I'm still using the standard Windows Media Player built-in to WM6.
I just noticed this problem yesterday.
I was going to use my Windows Media Player to play a list of music I have on my memory card. It was only playing 15-sec clips of each song and then moving on to the next song.
After about 12 songs, a message about memory being low popped up but went away before I could read it all.
When I play music using WMP, I watch the program memory go from about 20Mb to 5Mb, then it goes back up when songs are changed.
Any ideas?
Me too
Sometimes, my Mogul starts acting crazy when I try to play music. I have the stock headphones, that came with my Mogul, plugged in. The playback starts jumping, skipping, etc.
This happens with CorePlayer and MediaPlayer
CorePlayer really goes bad and loses all of it's settings. The sound quality also switches to mono and causes OS instability.
I basically have to soft boot and sometimes hard boot.
Is this an a2dp issue? I have bluetooth disabled on my phone as I don't have any BT devices...
It also seems to depend on how the storage card was formatted and the music copied to it. I have 2 cards and either one decides to work differently each time I copy new music to it. I always fully format them to using fat and 32k.
I have searched this forum and found other people with similar issues on the original rom, but nothing recently.
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

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
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.
After the first week I got the problem that while playing a mp3 and the device performance a action (like receiving a message/email or while unlocking for example) the sound stops for a wee second, this is pretty annoying so I decided to do a complete reset but this didn't solve it?
Anybody a idea what the problem could be? it happens as well with hs msd from 8 and 16gb and internal memory?
My Defy has an odd habit that, when it connects to the bluetooth kit in the car, the music player will sometimes start up all on its own and start playing a seemingly random choice of album from the SD card. It doesn't happen every time it connects, and I don't have bluetooth audio enabled in the car which might trigger it.
I can't locate the music player app to see if I can do anything to its autostarts - even when it's actively playing music it doesn't show up in any of the usual task manager apps. That seems very strange.
Does anyone have any idea why it behaves like this, and how I can stop it? I'd rather not waste battery with the phone doing something I don't want it to.
Mines started doing this after upgrading to 2.2
Any ideas?
Hello, wondering if anyone can provide suggestions
Anytime I am streaming music with my Galaxy S4 and the phone is moved, the music skips/stutters or sometimes pauses completely. This seems to happen whether the streaming music is over wifi or mobile data.
Even if i have it in my pocket and im walknig around with headphones trying to hear something it will skip. This is particularly frustrating cuz i cant hear anything when exercising other than music i have downloaded on to the SD card (it works fine with downloaded music0
I have an extra S4 that has a power button broken so any spare parts I may need to replace I may be able to get off the other one.
Does anyone have any suggestions or advice as to what I can do to fix this issue?
