[Q] mp3's on Froyo 0.6.6? - Nook Color General

Where do you store mp3s so the standard music player will see them? I am on nookie froyo 0.6.6 and i have tried every directory and i can't find them in the app. I even tried in the system itself using root explorer. I know i can use other apps to play them, like rock player, but they play one song, they don't do the whole album, or playlists.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks!

Anyone have any luck getting the standard music player to find your songs?

Bump.
I'm having the same issue as well...any input is greatly appreciated!

I'm actually on the most recent version, but I still can't figure out (other than RockPlayer) how to get music on to the standard music app. The apps don't recognize any of my mp3s.

Audiobook players ?

Anyone found any good audiobook players ?
Main requirement is an audio player that will automatically remember where where you were in your book exactly.
Sorry to necro-bump this, but I'd love to know if anyone has found a decent Audiobook player yet? Anything that would remember where you were after closing the app would work. Thanks

i use Meridian Evolve
(music-> last played)
I would be interested too.
meridian evolve id not really an audiobook player. the last played feature is nice, but would start from the beginning of the file if there was another file played in the meantime... :-(
is the best that I have found
I think the stock Android music player has a feature where if you put your audio files into a directory named "podcasts" it will remember the current position for each of those audio files.
Does this work on the Hero?

stock music player changes in froyo

Hey guys anyone know of any new changes in the stock music player? Will there actually be an EQ? I even noticed the music player looked different at the Google IO correct me if I'm wrong if anyone knows anything let us know even though the froyo out now still has some bugs thnx
Mine did not play .aac files
No changes yet. The demo was for whats to come in a later update. Theres absolutely no change in froyo.
No change in Froyo. The new music player is for the Gingerbread update.

That is a shame, if google put as much effort into the music player, as they did the gallery, they would be set.
Mine didn't either

thnx I wish they would sooner because the music really SUCKS and is flat on there
Nope, no sign of the Music player demoed in the keynote. I suggest Cubed, it's a very slick music player.
I like mixZing too. Automatically makes intelligent choices on what to play next based on your current music queue

are you sure look at when that guy transfers music onto his phone from a computer the controls look different unless he is using another player?
apk path has to be different, because i tried to apply the music mod that was available on 2.1 (allowed you to put a decent looking widget with album cover on a screen)
now i have two copies of music :/ my headset buttons control only the froyo version, but not the music widget i want.
sucks, lol

Hey guys if your having problems playing some music files here's what you do:
Put the music that you can't play on your sd card.
Get "Astro file manager" from the market.
open the app and find your music.
select the song click and hold it...
select "Edit" and then "Rename"
delete what ever is after .
(for example, song Iloveyou.wma)
(delete the wma and type .mp3
and your all SET!
I cant play .wav files, I get voicemail from my office (exchange) in a .wav format and I cant play them anymore (used to on 2.1).
Runing 2.2 now, any suggestions?
I contacted the developer of btunes and he said he doesn't even have permission to develop or put an equalizer on his music player whatever that is supposed to mean? lol

Same here. My voip carrier send voicemails as GSM6.1/wav email attachments. My N1 cannot open play them. So I have no suggestions but would love to be able to play them on the phone.

I am looking for a way to fix this as well... but I have not had any luck finding anyone with a fix.
I suppose it is just not as important to very many people... but it sure would be nice to be able to listen to my voice mail I get in my inbox.
Hmmmmmm...
I seem to be able to play wav files in the CM music app, Rock Player, and PowerAMP. Suggest trying one of those...

I had the same problem until I upgraded to Gingerbread (using micromod777's ROM). Now all of my music has been recognized again.

[Q] my captivate can not playing Mp3 files suddenly

Hi Suddenly my phone can not play mp3 files. I'm using player pro, and default player 'music player' both of them. If I try to play it the "Sorry the player does not spport this type of audio file" message keep coming out. Even it can not play video, and it says it has problem with playing video. Even the ringtone I made from an mp3 file can not be played right now. So when it get calls it gives silence.
I've heard that there's some apps for playing media files, I might miss that now. can anybody tell me where i can get those apps?
Do you have any idea about this? I rooted the phone, but didn't change the rom. it has still 2.1.

I'm having the same issue after the Froyo update. The only solution I've found is to reboot which, to me, is bull****.
I have two Captivates running Phoenix Ultimate and they have both exhibited this. rebooting does fix it but I don't really consider that a fix.
Pro Player is the prefered player but I noticed it does this with the stock player as well.
Did anyone find a permanent fix for this?
My Captivate was working fine but started doing this randomly after I upgraded to 2.2. I will not be able to play any media, won't connect to youtube either. Of course the reboot works, but I miss calls because it randomly stops playing my custom ringtone.
Same here. Anyone have a fix?
Not playing mp3 suddenly
I am also having this problem with audio and video files not playing.Yes, reboot works but is not a fix!
I am also having this problem. It happens like twice a day now, really starting to piss me off. Any solution get?
U see alot of posts but no info that is needed to help. No rom version, no modem, no kernel info. All these things matter.
Mine is SGH-I896
Firmware 2.2
Baseband I896UXJL1
Kernal 206.32.9
Build FROYO.UXJL1
This is getting so annoying...
I am on 2.3.3 (Mosaic III, a jvh build) using X-cal's 1.2 no voodoo reorient jvh kernel. Previously, I used Phoenix and mostly speedmod kernels. Since upgrading to Froyo, I cannot play 95% of my music.
Currently, the included Mosaic music players (both stock 1.1.1 and miui v. 1) only play about 5% of my non-drm mp3s which are stored on my external sd card. (The error says "sorry, the player does not support this audio file" or something like that; but they are all mp3s with Id3v2.2 tags. I painstakingly checked. 95% are rendered unknown artist and are unplayable by the music players.) I have deleted and reloaded the music to no avail. Again, I had the same problem under Froyo (Phoenix Roms) but no problems under Eclair. I don't think this is a Rom based issue but I'm not prepared to rule it out.
I have tried at least four other music apps and they all have the same problem.
I will try to remove both included music apps (which are regarded as system apps) and reinstall.
Question: is there an explanation as to what is causing this? Whether or not there is an explanation, has anyone found a resolution?
This has been a frustrating several months and I thought, foolishly, that Gingerbread would solve the issue.
Any relevant insight on this (ruled out culprits, etc.)?

Unfortunately, this still doesn't work. I'm completely perplexed. I use my phone as an mp3 player. But now, that functionality is useless.

This might sound VERY WEIRD, but trust me, remove the official Twitter app. I was facing this issue as well and when I Googled around, I found that other people were running into this as well and was in-fact caused by the Twitter app.

I found that answer too but, fortunately or unfortunately, I don't have the twitter app and never have had the twitter app.
Is it possible to bump this problem/error to the Team Phoenix Devs?
Just to restate the problem: My phone refuses to play mp3's. Since Phoenix Rising Froyo Roms (using Speedmod kernels) to Mosaic III (using X-cal's 1.2 no voodoo reorient jvh kernel) I cannot play my non-drm mp3 music collection stored on my external sd card. The error says "sorry, the player does not support this audio file" or something like that. I've only used Team Phoenix Roms. I've searched far and wide on the Internet, I've reformatted my SD card, installed different music apps, uninstalled and reinstalled music apps, changed the mp3 ID3 tags on iTunes, tried an mp3tagger on the phone, reinstalled Adobe Flash 10.3, cleared music app caches, rebooted, deleted and reloaded the music all to no avail.
Is there something i have not tried? Can Team Phoenix help solve this dilemma?
Short Mp3 ringtones also do not work. :-(
This seems to happen to my youtube app also. Just stops playing videos and phone needs a restart... So I can't listen to music or watch youtube videos.. happening at least once a day now..
For Music:
Try switching your id3 tags to v2.3. I had v2.4, switched to v2.1 when this problem occurred only to discover that only old Android releases had problems with v2.3. (I'm led to believe Android still has problems with v2.4.) I now hear v2.3 should be read.
Based on this message from Apr 11, 2010, on the official Android open issues debugger list, several users reported improved functionality after employing the following: After switching tags, Go to Menu, Settings, Applications, Manage Applications, Options Filter All, Media Storage, Clear Data, Power off the phone, power on the phone.
Youtube: I'm sure you have done this but have you tried different versions of Adobe Flash (latest version 10.3, available in Market) and uninstalling twitter (if you have twitter installed)? Did you clear youtube's memory cache, uninstall, reboot, and reinstall?
Hope something here works for someone. I haven't be able to try the music suggestions yet.
Captivate - Mosaic III
Progress!
Update:
So I decided to go back to a music syncing program to see if that would solve the problem of making the music playable. In particular, I went back to Doubletwist (which was buggy as hell and why I dumped it). So I deleted all of the songs from Android, deleted the media storage cache, deleted the old library file restored in Double Twist, and synched as outlined above.
Result: Roughly 60 - 70% of the music works! The syncing took nearly 12 hours to load 20GBs of music. When I would simply "transfer" it by selecting and dragging, it would take 3 hrs. Unfortunately there are still 139 unknown artists -- even if songs are from artists with other (if not the same) readable album.
Why do some of the songs play and others do not? Not sure just yet. Will investigate further.
Note: If after syncing Doubletwist, and your playlists don't show up, according to this XDA post I hear a reboot may work.
Again, hope this helps someone.

Haven't tried it but good reviews and seems to do what you need
Hope I helped you.
I also need folders (I hate ID3 libraries) and I'm using Poweramp Music Player. It's overall a very good music player!
"Folder Player" downloaded and works nice. I need to fiddle arount a bit to see if i like it as my default

[Q] Making a Foobar2000 control app

Hi,
I am making a Foobar2000 control app by using the foo_httpcontrol add-on. I figured out how I can run certain commands, but I am completely blank on how to get information back from the server like playlists or current playing song. Does anyone have exprience with this on Android or knows how to do it on wp8?
Also: currently I am using a hidden browser for executing the commands, would it be better/possible to use webrequests or something for that?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I can't say I could help you with foo_httpcontrol. I haven't used it that much.
I'd recommend using the DLNA plugin instead. Using the DLNA app made either by Nokia or HTC (it was that way with wp7, not sure on wp8) would be a similar experience to playing music that's in the music+video tab. Most DLNA apps have the capability to play music from the phone to another device, play music from another device and share it to a third device, e.g. Phone Music -> foobar, foobar -> WP8 -> Bluray player.
Also the album art will display if its in the same folder as the music (the dlna plugin on foobar looks for the folder.jpg first.)

Thank you for your answer, but I don't think that is what I am looking for. My desktop has a music collection that is far greater then the 32gb of my device, and the sound quality is a lot better as well. So I don't want to be streaming from or to my device. Also since my library has about 50.000+ songs I'd prefer to use my well known and set-up music player over searching through my windows folders.
I have seen a couple of android apps that control Foobar2000 by using the plugin I use as well, and they are able to get the song info etc. So it is possible, I just can't figure out how.
(I did download the Nokia Play To app, because streaming like that is also useful at other times )

Well most of my foobar collection are chiptunes, (vgm/sid/gbs) modules (mod, xm, it) and album in a single flac with cue files (flac doesn't always play, but mostly works) so I need it to stream WAV 48khz (its the highest I've tried) over wireless N using that dlna plugin. I have seen some foobar apps thats in the marketplace, but nothing that I'd seen work. Also somthing else that works, is the foo_touchremote plugin. It uses the boujour service (also in Apple's iTunes, but used in other things as well) and works simply with entering a pairing code.
If you still would like to use foo_httpcontrol, I'd ask over at http://www.hydrogenaudio.org.
