MortPlayer causing my Universal to run out of memory? - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

Hi!
For the moment I'm using the latest MortPlayer v3.31 b8 with sticky equalizer settings. I don't like it but I've no choice since GSPlayer's equalizer settings does not stick after setting it.
OK, the problem is when continuously playing MP3 songs the player will stop and my QTEK9000 will hang at some point in time.
After checking I realized that the Program Memory reaches a very critical low level of about 1.5MB as opposed to beginning of about 22MB.
Anyone having this problem? Is there a solution?
Thanks

The problem sounds like a memory leak bug in MortPlayer. The best you can do is to contact the developer ([email protected]) and make him aware of the problem.

TF3D Music Player problem

hi there
ive synced my hd with wmp and all my songs etc are on there fine in mobile wmp. all the individual songs show up on the songs tab in the tf3d music player as well but my problem is when i go to the artists tab, it shows enough artists to fill the screen but when i finger scroll to go further down, the list just disappears, like theres only the first 10 or so artists and then theres nothing.
has anyone else had this problem?
ive resynced a couple of times, deleted the audiomanager.vol file etc but still the same problem. plus it takes over 2hrs to sync so i dont want to do it that often. have over 2000 tracks.
cheers for any help
just bumping up to get help
i got the same problem... but what doesnt work in my player is the current playlist and songs...
just uploaded a vid 1 minute ago:

Probably the player isn't designed to handle such a big amount of data.
I know this is not a great help, but you should really try CorePlayer. It has a media library, which works quite well .
i have coreplayer and use it for videos but for music (normally also for vids but wmp suxx rele bad [-> codecs]) i always prefered the built-in player.. usually u only listen with shuffle coz i need variety ^.-
i just dont wanna use an extra player coz its an extra app and i wanna avoid that as far as possible.
what i really miss is a hardware button or something like that to chance to the next song.. i used a sony ericsson w850i walkman phone for the last 2 years and i could use the volume buttons (long press) to navigate through the playlist without turning the display on, thats hell useful when its in the pocket, especially when ur riding a bike.

well.. since its not possible to even chose the music dir (seems to must be in <root>/music) the player should be designed to handle any amount of data. i only have 300 songs on there atm. usually i would have, like kauka187, 2000+ =)
i really hope there will be a good firmware update very soon...

Yeah youre prob right about the amount of data.
ive got coreplayer to watch movies and s2p when i want to find a specific song (since theres no search function in built in the tf3d music player WTF!) to play so i guess they will have to do for now until htc hopefully comes up with an update because i really like the look and finger friendliness of their player.

just watched your vid and yeah i have exactly the same prob but like you said, my issue is in the artist tab.
you never know, some bright spark in this community may be able to come up with a fix
This seems to be a bug, I discovered it too with about 3000 songs on the player (which required a softreset for anything to show up in the TF3D menu)
It seems that when you try to scrol down, it snaps back to above the first artist.
When it happend to me I could get back to the other artists if I just scrolled down again.
There's still quite some bugs in the TF3D Player and I wouldn't mind replacing that tab with Coreplayer or WMP itself.

I may have just found a solution to some of the problems with the TF3D music player.
I loaded a bunch of new tracks onto my storage card via the USB cable earlier and edited some of the artist/album details on the tracks I added. The TF3D music player wasn't recognising the new tracks or the changes I'd made to the existing tracks. A soft reset didn't solve the problem. Removing and re-adding TF3D to the Today screen didn't solve the problem. The wrong details were still shown in the player. (As well as this, the Playlists tab wasn't working at all and I couldn't queue up new songs to play.)
Removing and re-inserting the SD card while the list of artists was showing on the HD's screen, however, HAS forced it to re-index the music on the card and now it's all perfect again. Perhaps someone else with a problem could try this?
Sequence:
- copy tracks to the card over the USB lead, or update artist/album details
- unplug USB cable
- go to Artists list in TF3D music library (leave TouchHD turned on)
- remove SD card
- list of artists is erased from screen
- insert SD card
- after a few seconds the list of artists is rebuilt correctly
Report back your results!
did just like you said and the list is built up again, but the list of songs and the now playing list still won't scroll..
yer me 2... just re-inserted the memory card but problem still occurs
the only thing i can think of is an encryption problem in the tags.. i used the musicbrains global database to tag my entire music in order to remove all problems in the tags. but since my tags are ALL tagged the exact same way i got trouble finding the problem ^^
Same problem here!
I had to rebuild my artist-list through updating in WMP. But problems remains to be solved...
I have 860 songs on my card, and it fails to scroll through Albums and All Songs.
Only Artists works.
I believe though, that it is a problem that HTC should solve, and not us. This is not an improvement, tweak or anything else.
This is a real error in the Player!
I tried to describe the problem to the technical support at HTC.
When (if) they respond, I will let you know.
awesome cheers
Update on problem and HTC Tech Support:
HTC has replied to my request, and their recommendation is to clean the card, and then sync it all again through WMP11.
I followed the procedure, but the problem remains (
Only positive thing, however, is that I now have A LOT more album covers!
I'll be back later...

Media Panel - Lag - Cpu Usage - Crash Bug (SOLVED)

UPDATE - Since this problem does not happen on firmware r1a i started cooking and after many cooked roms/oem packages mixing i found the file that is the cause for the problems i described here!!!
The new r2a HTCSrcFlt3.dll on the windows folder has some kind of bug that makes the media panel with some mp3 completely useless.
This mp3 is the perfect example. Anyone with a r2a original rom will have problems playing it. The panel will lag and if you forward the music to about 40min it will stutter !!
http://rapidshare.com/files/202091733/01-armin_van_buuren-76-int.rar
Replacing the HTCSrcFlt3.dll with the original r1a version the media panel no longer lags !! Perfect.
I hope it helps someone here that noticed what i described here.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi guys. I have with me a xperia with r2a firmware.
I have found that the media panel has some big problems. I have made 3 videos showing off that while playing a simple mp3 the interface becomes very very slow for about 1 min. If i pause the music it starts working ok. If i wait for about 1min the media panel starts working ok again.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NVkzyU4n89I
Of course smt is very wrong here with the cpu usage. almost 90% cpu ?????? you can see that on the second video.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnySXqS_P8Q
The 3rd video shows of a bug that makes the app crash needing a reset
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQ85U_mBO7k
I know that i can use 3rd app for listening to music but why can't just things work ok out of the box especially for a phone of this price ??
I'm i alone on this ???
All video are uploaded. Look at the second one for a better idea of what's happening.
i forgot to say that the crash happen mostly with big/long mp3 tracks
Can someone please test if the same happens ??
thank you all
just to say that i've email SE with this problem and i'm awainting response.
In the mean time, nobody else took 5 min to test if you have the same problem ??
thank you
You posted 4x in a row, why not 1 post and 3 edits?
My media panel has no problem at all. Did you try the R1A media panel yet?
I'm thinking either you've got bad media file you're trying to play, or there's something not entirely right with your software. A hard reset is always a great way to start.
thank you for your reply but it's not a bad media file. hard reset , clean reset you name it !
I've tryed pocketplayer and i have no high cpu problem. I think it's sad for this kind of phone. Also the a2dp bug reported by other user is not comfortable.
For your own test, you have here one of the media files that gives me problems.

Please, someone, explain why is this mp3 so special to make the media panel very slow/crash.
Thank you all

I could say "because it's 170MB and the music sucks" but that would not make things easier
I can't download your file due to a slow internet connection but I have 3 concert MP3 files on my phone, each has 200 - 300MB and I never had such problems with them. The player never crashed and never stopped. So it could really be the file itself (bad bitrate maybe?) or some software issue on you phone.
Sorry for cannot help you more.

Same file on HD - Cpu usage + streaming over bluetooth.
guys, after reflashing the rom to r1a version the problem does not appear, the media panel no longer crashes/lags.
But here comes a very cool thing.
I've tested the r2a rom with the old media panel and the problem still exits so i've reflashed the r1a rom but installed at the end the r2a media panel, an it almost works perfectly (still crashes when trying to see some mp3 info)but FINALLY no more lags. So after all it's some file that was changed on the r2a rom that causes the problem.
I would appreciate some help trying to find what is the cause/file(s) that is causing the media panel to work very bad on the r2a rom !!
Any one ?? Thank you !!!

Audio Booster randomly shutting down

I posted about this problem a couple of pages ago. I did some additional observations and it seems that the Audio Booster has a main problem with windows media player (and all the players that use the media player engine, like the HTC Music player, s2p etc.)
However, when I play my music with Conduits Pocket Player I have no problems whatsoever with the Audio Booster. (Fortunately...)
Maybe it's my partical device which is fooling with me, maybe not. I don't know. Are there others users experiencing simular issues with the Audio Booster?
Same issue here... I think it is a massive bug in it.
As I experienced it is stop when the device is go to standby (or I send to there) and happening after the player is jump to the next song. It isn't randomly. I can do it anytime.
Just try it:
Play music - turn on the Audio Booster - go to standby - wait for the next song - go back from standby =>>> The Audio Booster is already OFF
Sad story... I hope they will repair soon.

I experienced that it turns off after each song, I fixed this by pressing the home button rather than the Done softkey, this keeps it running in the background.
Just a quick question. Do you guys have a lot of music files on your MicroSD card? I have 14 gig of music, maybe the music app can't handle that.
Furthermore I have all my album art embedded in the mp3 files. Maybe that causes the booster to quit?
I ask this because I'm really astonished that this problem isn't reported much more on HD2 fora.
I have only 4gig so I don't think so that is the problem.

You mean using for example CorePlayer 1.3.5 is not detected the problem? Maybe as a temporary solution and we could see how to change the CorePlayer and application of music by default (if it works) because even though we're listening to music with another application which not either HTC or Windows by pressing the button on the remote change of composition of the headphones these applications are launched.
Told me I look good, the translation is from google but may not express myself clearly enough.

[PROBLEM] HTC MP3 player stops after every song?

Hi there!
I've a huge problem with the music player on the hd2. It stops after EVERY song. I alsways have to turn on the phone and manually hit play or next to play the next sond. That's quite annoying!
It doesn't matter if I select an album, a playlist or whatver. Even if I turn on repeat-mode, the sond is only played once.
Anyone else have this problem? Is there a solution?
I noticed the same thing, and I already updated to 1.48...
There's a partial solution anyway: if you don't press the power off button to activate the stand by mode, but instead if you let stand by mode to activate by itself, it works correctly.

I've had the same thing happen when I let standby mode activate itself, also have an issue where the MP3s stutter, small 1 second breaks in the music.
Few people use the embedded mp3 player coz it's bad and very slow, especially when you have a massive library.
You should try another player: Kinoma (freeplay is free), CorePlayer, Nitrogen (free), etc...
err, starting an extra application for that doesn't sound very attractive to me. Actually I like the fact that this is integrated into sense.
Regarding the speed: I've ~10 GB of music. The HTC player handles them very well
After i read this, i tested it on my device.
The first time the player stopes after the first track,
but if you press play again and you come to the end, then it switch to the next track without a problem and play it.
regards
I have the repeat button on and it doesnt' stop!! And the built in mp3 player is better than WMP because it actually shows chinese characters properly for me... And the interface looks nice...
I noticed the music player in htc sense only looks at the music folder on the storage card, is there any way to add more folders of music or must I insert all my music there and it will automatically be "synced" every time a new song/folder of songs is added?
On mine, the HTC music player looks for all audio files on both the storage card and the phone itself (anywhere in 'My Documents'). It even picks up ring tones I've added and the 'sample' music on the phone. So, I'm not sure if this is a setting of some kind, but mine seems to do what you want, and your's seems to do what I want.
same as you
I have the exactly same problem my friend nd it's irritating. For now, the only solution I have is the use of bluethoot earphones where I can skip the music on it, but as soon as I put classic earphones it does the same problem. I'm gonna try another player I think. it's a pity because HTC player is starting to become gorgeous
track order
Has anyone noticed track order problems. I've started a thread on this. It's really doing my head in.
Same track order problem here. Posted it to HTC-support, they have no solution. Every other player doesn't have this problem.

HTC music player stopping

(Music stops playing shortly after the HD2 screen turns off)
Anyone found a solution to this yet? Searched all the topics and there isn't a definitive solution. Tried to appled some AudioMan_Eng.cab fix but that didn't work.
Seems to only keep playing if I use windows media player I think.

I have the same problem. I think it has something to do with the album art update function. when i play a song i can see that it tries toget the album art for it. when that fails the song stops.
A
same problem album art problem plz somebody help...
this issue is extremely annoying. Something that seems so simple yet HTC manages to mess it up. This happened to me today and I've never experience this kind of problem with any other form of media player. This is unacceptable and it really is things like this that separates apple from its competitors.
This is starting to really piss me off, I just deleted my music folder and tried doing the syncing method through windows media player (thought maybe having more folders would help), that didn't do anything.
Reduced the amount of songs to 100 and that didn't do anything.
Tried installing different media players and they all have the same problem.. wow this is bull****
Did you see my thread?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=616814
Have you re-formatted the card using the phones application?
I ended up using Mediamonkey to sync as I can specifically setup conversion rules. I have the paid version, I'm not 100% sure that Auto-conversion is part of the free version.
However everything is running great now.
