Hi,
windows media player seems to permanently mute its output whenever I press pause. When I press play again no sound is produced until the current track has finished playing and a new one loaded or the present one is repeated. Is this a known bug, does anyone else have the same problem?
Seen the same thing lots. Annoying when you are halfway through a movie.
Same problem for me. You are not alone!
Hello all.
I just noticed this quirk today, and was curious to see if others have encountered it as well. And of course, if they in that case have found a solution.
My problem is that the TF3D music player has a tendency to cut some files short. When I discovered the problem, I was listening to a file that is supposed to be 54 seconds long. The music player, however, loads this as a 32-second file, and once it reaches the end of that, it skips to the next song. At first I thought the file was incomplete, but after loading it in CorePlayer it plays all the way through without problems.
Strangely, it is sometimes possible to get TF3D to play the entire file, by scanning forward a bit, and letting the song finish. On those occasions, the song length is still listed as 32 seconds, but when it reaches the end of that, it waits until the song is finished before skipping to the next one.
On this song the problem was pretty obvious, since almost half the song is missing, but I have also noticed it in smaller scale on other songs, where the last second or so is cut uff in playback.
I have tried to soft reset the device to let the music player re-read the entire music library (I thought the problem might be an indexing issue), but it didn't help. I have all my music stored on the memory card, with SDTuneUp installed on the device.
Any takes on this?
Hi,
As I already mentioned I have a problem with all music players. Ive used Coreplayer on my Touch HD for a long time.
I tried the same thing on HD2, but it doesnt work, when I hit the power button the music stops nearly instant. Same thing with Pocket Player. I tried the option from former times with the blank screen. Doesnt work, the display is locked and on then.
HTC Music player/tab is also weird, cause it random stops and sometimes mess the whole HTC Sense so that it takes 30 seconds to load after stand-by. I deleted all tags from tracks but the problem persists. BUT it works in standby .
Have anyone an idea, what I can do, to simply use my HTC HD2 as a music player. I prefer to use Coreplayer in background cause its the most reliable player for music (the issues as a video player are well known on Qualcomm processors).
Thanks in advance
It seems that it is possible to blank the screen in Coreplayer but the volume rocker arent working and the button line activates the screen. Is it really not possible to use a music player like on Touch HD?
Core player Audio turns off evertime the screen does.
Same problem here - This is a nightmare!
I use Coreplayer to listen to streaming live radio stations but this is just stupid...every time the screen times out on the HD2 (ie goes dark, as i've set it to in the HTC settings) - CorePlayer (and any other streaming program) just stops playing.
I have to unlock the screen and press 'play' again and wait for it to reconnect again...every 5 minutes
I tried the Menu-Options-Blank Screen, but this just caused the same problem - it dropped connection immediately and I have to go through the whole procedure again.
Anyone come across a solution? I can't believe that you have to have the screen back light on all the time and you have to tap the screen every 2 mins to keep it awake - just to listen to the radio!!
Can confirm the problem with Coreplayer, not really a solution but you might wanna try Kinoma player, nice user interface and works in standby as well.
I have both CorePlayer 1.36 and Kinoma Play.
Kinoma Play is now far better. It's fast and the interface is smooth and clever.
It's sad to say but CorePlayer is now old-fashioned and unusable on the HD2.
Do not hesitate

Oh, joy...it's not a cheap day for HD2 apps! I'll give it a go. Cheers.
try press start and key lock and wait for screen auto turn off, that works.
Hello,
I have read some posts about that, but I cannot find them right now...
I have problems sometime when playing music (with headset). As long as the screen is on, no problem. When the phone is in sleep mode (screen off), I have some short break... Or the player just stop. It seems the issues is just like if I remove the headset cable.
I have tried Soft and Hard Reset, I have tried two different Headset, I have tried with TouchFlo player Tab, Windows Media Player and Core Player... Some time it works for one hour with no problem, sometime it just play ugly one song and just stop.
Did any one has the same issue? Find a way to suppress this? Maybe just a registry tweak to disable the "Pause on cable off" ?
I have same issue and make ticket to HTC - but they answer is to perform Soft Reset. They can't reproduce this problem.
I'm having the same problem; short random breaks in the music. Did eith er of you install SRSwow by any chance? I may try uninstalling that and see if the issue continues.
Having exactly the same problem, short breaks in the music, and if i lock the screen, the music stops at the end of the song and doesnt go onto the next track

I don't installed SRSwow. My last try was a Hard-Reset, and just after first start, I played music... And get the problem. My next try will be to use the #### headset I got with my Leo. But I have to go back home for this.
I had the problem using the Leo headset
All of you have a lock screen with "password"? (I have one due to my exchange policies). I tested a trick yesterday: I manually lock the phone before putting it into sleepmode... and no problem (two times).
My problem hasn't re-occurred since i did a soft reset
Maybe the short breaks have something to do with the update function of the music player? Once in a while, don't know when, but definitely when you use the music player the first couple of times, the player does some heavy working in the background. (indicated by the little merry-go-round in the left upper corner).
Anyway the player isn't any good when you have 100+ albums. Browsing through that many albums is a disaster (no scroll bar, no search function). Also the artist are grouped by "performing artist" and not by "album artist", a tear-breaker when you have many compilation albums. Also, and every player for the WM platform (in contrast to the ipod players) have this weird functionality, albums are sorted by album tiltle and not by artist. Who in heavens name knows all his/her album titles by heart? When a album pops in mind you want to play, you think in terms of .... (that wonderfull) album by Fleetwood Mac for example and /not/ in terms of that album, called "Rumours", by ...... (that crazy rockgroup... what's its name).
But that's "appelflap" talking.
I believe this is a very old problem witch occurs on allot of HTC phones.
I've had this problem on one of my 3 previous HTC phones, cant remember witch one, because I bought a decent mp3 player a long time ago
It's a damn shame really that HTC can't fix this thing.
I have this problem too, but also with the audio cable running to my car stereo. As long as the screen is on, there is no problem. If I turn it off, the music starts breaking up once in a while.
use Nitrogen people! been using that on my HD2 and have had zero music playing pauses / breaks / etc, even with screen off, regardless of whether headset is on or not.
Have a similar problem with another winmo phone. The problem was with listening music on microsdhc (i.e. larger than 2gb microsd card) card.
It seems the device just shut down card reader on standby (Screen Off), so when your buffer is empty (end of the song, as a rule) there is no music to play and it just stops.
And no, I dunno the reason for such behavior. And there was no problem with 2gb or less microsd cards.
P.S. I'll test my leo with 16gb card tonight (just bout it), to see, if there a similar problem.
I have the problem problem with my 8Gb card. I could try with the 2Gb too. This should be the reason for the "stop playing at the end of the track".
But for the playing "short break", I have another thinking: Nitrogen don't have the problem. The most important differences between Nitrogen and WMP/TF3D player is the rule that make the music to pause when removing the headset. And this really "sounds" like a problem of headset, as if the phone "loose" the headset connection. Try to remove and quickly re-plug your phone; you'll se the same issue.
Back to my first question: is there a way to disable the pause on unplug head-set? Maybe in the registry?
I still don't have HD2, but I have these problems on X1.
Nitrogen did not help, in fact it can't play some MP3 at all. It either skips it or crashes completely. But otherwise it is the best player I know.
What does work however, is to use Core player and set 'higher priority during music playback'. Also I tried to change priority to higher using task manager for Nitrogen and it seemed to help, but I did not test it that much to be sure.
I sent this to nitrogen bug tracker (suggestion that it should allow higher priority) but after month there is no reaction.
I fixed my issues by just cleaning up my music and making sure I didn't have more than 30 songs per folder(had ~1000 in one and it made the music player lag like crazy).
i've the problem, but only when receiving or doing a call. after that the lags start ... this is annoying -.-
Having issues as well with HTC music player, it stutters, there are sound artifacts where the song skips, and sometimes a song will stop playing after 2 seconds.
This is so annoying im prepared to send it back. I reformated my 8gb class 6 card, but it´s still the same.
Using another player is fine, no issues. This is classical HTC issues, they need to get the crap together and fix issues like this before the release. Had the same issues with my diamond until they fixed it.
hi everybody! I had the same problem but not in the sleep mode. My htc music will have little break when my Opera loading something.
It is had any way to fix it? thank you
In the settings for the display light there is also an option for "turn off my device if inactive in:" - I disabled that option and my music player (Pocket Player) is now running without problems.
I'm finding with the stock music player a weird issue. it starts a new song, will play approx. 1 sec, stop, and start playing the song from where it left off. This happens quite often. Anyone else have the issue ?
