Widget please for the new music player in 2.2

I love the new music player and its features but for the life of me I don't understand why a widget was not included with this player.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

I guess because the widget was for the android 2.1 player not the samsung player that comes with 2.2. Not to mention that would make it redundant having the controls in the notification bar after you start the app and a widget. What the should do on the other hand is give you the option to always have the controls shown in the notification bar. I also would have preferred a auto-rotation toggle over volume toggle... Because the volume buttons did a good job of that on their own, but now the simple task has become more complex and redundant...

may be bcos its not final yet??

Cough up $5.00 for PowerAmp and leave all default players as an afterthought.
Seriously, PowerAmp should be default. It's just that damn good.

Download Pure Music Widget from the market. Its a dollar, runs flawlessly, has like half a dozen widgets you can choose from and is awesome. Also works with almost every stock player on any device. Was actually my first purchase on Android.

Just get MusicMod. Free... Awesome...

Winamp has been working out for me. 2 widgets to choose from and lockscreen controls. Oh, its free too.

I second the need for a default widget, its crazy. The samsung music player is really nice, I rather use it than another one. I like the idea of always being able to keep the controls in the notification bar as an alternative to a widget though.

I got player pro but I'm really loving the look of the new player so yes a widget would be great.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

I agree, the new stock player is nice. It is however lacking 2 important features for me though, the widget and headset controls. If they updated it to include those features, I'd drop winamp in a heartbeat. But until then...

I agree 100%. I bought it and love it!

Doubletwist for me. Lockscreen controls, nice simple widget. Player is free and I got the wireless sync with doubletwist desktop for $0.99. I found the sync works better than the Winamp one for me.

The features in poweramp are nice as is the ui, but the sound quality of the oem samsung player cannot be matched.

+1 on the pure music widget

Exactly.. I hav always used "Mixzing" since the 'Moment' 1st came out & I went to Android.. but for the 1st time, the stock player really has my grasp.. I'm a Producer/mix engineer so I know what i hear as far as music goes (not sayin no one else does as well) but the look, function & the 5.1 thing did itfor me.. 5.1 feature is 2nd to none with any of the players mentioned period...

WP7 music player (Beta 2)

You will not be disappointed. Probably the best music player UI ever (at least the alpha versions were. Waiting for wp7 for the beta)

Technically this is released. Putting it in the market would cause some issues for the dev. I'd assume

But it is named Alpha2, so I assume that there will be a beta version (at least)...

Downloaded it. Love it. Any place to submit bugs/feature requests for development?

There is actually an updated version of this out called Alpha 3. You can find it on Fede's twitter page.
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App

Alpha 3 is much improved. Volume buttons seek working, and playback stops when you remove headphones now. Also no more lag in volume switching and seem like the album art has improved as well.

Wow, really nice music player. Deleting mixzing player as we speak.

Beta 4...amoungst other things, it now has a widget

alpha 4 is a big step from alpha 2. all the fc's i had encountered before are no longer, and you can actually read the now playing in the drop down notification.
really liking this. uninstalling doubletwist and hopefully wont be reinstalling again.
alpha 4 says it will expire june 15th. excited to see a final release around then for the market.

Alpha 5 is up:

The next thing Fede needs to add is a custom equalizer. Until then I have to stick with PowerAmp.
Aria CM 7.0.3 with XDA Premium App

very quick and smooth. noticed today (while still on alpha 4) the battery is used much less than earlier versions as well. listened to music for over two hours and it barely put a dent in the battery.

Cm7 has a built in equalizer. Plus there are a couple free ones in the market.

Awesome. Hopefully Google will release the Music API's soon, and we can get some integration with the Music beta going.

Tried it for over 2 weeks. The UI is great, but it still hasn't torn me from PowrrAmp paid. My personal opinion though.
Aria CM 7.0.3 with XDA Premium App

The only thing it really needs as of beta 5 is a scroll tab. It takes too long to have to scroll down through the entire track list. Well that and a search feature would be nice.

This is awesome, thanks for the find. I use this one. I like it because it finds the picture of the artist by it self. It's really cool! Thanks!

MIUI vs TW vs Others music player

Just wanted some opinion on which music player you use and why?
I like TW:
Equalizer
Quick controls in 'lock screen'
Sounds better in Bluetooth
Colorful

I use PowerAmp, and i like a lot. It have lots of features and sounds awesome. PowerAmp + Voodoo sound = Epic Music Playback. I did have to tweak power amp a little to achieve musical orgasm, but, im a musician, so it wasn't a tough task.

i was using winamp because it's easy and has wireless sync (and i use winamp in windows), but am now uploading all of my songs to google music beta. i plan on still using winamp for listening to music thats on my phone, but the gmb app for when i want to stream.
also, winamp has the lock screen controls, but i turned them off because cm7 has lock screen control built in regardless of what music player you use.

TW too, we have the same reasons.

Fedes music player clone of wp7

i like touchwiz...
i also like miui coz it has a widget, and you can limit the size of file/songs that will be in the music app....
on touchwiz , my downloaded ringtones plays too which is ughh LOL.. and if i put the nomedia thing on the file , then the ringtones wont be selectable on sound settings..
but i like how touchwiz has a volume slider while the miui one doesn't...so i pick touchwiz, just downloaded galaxy s music widget app.. hehe

I like the TW music app.
I think I should try Poweramp and see how it sounds.

PowerAmp. Especially because it has awesome lockscreen controls.

PowerAmp!!
Good lockscreen controls are paramount for me since I ride a motorcycle. And between all the players with lockscreens PowerAmp has the most guts when you open it up and play with it.

Wow lots of Music Player that I didn't know about
As for PowerAmps, I've try it before but it was using too much CPU resource. Has that been fix or resolved?

PowerAmp and playerpro are pretty much the same in features, I always preferred playerpro's interface. UberMusic has a fantastic UI, it's made by the launcherpro dev.
If you haven't tried miui I encourage you to do so; it's my personal favorite rom and has the best music player IMO.

I like doubletwist. It looks nice and has alot of nice features like wifi streaming. Also it has its own app for the computer which is almost like a water downed iTunes for android

Rockbox in my opinion, have been using it on my iaudio and apple MP3 for years and now on android. It supports nearly all audio formats, provides lots of features. One drawback for the android port is that the default UI is not very good looking, but it is highly customizable and you can change it to anything if you are willing to invest some time.

I have try the mortplayer,that's so easy to use,and friendly with the folder scan,before i use that,i really love google music player,but i confused after i download some music,and i try to move to other folder,the google music can play the track,does anyone have got this problem
