Is there any way to add an custom image to artists, I'm using Google Music and I would like to do this, but from what I have seen it is available only for the tracks got from Google Play market, for the songs from SD Card is not possible ?
Upload them to Play Music. Then on desktop you can edit them

Guys is there is any way that default music player on Ob can download album arts for songs those dont have. Is there other way that i can manually download or something and put album arts for my fav song.

I don't think the stock music player I capable of anything else than.. playing music.
I arranged tags & album art through pc with MediaMonkey.
But if you have no desire to do it via pc, there are some apps on the market for downloading covers, besides some music player apps have this function built-in (f.e. MixZing).
Try Powerful Music Player
Try album art grabber

I can't find it! Anyone can help?
The main list can only be viewed that way but you can make a play list and then change the order of the songs to whatever you want it to be
change the music app and get a decent music player (PowerAmp sounds like a good candidate) + extras!
In google music application chose folder instead of recent, etc...

I have all my music on a microSDXC card in my phone, as well as uploaded to Google Play Music's "cloud". But when I try to play music from Google Play Music through my Chromecast, it insists on trying to use my local music and thus gives me the "can't play sideloaded music" error. Is there any way to force the Music app to look only at the cloud as the source for music? The only source options I see are "All Music' or "On device".
If you remove the side loaded music, then pin the music using the play music app, it should stream correctly and you would still have the music on your device for offline use.

Thanks for the idea. I didn't know about pinning. But it looks like this downloads the music from the cloud source, which I really don't want to do, since I have it organized on my microSDXC card already.
You could also try this.

This won't work in my case. The music player I use most the time is one I wrote and it depends on getting album metadata from the Android media database, so I can't put the ".nomedia" files in my music directories, since the Android media database metadata harvester would not find it.
I'd like to be able to keep Google Music for cloud content only as well.
I want to use a third party app for local media files though.
Is there anyway to either
1) Restrict Google Music to scanning only a certain folder
or
2) Have Google Music display cloud content only

try adding .nomedia to the local music folder to preve GMusic scanning the folder (need to run media scanner process after this).
then force your local music app (e.g. poweramp) to scan that folder with your local music - hopefully it ignores the .nomedia flag

I used the .nomedia for Google Music then use PowerAMP for my local music. You may just have to compromise one way or another.
Unmount the sdcard

Yes, I tried doing that but I was using PlayerPro, which does not ignore .nomedia files.
I've been using PowerAmp, and it works great. It lets you select your music directory and ignores .nomedia. Rocket Player also ignores .nomedia, I just didn't like the interface.
I still wish I could use PlayerPro, though. Google definitely should've added an option to restrict its scanner.

It gets annoying unmounting and then rescanning the SD card every time you want to use Chromecast. Wouldn't you agree?
I have music files on My Bionic External SD and want to move them to the 'Download' app on the X , any help ?
It looks like the music files will end up in the google play app . . guess I'll hafta learn to like that particular app other music app suggestions ?
Yeah, Pandora. I never have to transfer files. YMMV.

Move them over to the Music folder using a computer. Can use any music player app afterwards, they should recognize it.
Got music files moved no prob and after looking, I trying out the Amazon mp3 player, it does allow creating playlists ans seed all music in the music folder. Has ads , , but then I never watch the screen while I listen . . .lol. It will just play music alphabetically if you play from the music folder, so I'm about to create a playlist. It seems to support multiple playlists. I'm wondering if any Xposed modules would block ads ? anyone suggest other ad blockers ?
Google play music has been a letdown being a "locker" and I don't use Spotify or Pandora. SoundCloud is supposed to be a partner but they haven't updated their app yet... I currently use PlayerPro, are there any other music apps compatible that will play music stored on my phone? Ideally supporting POPM and ReplayGain ID3 tags

You can use Google play music to play stuff on your phone.
If the music you want is already uploaded to Google music, just download it to your phone from the google music app and it will play offline

Have been doing this to an extent, but GPM is just not good enough. I already put a lot of time in to my collection and GPM is requiring even more effort. It also likes playing my ringtone/notification oggs. Very annoying.
The whole idea of this thread is to not use GPM.
