prop as follows:
ro.product.cpu.abi=armeabi-v7a
ro.product.cpu.abi2=armeabi
and reboot.
This was not my fix, and I take no credit for it - it was in the big thread. I believe that the forthcoming beta 3 is going to have this change built-in.

I can confirm it works on CM6 with the above added to the build.prop. I've done it myself.

I have been trying to days now to get this one last piece working. I have copied the flash apk to everywhere I can think of but still can't get it to install. I have tried using ADB (INSTALL_FAILED_INVALID_APK), Droid Explorer (crashes while trying to install), made sure SYSTEM was R/W, and still I am stumped.
Any ideas what else I can try? I am running CM v6.1b2.

Please thank supag for me. I am not a programmer, I purchased this item so I could show my patients video and anatomy intructional pics. There is no way I would have been able to use it with out the combined team effort from all you folks.
P.S. The only change I made to the system was loading Launcher Pro.

I am having the same problem trying to install on full vanilla. In fact, my device will not even download the rar...it fails. I had to copy it from another device....so dumb question, i assume i just need to rename the file to apk, not unrar it?
Flash 10.1 fix
I used a RAR extractor on my windows machine then side loaded the APK into SD on system. I then used ES file explorer to find the file On the internal SD and when I opened it it gave me the option to install. Install went off without a hitch.
I have stock system with no ROM changes and I loaded launcher pro which I use instead onf TapNTap. I have now viewed many Utube video's as well as movie trailers with no problems.
Hope that helps

My apologies for not explaining more fully. I actually have the build.prop edit in place. I tried copying the flash apk to /system as well as /system/app. My problem is that I can't get it to install. Either I get an error, the program attempting the install crashes, or nothing happens.
By the way, you mention a beta 3 of CM. Any idea where I can find it? I did a quick 'net search but came up with nothing specific for the gtablet. Guess I need to plow through the megathread again.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Edit: Could it be I need to fix flash prior to installing CM? I had to do that with the wifi hack before it would work. Guess I need to get another backup going just in case.
Edit (again): Never mind about Beta 3. I see in the megathread that it is in the works.
For the APK error, not sure about vanilla (never tried it). TnT Lite is 90% vanilla so I figured it should work on full stock.
I usually install with "adb install", which is how I tested it. I assumed a sideload would also work. I haven't put it in /system yet although I probably will do that when I build out TnT Lite 2.00 - that's coming next week btw, as soon as VS sends out their new firmware update and I can get my hands on it.

Yeah, the ADB install just gave me an invalid APK error so I gave up there.
I may try flashing back to stock(ish) and installing from there.

I am having the same problem as iksnae. I changed the Rom to TNT Lite 2.0.2 prior to loading the 10.1 Flash Player. I get Youtube videos and even Angry Birds but I can't get flash video from CNN or Hulu? Should I flash back to stock and then add flash. If so can someone point me to that thread? Every other hack has worked perfectly.

My GTab was configured like yours. I unintalled Flash 10.1 and loaded the vanilla "out-of-the-box" Rom version. This version also had the clockwork menu so when you Flash don't panic if you see this pop up, just follow the instructions for loading the update.zip file from the /sdcard (I think it was option 2). I then side loaded Flash 10.1.apk from the PC to /sdcard and using ES File Explorer to access /sdcard, I doubled clicked on the Flash 10.1.abk to install.
Then I reinstalled TnT_Lite 2.0, flashed and then TnT_Lite 2.02 & Flashed this update.
ESPN3 works great. Also get Flash_TV from the Android Market and you now have IPTV. I am anxious to get the docking module so I can stream HDMI 1080P to my 46" LCD. No more cable, no more monthly cable bills (I do get internet 28MB/sec service).
Still looking for an optimized Nvidia Tegra 2 video media player that will take advantage of the processors embedded video encoder functions. I expect this will play HDMI 1080P movies quite nicely. Rock Player is rumored to be working on a dual core Cortex 9 version. Right now it plays using the software control option and is slow and clunky.
I believe that Flash 10.1 is optimized for the Nvidia Tegra 2 processor and it is quite nice. The streaming videos play smoothly. Not sure how they will play in HD when using the docking module and the HGMI connection to the large screen.
Best of luck. It's easy once you figured out how to do the original Flash load(s).

Thank you for this 11/29 edit pointer to the flash apk file (rename txt to API), all I have done is rooted thus far with z4root, stock TnT, and now YouTube videos work!
Hi there,
Few days ago I noticed that MX Video Player (v1.5a) that I am using is not showing anymore list of my videos in content folder. I tried following without success:
- create new folders on internal & external SD cards
- unmount/mount all SD cards
- uninstall/install MX Video Player
- wipe ROM and install complete new fresh ROM (chivato's)
All above not helped to solve this problem!
Anyway, existing video folder in ext. SD Card is still vissible to default LG video player and also to File Expert, Root Explorer, etc. and can browse and start playing all my videos with MX Video Player but I inside app (Folders) is still notice: No videos were found!
Any clue?
Cheers
EDIT: After support from MX Video Player team, my mystery is finally solved. In player preferences was checked feature '.nomedia recognition' on Preferences > List? It should be turned off to scan all files ignoring existence of .nomedia file!
Thank you all for help and specially MX player support!
That happens to my mx player too. However, once I open the file from my ES Explorer (and pause it and exit the explorer), I can go back in mx and it will see all the videos.
Also, make sure you double check your mx player settings and make sure that it's not excluding the folders you want to find.

I tried like you told, but still no luck. Also, my video folders are checked but MX video player just can not find my files??? Unbeliveable...
I even tried to restore through CWM my older backups and MX player still don't want to list my video files!
Cheers
Or maybe it has got something to do with the way ROM functions ? I'm on the stock ROM and so far things are good. No app has behaved abnormally, ever. Only when I try to play video files that requires some codec not provided out-of-the box that it enters into a loop and it crashes.
Try some other app to see if the problem persists or it could be that the problem seems to be somewhere else
there a setting in the menu wich permits to specify the path of your videos and
add a lot of folders .. i think this will solve the problem
Hello,
I was using MX Video player with ROMs stock v20L and rebuild v20o, v20q without any problems until few days ago. I did not change anything on ROM or apps preferences. Just opened app and list of videos were not showed anymore. After several reinstalls, I even tried to install fresh copy of new ROM (chivato's FLEXBOMB) after wiping all data/cache/dalvik and then MX player but still without succes to get my video list inside. Today I installed Mobo Player and my video folders are accesible normally through Mobo!
When I browse videos through several explorers like ES File Explorer or File Expert, my video folders are visible to them and MX video player starts to run video without any problem but when I choose my folders inside MX player refresh don't work. I tried/checked all suggestion from official FAQ http://sites.google.com/site/mxvpen/faq#TOC-I-installed-MX-Video-Player-but-vid bit still have no luck! I don't know what could be problem...
have you tried to go in applications installer,delete cache and data?
have you tried to delete the mx folder and reinstalled the app?

Yes, tried that all before! No help so far!
I even tried to restore my backup through CWM where all system was OK for sure, but even then MX player won't find folders. Realy strange!
pls go in mx player setting and plz send me what's the path there..
After plz send me the path of your multimedia files..
Cheers
I was hoping this would solve your problem
If you still don't see video files, the files may be set as hidden. To get around this, go to [Preference]->[Video list] and make sure "Display hidden files" is checked and ".nomedia recognition" is unchecked. Press "Refresh" after you changed the preference
Or
You can try placing a single video file on root directory and see if MX fetches it for you. If it doesn't then something permanent has happened.
Which is wierd

Paths are in both ways same, this is not problem. I found only strange when I add paths to my folders (I have one folder on int. SD card & one on my ext. SD card) and checked them, after I exit preferences and enter preferereces again, paths are still there but they are unchecked again??? Please, can someone check in his settings are paths to video directories are checked? I don't know why this can not be saved in my preferences!

Also tried 2nd suggestion and seems to MX player can not remember paths for folders to scan. Paths are exisiting but they are remain unchecked after leaving settings. Btw. I am using this player since 1st release and I am familiar with his settings but now I am kind of crazy because this wierd behaviour.

Opened my MXPlayer, and all folders are unselected too. It seems that as long as they're there, you're fine.
I have mnt/emmc and mnt/sdcard paths in it.

Hi,
I received answer from MX Player support that new v1.6 which is avaliable for download have improved search for folders. Just installed and still have same problem. After that I decided to start from beggining again. Reboot to CWM, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, wipe dalvik cache, clean install ROM - rebuild of v20q update, download MX player from market and problem still persist. When I open MX Player I got message: No videos were found. Tried all with both SD Cards - internal & external! Just want to notice again. I also tried Mobo player and he is working normally - found all my videos in specified folders which MX player can not! Now, I am lost all my ideas for possible solutions. 10 days ago everything was fine. I did not change anything, just one day want to play some videos on my phone and my nightmares stared. Ok, I will accept some hardware failure but why Mobo player is working and also stock video player. They are seeing my folders normally. So that means my hardware is ok (phone and SD cards) and video files also. I can browse my video files through File Expert and choose MX player - he is playing files normally but only can not scan them any more! I realy like this player and don't want give up of him! Any new help will be welcome!
Cheers

I am using:
Stock ROM XXMEB5
Stock Kernel
Stock Recovery
EDIT: Finally Solved the Problem. The phone was not resetting properly, so for users facing this problem there are 2 possible solutions:
1. Flash stock rom, goto stock recovery and from there wipe data if CWM does not do it properly (In my case CWM did not do it properly)
2. The other solution, the info i figured out was that it had to do something with a folder in Android/Data directory. Try to delete folders one by one to see if this fixes the error
I recently updated OTA to 4.1.2 and have suddenly got this same problem today, im not technically that great so all i did was save the files i wanted to keep and did a factory reset but nothing has changed. I can open my pictures in Smart Gallery Lock Free but im also having the problem that nothing deteles properly, everything i delete re-appears when i re enter Smart Gallery
I have tried removing the files directly from "My Files" but it will only work on the extSdCard not sdcard0 its says deleted but doesnt go anywhere.
I have looked at point 2. but i dont know what i can delete without making things worse
Hope somebody can help
same problem in my SGS II, nothing woks, wipe data reset factory i have done every thing nothing works my only alternativ eis using quickpic app
I an running Sense based Roms on my One, went from 4.1 to 4.2, and lost my media content. Did some searching, figured out it what happened, fixed that problem, but now I have a different sort of issue.....
I can download a new ZIP file, usually ROM's, onto the internal SD, transferring them from my laptop. The files show up in my windows explorer, can delete, add, view ZIPs, just like normal, no problem. The Issue I have is that when I boot into CWM recovery, the only zip file that shows up is one for an older ROM, none of the new ZIP files I add show up in recovery, and the one sitting in there doesn't show up in Windows Explorer.
The only way I have been able to flash a new ROM, is to enter in through CWM Rom Manager, select the ZIP there, which shows up no problem, (though the old one that shows up in recovery doesn't show up here), and flash it. This works ok, but is really annoying, especially if you have an issue with a wipe and flash, and have do go do a full restore before trying again, since I can't locate the files any other way.....
How do I get my CWM recovery to recognize the new files? Do I need to reflash CWM?
