Google Play Music - Sprint HTC One (M7)

Can someone tell me how to prevent google play music from uploading music from my phone. More specifically I hate seeing podcast that I have downloaded show up in the app. Am I missing something? Please let me know

It doesn't upload anything from your phone. If your podcast is downloaded in a format that's playable using Play Music then it'll put it in the music library.

Is their a way to prevent that from happening?

Not a good way. Adding a (dot) nomedia file (autocorrect won't type the period with the word) to the folder you don't want scanned as media. This would mean you have to open the files through a file manager rather than an audio player.
Summary - create an empty file called (dot) nomedia in the folder you wish apps to ignore. The dot is a period and no spaces

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

Simple answer, no. You either stream it, or download it. There's no in-between.
save youtube video
create youtube account and make playlist where you can save youtube videos for playback (streaming). You will still need internet connection to play videos though. To save videos for playback without internet connected you will have to download. Only way i know.

Music

Can you suggest me a good music app? I've troed some, but nothing to get used to. If you will offer me poweramp, offer me with good link, cause I tried many

The walkman on the Z1 is awful, it crashes fairly frequently, skips songs randomly, doesn't show album artwork properly and keeps trying to sign into the Sony network.

Walkman works great for me, the best player I have ever had...
The only downside is the lack of lossless formats support...
(I also own a copy of PowerAmp)
I said no google play links on poweramp!
Wecond of all, I need more tuning of the player, I have good headphones, so I want something more

Walkman is the best music app I have used. Use the download music info to get all the album art. It has never forced closed on me on my z zl or z1. Try and clear app data. As for links buy the app from google play, you won't find links to pirated software on XDA support the devs.

I used it on my nexus 4 due to only having 16gb of space. With the z1 having a 64gb card I don't need to use play music.

Not sure why your having so many problems with the Walkman Player. Have you tried clearing the data? I used many of the music players and even purchased a few (like PowerAmp) but for a free included app, Walkman is great. I fix album art with a mp3 editor app. Are you looking for a pirated copy of PowerAMP? Its worth the price.

I used to use Google Music as my primary player but I am in love with the walkman player. I used to use GMusicFS to mount those songs in Walkman but eventually found it easier to just keep my favorite albums on my phone as even with that I had skips in my music. I do keep it installed though in case I want to listen to anything else. At about 18,000 songs so far, I love that service.

I have a few FLAC albums that play fine in my Walkman Player. Maybe a recent update?

Google Drive Videos

I have a handful of videos in my google drive account that I want to stream to my chromecast from my android device. I don't want to do a tab cast from a computer.
If I hold on the video in drive, it gives an option to "open with", so I could choose Avia and play it that way. The problem with that is it requires the entire video file to be downloaded first (not a very function option since I could just download the video first as well).
So, anybody know of a way to stream a video from my drive account to my chromecast? Thanks!
I don't know of any way myself (perhaps others do) but I wouldn't expect GDrive to be set up to stream the file at all.
Perhaps this is something that the GPlay Movie app should take into consideration for adding since they do seem intent on integrating all of their services They own all the servers so a request fro GPlay Movie app could redirect the sending of a file to a streaming server that would remove the need to download the file...
I use cloud storage sparingly and usually only to share files to friends family and clients...
I have Plex to serve my media to me wherever I want it.
Avia app. Google drive by itself don't have the cast option yet. update: I can stream directly form drive. No download required.
