How do I stop this "function"? Now I'm getting a billion (<---exaggeration) sound effects being scanned and put into my music library.

How do I get it so it only searches one folder for MP3s? I have my ringtones on the root of the storage card and then i have all my music in different folders in my /storage card/music folder. Audio manager picks up both and having ringtones play during shuffle really sucks. Any workaround?
Hi
Could anyone tell me how I get the music part of touchflo to read mp3 files on my storage card
I deleted the stock 2 music files from my documents/music folder and now it just tells me there are no files found !
Thanks
I'm not sure exactly why the music player is not seeing your music files, but I can pass on some useful tips that I have discovered. Please excuse me if these have been covered elsewhere, or if some of them seem terribly obvious to experienced users :
(1) Put all the tracks from a particular album inside their own folder, and save each such album folder in a "My Music" folder on the SD card. This keeps things nice and organised.
(2) Try to ensure that each track MP3 file has got the various "meta tags" set properly to describe the track number, artist, album etc because the music player uses those for sorting and filing the tracks. There is a handy program called Tag&Rename that is very helpful to edit these tags.
(3) If you place a JPG image called "Folder.jpg" inside each album folder, the music player will make a copy called "hTC_AM_AlbumArt.jpg" which it displays when you play back that track or when chosing albums. Once the music player has made this file, you can delete "Folder.jpg" to save space.
(4) The music player may take several minutes to index all the music if you have many files. Be patient! Until it has indexed fully, some tracks may not appear in the music library at all, or appear with music note images instead of the proper album image.
(5) If the indexing seems to have any problems, switch off the HD with a long press of the power button or do a soft reset. This seems to force it to re-index all the music.
(6) I had a problem when I first copied all my music to the device. It made an error message afte a while. I tracked this down to one particular music track; I don't know why, but suspect that there may have been something odd in the meta tags.
Hope this helps !

the best way, i think is sync the music files with wmp in your pc
hello everyone,
i searched everywhere and the only thing i found was how to refresh the music library in TF3D by deleting the files in application data folder..
BUT my Question is how can i choose a specific folder for the music player in the TF3D Music Tab?!
because i have a lot of ringtones and audio records files on my storage card and i want the music tab to only show the files in my /storage card/my music folder..not the whole storage card
Please help as this is really driving me crazy

make a folder on the sd card name My Music, that should work
Not possible Unless someone finds a way to edit it in the manila files. It just searches the storage card for all media. So my suggestion to you would be to have all the other audio on your internal storage or use another player. I don't even use the TF3D player. I used to think it was all awesome, but screw it, S2P and CorePlayer ftw! WMP is good, no doubt. If you want a really good player, buy Conduits Pocket Player

actually that's what i did ..but still ..didn't work
Any work around to this issue?
Yeah does anyone know?
It's picking up the mp3 from my Nimbuzz folder and other program folders, i have a Music folder but it picks everything.
Hey guys, I was wondering if there is anyway of setting only a particular folder to play music from on the storage card. The Sense music player is picking up every audio format e.g. ringtones and playing them???
all i did was create a folder on my mem card called music and my ringtones are on phone mem and music tab didnt find them
Thanks. I thought this was the case, but I have a lot of mp3 ringtones assigned to contacts and moving them all over to the phone memory just wouldn't be viable.
thare are serval discusions on that, around here. actually there is no way from stoping the music tab to play all sondfiles it find on the storage card (or at least only play a single folder). there are serval registry key and stuff but it looks that the music tab is ignoring them and do what it like to do.
mad
you could trim your ring tones or lower the quality of the file depending how many you have and if you can be bothered or just create a playlist and exclude the ringtones that prob the quickest option
Use a file explorer to make all the folders you don't want the Music Player to see, hidden. The phone will still see all of the ringtones etc... but they won't show up in the Media Player. It worked for me.....
sorry for bumping an old thread, I put songs into my SD card in the Music tab, I find WAZE nav sounds ( in mp3), what should I do so the Nav mp3's are not shown in the Music tab?
where in the sdcard can I put the music I have in my pc so it shows correctly in the player in the phone?
Create a folder named music.
Actually, music can be wherever you want it to be, in whatever folder you want. There's a media scanner process that runs every so often that scans your SD card and finds music files wherever they may be. Typically the stock media player can see all media files found by the scanner, but if you're using a third-party player, it might only look certain places for the files.
Off the top of my head, Meridian lets you choose which folders it will look in for media files, whereas doubleTwist appears to be hard-set to only look in certain locations for media files, such as Music and Videos (it seems to ignore any audio files I have in my notifications and alarms folders).
If in doubt, then yeah, just put your music files in a folder called Music.
