Normally i carry my ipod..but tomorrow i wanna try X1 as my music player.
which is the best way to get music on it?
drag n drop .. or use Windows media player to sync?
or is there a better way?
a matter of taste really
if you want to keep using itunes you can
use itune agent to sync to your x1
How do you do that?
It will be awesome if i can sync my Itunes to my xperia. I have a 16GB SD card i want to put some stuff into lol.
I use foobar to listen on pc and whenever I want something on the device I just copy/paste it from the player to the phone. Simple as that.

well downloading and using it

You can only synchronize ONE iTunes playlist to your device with iTune agent. There are two other programs that should be able to synchronize multiple playlists with your device: Salling Media Sync and Pocket Tunes.
yes man you can mange you music withe this step
setting > Connection> usb to pc > and select Disk Drive it is Better and speed
I have tried everything. The best music player/manager for any windows mobile device, is strangely a freeware app, Mortplayer. I have installed this on my wife's X1i, and it displays beautifully, even album art etc. There is now an update for this app with a nice Vista style skin. Other skins are available. Very cool MP3 player indeed. It also plays Ogg files etc etc etc.

Hi i would like to use my Wizard as my main Media Device, i have an old ipod mini but i would like to have the same features as the ipod for podcast on my wizard.
As of now i use Juice (former Ipodder) and sync my podcasts with windows Media Player ---> this soulution stinks, ints buggy as hell and far to slow, the podcast in the media library get updated far to slowly, an sometimes it misses new entries...
I would like a program that sits on my desktop and has the ability to sync podcast seamlessly with my wizard and vidcasts to i can`t just sync the folder were i download all that stuff becouse it de vidcast ar far to big for my one gigger miniSD so i need a programm that takes the .avi (divx) or MPG4 and recodes them for my wizard!
PLEASE help me i am getting so pissed of by Windows Media Player
When you find a solution, let me know! I would like exactly the same thing. I am currently doing similiar to you, downloading podcasts/vidcasts with PodNova and then synching them using Windows Media Player. The problem I face is that WMP doesn't support m4v files, so I can't even get those files to sync using the WMP auto playlist synching. Boooo.
Have you tried Skookum Subscriber?
I've know of two programs for podcatching directly on the PPC:
Skookum Subscriber is in beta and looks like it has some potential, but truth be told I haven't tried it out yet:
http://www.skookummobile.com/index.html
There's also SmartFeed. I've used it for about a month now and it's OK but the UI is a bit wonky: It doesn't work with the keyboard on the SX66, you can't move between podcasts using the navigation pad, there's no way (that I've found) to select multiple podcasts for deletion, and after deleting a podcast nothing is selected by default which forces you to tap on another podcast to do anything.

Why not?
You seem bent on using a terrible piece of software, why not also a terrible phone?
Try Salling Media Sync
If you want to sync the playlists from the iTunes in your PC with your HD2, then you can go for Salling Media Sync. Its Free
There is also an excellent music/ internet radio player and iTunes sync software called Pocket Tunes costing $20, but available for a 15 day trial.
For the HD2 you'd need an extra 'skin' downloaded for it to work, and some of the menu options are a little less finger friendly as they are designed for stylus use, but still quite usable.
The PC client will sync iTunes files and playlists (though not those with DRM, as that's not allowed by Apple). The demo version won't work with WMA files as Microsoft don't allow that!
We did a review of this on 4WinMobile!, though its not been updated for a while
The only reason for having itunes would be the podcasts but this guy has fixed that for us.
He has converted the itunes xml to html using google appspot. So you can now access itunes store and download podcasts straight to your device. It is not the nicest UI but works on IE Opera and skyfire.

If someone wants to make it all nice and tidy feel free.
Just did a search on the forum and noticed that no one had mentioned iTunes Agent (http://ita.sourceforge.net/).
"iTunes Agent is a tiny application which rests in your system tray, constantly looking for devices being connected to your system. If a device it recognizes is connected it enables you to manage it via a playlist in iTunes. You may even associate your player with a Smart Playlist, such as "Party Shuffle", and always have a new collection of tracks on your player!
When you are done modifying the list of tracks for your player you can synchronize it with two small mouse-clicks!"
I thought it was good to mention as i have a itunes server service which i use for music and also a ipod touch and keeping them all in sync inc HD2 and any other device is very handy.

This does a similar sort of thing, doesnt need to start with windows and hide in your tray though!
itunes and HTC HD2
Can itunes be downloaded and purchase the songs, games, and music on the
windows os? Are the games scaled to work on the HTC HD2? If so, how do you do this?

itunes sync
Found a very good free app (doubletwist) that syncronizes itunes / iphoto/ video libraries between the Mac and any storage device. I have been using it on the HTC HD2 for a week and it syncs all the playlists from itunes and even photos and videos. it is linked to amazon music store and content can be downloaded directly. The interface is just like itunes and seems very very easy to use...just select your device from the panel, select playlists and click sync....all the playlists created get recognised by the HTC sense media player.. google doubletwist and download ...and you are all set.....
doubletwist
doesn't work for me. my hd2 is running windows mobile 6.5 and while the app recognizes my device after it's plugged into my computer and also sees the itunes files and playlists, nothing shows up after the supposed sync takes place.
Interested in such an app for my HD2 on WM 6.5
Tried Itunes agent, not really user friendly and didnt manage to add my HD2 on it.
Ive got loads on myusic on itunes, would like to put one of my playlist songs (around 500 mbs of music) on my HD2.. is there a simple way? Copying items from itunes doesnt seem to work.. and there is a mix of MP3 files and AAC files... will they read allright on HD2?
If they where bought from the iTunes store..and no explicitly DRM free, then no, they will not work no matter how you copy them to your device.
I have a folder called music on my sdcard, and another one called video. When I run the media room app, it doesn't pick up that I have any music or videos.
Is there a specific folder these are supposed to go in to so that the media room picks them up?
I don't know about where to put them, but if you run doubletwist.. which is compatible and comes with the default SD card, or download it. You can have it sync a playlist for you. Then where it puts the music you could organize your self? Not a perfect solution, but would get the same result.

doubletwist sucks. Try isync. I tried doubletwist on my Evo and it doesn't allow me to just download the music (it downloads every stinking file that's sound or video on my computer) like I was able to do while syncing my ipod through itunes (that's what we're looking for, something that syncs the same way itunes does). I haven't tried isync yet, but I hear it's more like we mac/ipod owners are used to.
yeah... I'm not a big fan of doubletwist.
It's funny that the Gallery 3D picks up all the media wherever I put it, but the media room app doesn't. The only one it was able to find was a pic I put in the download folder.
I agree double twist sucks.
WMP (windows media player) also recognizes it as a valid sync device.
/sdcard/Music/ARTIST/Album..... etc
Hope that helps.
You can also set up Winamp wireless sync by checking out the newest version of winamp, but that is temperamental at best.
I used to keep my Ipod Nano in my car hooked up with an Aux cable but my Ipod's screen died so I ripped all my music from it onto my hard drive with different folders corresponding to different playlists i had set up.
I remember setting up playlists in the default android music app but they disappear everytime i flash a new ROM.
Ideally, I would like a music player that is able to use the playlists I have setup in Itunes but I do not mind making playlists again as long as they save the playlists on the SD card.
Anyone know of a music player that saves the playlist on the SD card so if I have to hard reset, i dont lose the playlist?
Thanks
Hey, this might be something you're interested in.
The app Audiogalaxy allows you to stream audio to your phone from wherever you setup the server.
You just download the app and download the server from the website and you can use whatever folders you set up with the helper.
I have access to all 60gb of my music as long as I have a data connection streams great. : )
Winamp... Also, if you d/l winamp on your computer you can sync it with itunes and your itunes playlists. then you can also sync your phone with winamp. At least I am pretty sure that's right.
Sweet, I will try these out after work!
I like the sound of this. I'll try it out now
I like stock Samsung player,but if you want something different i recommend DoubleTwist-its nice looking,simple and has streaming.
You could try the MiUi music player found here on xda.
Sent from my always stock, froyo Epic
Use Meridian. You can back up your playlists using the Play Q tab. Simply export your current playlists to the play Q. You can export the play Q lists to the regular playlist tab after flashing new roms. I love that feature
Also with winamp, you can push your music to your device over a wireles network, no cables needed!
CM7 ON MY EPIC!
RE: best music player with playlists...
I've tried a few music players and have to agree that Winamp is really good (and free). It just got a update and I think improved it a lot. The playlist function is really well done. I'm going to have to try the wireless transfer. Thanks for that tip!
Mortplayer. Its the bomb completely customizeable.
cd's or tapes?
