MusicMod Thread?

Hi all. Just installed Serendipity! I am loving musicmod, but can't seem to get it to read the internal music folder structure properly. Did some searching...but...would anyone have a link to an appropriate thread?

Sorry for not supplying enough info. Here's the issue.
PowerAmp "Albums" tab can read /mnt/sdcard/music exactly the way the subfolders are structured. Songs and album folders are in order and complete.
MusicMod "Albums" tab shows split album folders and duplicate songs.
Can't for the life of me figure out how to fix this.

Ok...somehow the tags got screwed up. Now I have to figure out why some can be edited, and some cannot. Back to work!

[Q] What music apps do you use?

Just wondering what new music apps are out there. I tried a lot of the "big" music players (poweramp, 3 cubed,mortplayer, meridian, playerpro, winamp ,doubletwist..etc) and i'm kinda bored with them. I would like them to have good features (eq,album art, etc) and and a good ui but that's about it.

Only thing I really use is Google Music, other than that I use deadbeef. Though Winamp is a close second for me.
Like you, I've tried a few music apps here and there, but (not surprisingly) none even come close to what you can do on a computer.
And btw... It doesn't seem like you meant to post this in the Dev section so I'm not going to flame you for that
But you should pm deca or whoever is our mod to get this moved

ZuneHD UI is really easy to use at least.. How are the features on it though?

It's the whole package for me. It has great themes, 5 or 6 different widgets, a custom status bar while playing music, it shows album art as the background on the now playing screen, and a ton of other stuff. It's just really well designed and very fast and smooth on my hero. I've been using it since closed beta.
It's minimalist when you first install it but slap a theme on it (win7 theme is a good free one) and go through the settings to activate the advanced features and you can't beat it. And its newer to the market with a great dev so its gonna get more features in the future.

This happened to me too. Just clear data in settings > applications > manage applications.

Yeah it's weird but after you install the new Google Music you have to clear data then you can go into the app's setting and connect your Google account.

They still didn't add the abc thing when you scroll with the scroller thing. That makes it so much easier to find a song, especially when driving. I really wish they'd add that/fix it. Any other app that has lists has the abc thing. I still really like the new app though. Much faster and smoother.

I like it so far. And next time AndroidSims please post this in Themes and Apps.

It looks a hell of a lot better.. but I don't think I would use it. Player pro is perfect to me.

Album Art?
It doesn't appear to download album art. Anyone else having issues with the Album Art or is there a special way to install/download it? Thanks.

This app does not download art. It will display art already associated with the mp3. Try using the app iTag, it let's you edit any mp3 tag and add artwork to it as well. Hopes this helps.

Dev-connection 10.1 CyanogenMod Question?

Hi all,
Love this forum and the roms, just have a couple of questions I hope someone can help with.
Just flashed Dev-connection ROM and is so far amazing, battery drain massively improved from Ivendors other ROM. Also moved to Mauritius and poor reception has given rise to phantom key presses, PKF sorted that. Big thanks.
With this ROM I have lost ability to tether my laptop, tried USB, WiFi and Bluetooth with no joy?
What would I gain from installing K^ kernel, I think better battery maybe?
My album art shows in Gallery app, have done .nomedia in most folders, did that in music folder and Apollo couldn't see music, any suggestions?
I love the new camera, 3.0 I believe it is, can't find the version number. I saw it had a voice activated option but can't work out how to trigger it? I seem to get an error when it initiates though, Google search has stopped, I'd that relevant?
Also some of my music Apollo and other apps split my albums up, I assume this is something to so with the track metadata, Paulo Nutini Sunny Side Up is in three folders but in file explorer is correctly just one.
Any help is most appreciated
Thanks again Devs for all the hard work. :thumbup:

Thanks have been trying to answer some q&a stuff to up my posts but not much yet.
If you think it's OK to post in the thread that would be great thanks. I don't feel fair pm the Devs, so grateful for their work though.

Hi, thanks for your report... wifi tethering is fixed in the next update, so you have to wait only a bit ...but for me on R1 usb tether worked fine (didn't tested Bluetooth tethering)
for music disappear in apollo you should remove .nomedia file from music directory, that file tells to the media scanner to not scan that folder, and music is media as images, and apollo splits your music according to metadata, you are right!

Honestly, USB tether worked for 5 min and now I can't get the laptop to see it. Can't wait for the update.
Should have explained clearer I know about the .nomedia, how can I stop my album art showing in gallery?
Any knowledge on the Camera, or K^kernel?
This foot the info on WiFi ap.

about the camera i never tried hands free option, btw with k^kernel you could have more battery life and more free ram. i do not use apollo so i don't know where it saves the album art... if it saves in the same directory as the music i think that you can't do nothing (you may try to not download album art with apollo, i don't know if there is an option) if you need wifi tethering you have to install another rom till the next ADC update.. you can try one of krislibaeer roms, or cm10.1 by davidteri, or erik's liquidsmooth

Think I sussed the album art, I don't think the music players are using them they are just left over from copying the folder from windows which places JPEGs in the folders deleted pictures and music players still have thumbnails. In future will just transfer mp3s only.
Sent from my GT-I9001 using xda app-developers app

About album art:
Most of the time are the pictures stored inside the mp3 file. Just like those I3D tags (or similair)
I think these files you mention are thumbails. Just delete them from the gallery

How to hide files?

So in short I have a couple of revealing pics of my girlfriend and a movie of her stripping, LOL... On my old phone I was able to make a folder, place a file in there called .no media and it would hide everything...
The .nomedia works for the pictures now but the one video still appears. How can I hide this as well?

Rename the extension of the video to something that isn't a video. e.g. .mpg to .bak
use root explorer to open when you want to watch -> open with certain app.

Yea no problem, I'll go ahead and send them right to you... Will the movie still work if I rename it to a .back file?

If you use vlc to open it, it should work

Apps use extensions to identify what files they should open, they do not mean that they can only open those files. So yes, just rename, open it with, and then pick your favorite video app.

I would like to know also. on the g3, i was able to lock the pictures/videos with a password. Im sure there are many apps that can do this, but which is the best?

Such a hassle. Renaming it didn't work I'm not sure why. I just deleted it. I see my girlfriend without clothes on enough anyways
