Music features? Possible or not?

Hey y'all, I was just thinking like maybe would it be possible to infuse the 'recommendations' genius-like feature into the default music player on aospGB? and if we could make a pop-up bubble so if we hit 'home' twice fast it would come up with easier access to the music controls?
Is this possible and is anyone interested? I hate mixzing extraordinarily, but the 'recommendations' playlist is awesome.
Comment and share your opinion please! Thanks y'all!!

Music player

Hey guys, I was wondering what music player you use on your cappy and why that specific music player.
Cheers

Miui strictly because I can add favorites with a single tap of the finger.

+1 to MIUI
My only complaint is that the songs in the album list are alphabetical not by track number

Poweramp, has lots of features, with a equilizer and nice display. All the other ones I tried, were missing one feature or another.

Poweramp, because of the flashy features already mentioned, and one major one - it saves my playlists across flashes, unlike winamp and others I've tried.

I tried power amp but found it had too much distortion even at lower volume. Couldn't take it.

I am using Songbird at rhe moment. It is good, but I miss some features though.

I would say power amp and love the ui ... Also the equalizer is awesome.. But the stock player is pretty good

Winamp, because it really whips the llama's ass!
Seriously, though, I like it because it's simple and responsive.

Moved to proper forum.

PlayerPro. It's just the best out there, period. Has every feature that the other players are missing and the ones they have.

+1 for power amp...used many other music apps but the features and UI of Power amp beats all others...it even works very good with my bluetooth stereo headphones...

I second that. PowerAmp is pretty good but it distorts whenever the CPU reaches 100% load. It distorts a lot to the point that it's unusable. Winamp is good too but the widget is ugly.

Uninstall the Tuneup plug in or whatever you have installed,and install instead the MUSIXMATCH lyrics plug in from the Play store or find the apk,and enjoy,

Thank you.

But is there any way to make the stock music player show lyrics by searching them automatically on the web when playing? Maybe with a plugin?
Thanks

Who else agrees htc has the WORST music player?

I know...random but i kinda feel like ranting and seeing who agrees with me
Htc sense music player is the worst! The whole layout is terrible and you cant even skip songs from the status bar!!! I was hoping sense 4 would have a better music player but its worse then sense 3.6 music player!!!!
Its ugly and a pain to navigate...
Samsungs is easy, just swipe left or right to change sections (artist, albums, songs...etc)
Sonys is also similar to samsungs if i remember correctly
Idk about lg or motorola
Even the aosp music player is better lol (not referring to apollo/whats in cyanogenmod)
At the very least they need to add song skipping capabilities to the notification toggle! To make it more user friendly also remove the stupid menu to switch between sections (artists, albums, songs) and make it more like apollo or,samsungs music player layout where you just swipe to the left or right
Anyways...thats it lol...,so who else hates the htc sense music player? Whats bugs you the most about it?

Hmmmm....just found this http://epiccm.blogspot.com/2012/01/porting-touchwiz-apps-for-cm7.html?m=1....gonna try it with touchwiz music player next time i have free time
Even though apollo is my current favorite and works on sense with no modifications...

I have always liked sense music player... the ONLY thing i didn't like about it was the EQ... or lack there of.. hence why i usually use poweramp for bass songs and stock for normal songs because it sounds nice

haha sometimes the layout pisses me off though i had always had one problem with it.. could be when i deleted connected media but for some reason it wouldn't use the scroll wheel in certain "lists' ex artist, songs, albums and i couldn't go by #,A,B and that irritated me. But hey if it sounds good i wont be picky

Music control

I can confirm that Gear is working with poweramp, it can control music and display metadada ( song name etc...). Just open a music file with an file.explorer and set the type of file.to be open with de desired program. After that the gear will work work with it.

It works mediocre with Google music. It often gets confused with samsung music app and will stop controlling Google music.

did you have to do anything to it? i wonder if i rooted the note and deleted the samsung music app if that would help?

I couldnt get google music to play. Even if google music was active in memory, if I pressed next track on media player on watch - Samsung player would play.
I needed a way to make google music the default player. Google search turned up:
Default App Manager Lite (free)
By appiator
Just use the above app to make google music your default music app. Now gear always plays google music. Plus no need to uninstall Samsung music player or root gn3.

SO, just to be 100% clear before I drop $300 lol, this will make it so the stock Gear music controller controls PowerAmp? As well as S Voice launching through PowerAmp for music? My Motoactv just died and the only way I could justify moving away from it is if this had proper remote features to the PowerAmp since I need my custom EQs for my 86 BMW's speakers. If this is all true, as long as I love my Note 3 coming Monday I will be ordering a Gear ASAP! Thanks in advance guys!

It seems that you need to start the desired music player first on the phone. After that all the commands from gear goes to the opened app. That's my case. I tried to set power amp as the default with app manager lite but it seems that doesn't work.

Thanks! While that may not be perfect, I think I'm sold. If anybody has it working seamlessly please post!

I'm using Android Music Player and works great.

So I have to put songs into the gear itself?
If so, how much memory does the gear even have? Lol

Wait, I'm confused. It appears that some are talking about controlling PowerAmp on the Note through the Media Controller while some are talking about running it on the Gear itself. I want to know if I can use the Music controllers on music players besides Samsung's. Also, I've heard that as soon as the Gear times out and the display turns off that you have to navigate back to the media controls. Is this true and is there any way to avoid it?

Thats where I'm sorta confused myself. I wanna know if I can use my gear to control Poweramp on my phone. Everytime I use the Media Controller, it opens up Samsung music app. As for when the display turns off, I press the power button on the Gear and it's still in the Media Controller. Its cool how it shows song of name etc.
