I have made a media player for windows phone and the goal of it is to expand on features that other media players don't have (including the default zune player) and improve on the faults that other media players have.

v1.2: fixed bug in which app would crash while in the playlist editor if you navigated away from the app and then navigated back to it; fixed song import from zune playing queue bug; fixed performannce-related bugs
v1.1: first free-version release
Features include:
* big buttons

I will take any and all suggestions for improvement (both the free version and the paid version). If you find something, please post either on the support page or here in this thread. If you like my media player, please rate it on the marketplace.
Warning: After uploading the current version to the marketplace, I discovered that the bug with importing songs into a playlist from the Now Playing which causes the program to crash is back. This only happens if you try to import from Now Playing for a blank playlist (nothing had been added or removed yet). A workaround for this is to add a song to the playlist in the playlist editor (even if you aren't going to add it to your playlist), and then import from Now Playing and remove the song you added (if you don't want to keep it). This bug is present in both the paid version and the free, ad-supported version. I am very sorry for this and I will be uploading a fixed version to the marketplace for certification as soon as possible.
Update(4-2-2012): Version with bug fix currently in apphub certification
Update(5-22-2012): even though it's been out in the marketplace for a couple weeks, Version 1.4 is now out for both paid and free, ad-supported versions
Update(2-26-2013): It's been awhile since I last updated this post with the current status of Mobile Media Manager, but the latest version out is version 2.0.1 (for both free and paid versions). I am planning to release a new (maintenance) version soon (but it does have some new stuff in it too), so I need some testers who can give me some helpful input on how to improve.
-- Reserved--
So is there anything I can improve on (besides the bugs mentioned above)??
Thanks, good app
Yeah, I got some inspiration for the UI from Windows Media Player mobile in Windows Phone 6.5 (Windows Mobile 6.x).
thanks for the app....but i have a question...
can you add the ability to search and find music in other folder in wp7??? i mean like the songs that we reseve via bluetooth...(it goes to my document...or some other folder...)
if you could just add this ability to find mp3 file in other folder (except zune folder) it'll be gr8....(but i think MS won't let you do that.... )
I am currently working on importing from skydrive, but I am just starting on that part. I am also trying to figure out a way to stram audio from the internet (via url given by user). If someone could please direct me to the skydrive api documentation for windows phone, that would be much appreciated.
Would really appreciate it if you can implement a graphic equalizer. I think that's what Zune sorely misses.
Ok, first, I don't think I it's possible to do an equalizer yet programatically. As for folders other than the default program folder or media library, I don't think Microsoft will let me do that.
Also, version 1.4 for both the paid and the free version is now in certification and should be out, pending Microsoft Apphub approval. Version 1.4 will come with support for live tiles.
trying to create playlist, then the application turn me to wp7.5
in 2 versions
omnia i8350W
or if i can put two songs on the list once i come back then the application closes
or if i choose to put on the list {if i can create} an entire album then the application closes
thanks, good app

Version 1.4 is now out for both paid and free, ad-supported versions.
Good app . Thanks .
I am currently looking for some beta testers to help improve Mobile Media Manager. If you would like to help, please pm me with your windows live id (and whether your phone is running Windows Phone 7.x or Windows Phone 8).
A new version will be out in a few days which fixes problems with the current version (and also has some new stuff as well).
Version 2.1 has been released for the free version (the paid version update will be following shortly). This version is largely a bug fix version and (for this release) I have removed the limit of 8 songs to a playlist for the fee version. In this release, I have fixed the bug with (quick) playing a system playlist from its live tile. The next version of Mobile Media Manager will have a new splash screen and better support for Windows Phone 8 (now that I finally have some new hardware).

The previous version I have installed now seems pretty stable to me. How stable is this version?
Hi,
I am quite a newbie here (1st post), so bear with me if my
posting style is not perfect.
Anyway, I have donwloaded Coreplayer 1.2.3 and it seems very
stable to me. Movie playback getting better and better!
I usually watch music video clips for fun on my device and
I am checking the sync of the singer lip movement with the
audible music. So for this is version got the best result.
Also, this was the first version I was able to switch from
"GDI" mode to "QTV Display" mode (previous versions did not
offer enjoyable playback using QTV mode).
Also I noticed a new page in preferences: "QTV Display" with
only one option to change: "Tytn II driver mode". (Enabled
by default.) This is quite exciting, I believe. ))
So it seems that there are some custom piece of code is running
when Coreplayer runs on a Kaiser. I think I can feel the result.

Initially it looks good. I'm still going through it and will edit this post i'm sure. The first thing I noticed was your directions on how to add files. Anyone with common sense would be able to figure it out, however, for those that can't figure it out- you need to darken the text. White instruction text on a light background is hard to read. Other than that, so far so good!
Thanks, Ok it will be addressed in the coming build. We have no such issues in other skins: e.g. menu > more > select view > main view.
Just installed. Initial impressions are good.
The UI when the screen is rotated 90 degrees is a bit off-putting (ran that way for five minutes before re-orienting and getting the WAY pretty interface).
EDIT: Just read your reply about other skins. Fixed my issue. I'm retarded.
I dig it. More to come and I use and abuse it.
I'm been looking for an audio player that displays lrc lyrics. Otherwise some basic tag editing out be a nice touch as well.
There's a lot potential in this player and what it can do when it is fully developed, I love the equalizer, I think, one of the first, if not the first music player that offer eq that works! but some presets are always welcomed to be more user-friendly.. just my 2-cents

Why does it need location and phone state permissions? I think I'll stick to the stock, non stalker player.
Phone state (READ_PHONE_STATE) is used for handling the headset button (we don't handle it while incoming phone call)
Location (ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION) is used for ads

Thanks for the clarification. I wish every dev listed out the exact use for each permission request.
Tried out the player and it's great. I tried "Music Folder Player" many times but it never worked properly with CM (wouldn't populate the playlist). This app creates a playlist from my default music folder and play them as designed...

Does it still cut out and/or stop playing when you switch to another process such as gmail?
Hi,
I can't seem to search my music via Artists or Album, am i being stupid ? Most likely i am.
It just lists all songs in Alphabetical order according to Artist name.
I do like it though, works well on my HTC Desire, no bugs so far, screen works well, landscape and Potrait. Artwork is correct. HTC Headphones controls work. Will play more with it later tonight.
I can't seem to get m3u playlists to work.
When I added my music folder, I noticed that it lists all the invisible Mac-related metadata files that start with ._ If you could hide those files, it will keep folks from trying to play them - it looks like it might be locking up the player if I try to open one of them.
The fetch album art function does not always fetch the correct art if there is more than one .jpg present. I have some folders with both front and back album art and it has been selecting the back album art. All the other music players I have tried have selected the correct .jpg or have an option to change the art. Is the program looking for a certain filename such as "folder.jpg" or "albumart.jpg"? Also, is the program able to fetch art from the internet? I have not been able to do so. I have only had art show up in folders that already have it present.
Other than that the player is excellent and I love the EQ! However, I second that presets would be very nice to include and get people started, as would giving frequencies for the EQ bands instead of just "High" and "Low" if this is possible to achieve.
Hope these suggestions are useful to you to improve what is one of the best media players I have tried (and I have tried every one that I can find!)
Thx great app !
Also be cool if you made reset to dafault button in equalizer settings.
Very nice. Two thumbs up, friend.
As for the lyrics option, is there a way we can have them to be possibly read from a txt file on sdcard? I'm just assuming you're going to use it with a website, of course. However, a lot of music, heavy metal for example, commonly lacks lyrics online.
Just a suggestion, and should be easily enough implemented.
Still, very nice application. =]

Sat Rad Player is a WP7 application that allows you to listen to your Sirius or XM subscription on your WP7 device.
You can use the application for free in trial mode which is fully functional, will never expire, but includes advertisements. Purchasing the application will remove the advertisements permanently.
Marketplace link to US version for US based Sirius/XM subscriptions
Marketplace link to CDN version for Candian based Sirius subscriptions (sorry XM isn't supported currently)
Please Note: In order to use this application, you will need to subscribe to the Internet Streaming option available from Sirius/XM.
The current version does not have access to every channel available through Sirius/XM. This is due to Sirius/XM not keeping their legacy streams up to date after a channel reorg that occurred early last year. I’m working on trying to get these additional channels added to the application. You can find a list of channels available at the following link:
Currently Available Channels
Features
Channel guide data is constantly updated so you know what’s playing on each channel at a glance
Capability to store a list of Favorite Channels
Background Audio – listen while running other tasks on the phone, or while the phone is locked.
When the app is running in the background, navigate to your next Favorite channel in your list by using the mini controller’s Back/Forward buttons. Hit the volume button to bring up the mini controller.
Channel guide quick select – easily search for and navigate to a specific channel
Hot List – like the song you are currently listening to? Add it to your hotlist, so you can remember what that song is for later, and if you like you have the option of purchasing it from the Zune Marketplace to download directly to your phone.
Support for both portrait and landscape orientations.
Theme aware – adapts to the theme you have selected on your phone.
Bluetooth Support - great for when you're riding your bike or motorcycle
Choose between High/Low Quality Streams (US version only). The setting is remembered by Channel.
If anyone has any ideas on what they would like to see in the next version of the app, please let me know! I'm very receptive to other's ideas.
And for any issues relating to the app, or any questions, feel free to post them here, use the 'Email Support' button within the app itself, or send an email to [email protected]. I'm fairly quick in responding to support emails.
Hope you enjoy the app, below are a few screen shots of it in action (click image for larger size):
Dear all,
My new app MusicAmp V1.0 is now available for Windows Phone 7, finally after 2 months of hard work on codes and database entry, now you can listen to more than 20000 songs and more than 3000 albums directly from your WP7 , in an amazing interface , search by artists, genres, songs, create playlist..

[Android 2.2+] AGS Stream - Download and play Amateur & professional Adventure Games
Adventure Game Studio is Software for Windows that can create 1st and 3rd person point and click adventure games(www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk). Games can run on Windows, Mac, Linux, IOS, Android and Sony PSP. AGS Stream is a tool created for the Adventure Game Engine: AGS(Adventure Game Studio). This tool is not the run-time or engine itself. It is merely an app that will assist in downloading and installing the game of your choosing onto your Android Device. You can purchase the app for $1.15 here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.agsstream1.diperla&feature
New Version:
AGS 2.1.5 (2/11/13)
Media:
-Changed the Image logo again to better fit the play store, thanks to Selmiak.
App:
-Resized Icon.
-Fixed an error that appears if the device does not have an internet connection.
-Fixed the notification area to properly tell you when a game is being installed or has succeeded or not.
-Adjusted some layouts for different size devices. It still will not be perfect, but it will be better.
-When clicking on the game download notification, it will take you to the apps main page.
-When clicking on a game, the main page will no longer interrupt the page while loading its list of games.
-Downloading on Tablets has been fixed.
-Fixed an issue where if you downloaded a game and then return to any games listing, the notification would report that the game download was %100 when in fact it was still downloading.
Games:
-Added a new game
AGS:
-Updated to the latest AGS Build.
It is now updated to Version 2.1.1
It contains a few features such as:
-Feature Game (With every update, the Featured Game will change)
-9 Games currently installable.
-All games are hosted on my private server to ensure that the games never become unavailable.
-All Games have the project developer listed right below the title.
-Each game gives you a screenshot and brief description along with how large the download will be.
-The app will download, extract and install the game for you.
-The app will download and install the latest daily build of AGS for Android at the time of upgrade/installation.
-Search feature so you can easily find a game you know you want. With 9 games currently available, it shouldn't be too hard to find anyway, but as the database expands, you want to have a search feature so that you can find games easily.
-Slightly different Interface.
-Other little things such as bug fixes, etc...
A new version of the app will be updated to contain a new list of games and features. This will be done once a week. At times, with the updates, new features will also be made available with the App.
Changelog:
AGS Stream 2.1 Update Log (2/8/2013)
Sorry for this one, I had to pull it originally from the store as I noticed a major bug in it. Either way, I have now re-uploaded and it is ready to go.
Games:
-No new games added. I apologize for that. Getting the kinks out of AGS has been very difficult and I had to focus all my time on that for now. However, the next update will have an additional 21 games, bringing it up to 30 games. That will be later in this week or early next.
Interface:
-Updated the Menu system so that it works with the older and the newer versions of Android OS, especially for devices without a hard menu button.
-We now have an action bar which works very well with the design of the app.
AGS:
-JJS has updated his port to Android and therefore it has been included in this update. A new notable feature is that you can use the menu button to bring up the keyboard. Another feature is that its configuration settings are now available and exposed to outside apps, therefore, In the next version coming, we now can allow users to set configuration options for AGS and for the games in general. At the moment it may work, at times it may not. Need to investigate whats going on.
App:
-The App now properly checks if AGS has been installed or not and will prompt you upon the first time you run the app to install it.
-If you do not have the latest daily build of AGS, the app will also prompt you to update AGS.
-Downloading and extracting has been fixed. Therefore, games will properly install whether you are using viewing the app or the game page or not.
-Notification telling you what percentage of the game is downloaded and what its current process is. Please note though that if your device is charging, the notification may not appear properly.
-Fixed some bug fixes.
-Improved App performance.
Games Page:
-If the game has a Youtube vide, you will now have a menu option to view the youtube video.
-If your game provides you with errors, or if your game is not installed properly, you will have the option to re-install the game now or to delete the game directory.
Release Notes for V2.0.0 (1/31/2013)
App:
-More Games coming soon!
- Added a Genre Page for the games and an installed games view.
- Removed Landscape version and different size versions. The app works on almost %100 of all devices and From Android 3+ you can stretch the app on your screen to make it compatible (Built in feature with Android, not this app). So, the app should look good enough on any device. It may not end up looking pretty, but at the very least, smartphones should look good.
- Changed the application icon (Thanks to Selmiac from the AGS Forums)
- Changed Play Store details and description as well as version number.
- You will have a link that takes you to the Official AGS Web site.
- Demo App will no longer be updated.
Interface:
- Updated the interface to look a little cleaner, have a better color scheme that fits in with AGS and its website.
- We included Menu Item both on the main page and also on the games page itself.
- You can now swipe left to right and vice versa on the main page to switch between pages.
Footprint:
- The app will have a smaller footprint than it did before when adding new games. Before we would add the screenshots into the apps resources, making the app larger and larger. This time around, the games list and page will simply load the games screenshot off the web, meaning that the app size will hardly increase as games are added.
AGS Runtime:
-Latest Run Time Build has been added.
-If you have AGS already installed, you can still install the latest version through the app.
Games Page Features:
- New Menu option to take you to the games official web site.
- New Menu option that takes you to the games AGS Database page where you can find more details about the game and user reviews.
- New Menu option that takes you to the main page.
- New Menu option if the game is installed that launches AGS and allows you to play the game.
- If a Game is installed, you can uninstall the game.
New Features:
- You have a "Help" option in the menu that helps you get around the app.
- You have a "What is AGS" option in the menu explaining what AGS is.
- You also have an "About" Section giving you information on the team that brought you AGS.
- Added a Progress Notification to the downloads so that you are aware the game is still downloading.
Bug Fixes:
- Some people were saying that they were having download issues. I looked into it, tinkered with what I could and hope that it solved the issue.
- ANR keyDispatchingTimedOut errors that Many Galaxy S3 and Nexus 7 users were experiencing should be fixed now, or at the very least, made to happen less frequently.
-Freeze ups after the game downloads have been fixed.
