[Q] Disappointed with music and video playback, any workaround? - Eee Pad Transformer General

Any eeepad user here notice, whenever I listen to music with my eeepad connected to the keyboard dock, if I close the lid it won't continue play the next song in the album.....
Sometimes even not connected to the keyboard dock, after it played 3-4 songs in the album it stopped, it only resume playing once I click the on/off button.
I also loaded 100+ music videos in the tablet, how do I create video playlist for it? In iPad I can sort those videos as music video in iTunes.
I created a m3u playlist for video and open with moboplayer, it doesn't play the next video in the playlist too.
iPad probably a better media player I guess....

try another music player. I really liked winamp before I started streaming everything via subsonic. I know winamp lets you sync via wifi

Open Moboplayer -> settings -> Play next automatic.
the iPad isn't better, it just assume that people are idiots and turn on all the options by default
And for the closed dock problem, I think that going into settings -> display and turning down the dock energy save profile will solve it

yep..try turn off the dock energy save feature and then redock/reboot
both winamp and ubermusic (from the deveoper of launcher pro, http://www.ubermusic.com/ ,in beta but fully working) are better choices than the stock one..

So I unticked the MobileDock battery saving mode, now it plays the next song just that it wont repeat the album after the last song.
Moboplayer: play next song already ticked but still after it finish the video it bounce back to the playlist.
Also how to make it default hardware encoding? I copy all my music videos from ipad, some are from youtube 720p mp4. If soft encode it will lag. In the moboplayer settings, If I untick default soft encode, when I click the video it lags, if I hold the video it only let me select soft-encode.
If I tick default soft encode, then it let me select hard-encoding when I hold the video.

Yeah it probably is.

I suppose you need to turn on a 'repeat' option or whatever sounds close to that.. if that doesn't work..try a different music player...

in moboplayer, just 'click the video' means the opposite of 'hold the video and select an option'....hard-encode or soft-encode..
you can also use the stock player for hardware encoding playback..

My moboplayer doesn;'t do that, probably I should try reinstalling.
I must tick default sodft-coding then hold the video and select hard coding.
If I untick default soft-coding, I click the video and it lags, if I hold the video then only got option for soft-coding.
More importantly still couldn't create playlist for my videos.

Setting Playlist in Touchflo Music player

How do I go about setting the playlist to use in the Touchflo music player?
I've been googling for ages, but havent found any useful info.
Am I the only one that thinks the music player is a tad half assed?
Thanks
To your question, for me theres only one solution. That was to get Coreplayer. Much better application to manage and listen to music aswell as videos.
I hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply.
I have Coreplayer, but I prefer the convenience of the Touchflo player.
Anyways, figured out what I need to do.
- Open the Media player, and select Library
- Select on the drop down library option (top left) and ensure storage card is selected.
- Select Menu => Update Library
Once its finished, click Done.
- Select My Music => Album => All Songs by Album.
- Select Menu => Queue Up
- Select Ok and close the Media Player
Everything should now be listed in the Touchflo Library

[Q]UK 6941 - Can't play WMA

Anyone else found they can't play WMA encoded files after update? Tried MixZing and stock player, both can't find them. If I browse to the dir in Astro, it says "File type wma not found."
Any fix?
rockplayer! its better than sex with a midget. guaranteed!
OK thanks it looks like RockPlayer works -- if I unselect "show media file only" in the menu.
Erm... why do we love RockPlayer so? No playlists? No library to play all by artist, etc? No widget? What's the big deal?

Could not have put it better myself lol
1. OP complains that the stock and after market music players do not play WMA music files.
2. Somebody suggests RockPlayer which indeed does play WMA files.
3. OP notes that as a music player Rock leaves a lot to be desired.
4. Everybody agrees that Rock is NOT a great music player, but nobody should be critical of that because it's NOT a music player it's really for videos.
5. OP still has problem, no music player will play his WMA files, but now he knows that Rock can do this, but is a ****ty music player.
6. So OP problem remains. Sigh...
LOL nice summary!
Well I've decided I'm going to roll back to 1.6 for the moment (once I've managed to restore my Streak - it's not booting at the moment). There's a lot I miss from 1.6 - Dell's FB and Twitter widgets, the keyboard, restricted apps in the market, the browser tab toggler, etc. 2.1 is pretty, the dialer is great, 720p video recording is great, etc., but these don't compensate for the other missing features.

changing default music player for bluetooth

i need a bit of help. i'm using bluetooth linking to my car and everytime it queues the phone for music when the link is established then the phone will pull the default music player. i want to change it so that i can have winamp start instead of the default player. its getting rather annoying..
Try going to settings/applications/manage applications/all tab scroll to media room select it then hit clear defaults. Media room is heavily incorporated into the Sense framework so it might be greyed out and not fix your issue but it's worth a try.

keyboard playback controls mapped to Doubletwist?

so I've used doubletwist (and airsync) on my phone for a long time, so I downloaded it for the transformer. It makes it so convenient to be able to sync all my music over wirelessly...
But anyway, I don't use it for actual music playback because I like the honeycomb player.
But now, for whatever reason, if i try to use the play or skip buttons on the keyboard, they open up the doubletwist player and start controlling that insted of the honeycomb one... Anyone know why or how to fix something like that?
thanks
*ahem... *
I'd guess the default music app is set to doubletwist. find app in settings and then clear application defaults. next time android asks how to handle music select the default app

I just tried this on my N7. I started Google Play Music playing local mp3's stored on the N7. I was able to then switch to the open tasks and choose one and the music kept playing. I was also able to touch the Home button and went to the home screen with the music still playing. I could start any other apps and the music still played. Not sure what is happening with yours. Are you sure you weren't streaming over wi-fi? I'm stock rom, rooted.
