I've seen a fair bit about using third party media players etc to play FLAC music files. I've binned most of my MP3 files and re ripped my entire music collection to flac. This was fine up till about a month ago as i had a nice COWON MP3/flac player that i used when i was out and about, but that got stolen from my van so i'm thinking of using my Touch HD as a media player instead. Thing is i like the MP3 player feature built in to TF3d and am wondering if anyone has been sucsessful at getting it to play flac files?
I have this problem. I installed the 2.1 music player cause I didn't know vibrant's got its own music player. The player I installed have the playlists I synced from pc. The player that comes with the vibrant wont display the playlists. Where does the vibrant's music player store its playlists so I can move my playlists from the root of my phone.

Not sure if its due to your new player or not. I had issues seeing playlists with only the stock player installed. Other music players I have installed since have seen the playlists in all the directories just fine. Maybe the vibrant player doesn't handle the standard playlists. (m3u)
Samsung Vibrant uses a different music player than other 2.1 roms. The one I installed is the one most android phones come with, which display the playlists I put on the phone/memory card. The one that coems with the Vibrant cannot read playlists. One problem with me is when I press the button on the headphones that were provided to skip a song, the vibrant music player would open itself. Therefore I would have 2 music players opened and 2 songs playing.
Has anyone with root removed the Vibrant music player successfully? Or is it too ingrained in the OS?
As the name suggests, I'm having some issues with audio playback on my new Iconia. I transferred all my music from my HTC Evo, to my PC, then to the Iconia using Acer's downloadable drivers. If I open the folder via a market downloaded file explorer...I have no issues. It is when I try to play the files in absolutely anything else that I get errors. Just FYI, the files are a mix of .mp3 and .wma files. Any thoughts?

Edit: I'm using File Explorer HD, and only the .mp3 files are playing within the explorer...the .wma files prompt for an app and fail
you can use windows media player to sync music
As far as I know, the WMA format isn't supported in Honeycomb natively.
I had the same problem but its was with google music. I tried power amp from the market and all my music plays fine now. And all my files are wma.

i ended up doing something similar with MortPlayer--still wish it would've worked with Google Music...I was realling digging the UI of that one. Oh well, at least my music plays now. If anyone ends up with a thought or a workaround for the native Iconia app, keep us posted here. I'd love to see a device where all of the stock software worked as it was intended!

Has anyone tried to sync music to our Acer's using Windows Media Player? If that can be used to send all the music to the device AND be able to use the default app...I'd be in good shape.

Yes. I did mention WMP above.
But I only did sync MP3 files, not WMA files. So I don't know about WMA part. MP3 is recognized and played flawlessly using stock music player.
Another note, if your music info (ID3 Tags) is not in English, make sure you have proper character encoding before syncing. Otherwise, they will be displayed as garbage. I think all ID3 Tags should be converted to UTF8, not sure, just used Foobar2000 to fix all my Japanese-title music.
After exchanging my first Iconia to BB for some other issues, I did as you mentioned with using the tablet as an external mp3 player in WMP and everything worked flawlessly! Thanks I also found a great .apk to be able to mount my NTFS HDDs to the tab without issue. So I'm in great shape now!

I tried an experiment with the music -- after syncing the music to my tablet using WMP, I noticed that it placed all of the files into the music folder within the root sdcard (internal memory) and google music pp worked great. I moved all the files from that folder to a folder created on the external_SD, and the app fails like before. Apparently the Music app that comes with our Iconias cannot see anything outside of its native internal memory

Hi All,
Anyone else having issues with MP3 playback using the defaul music player (and also using the Cubed player? About half of my mp3's on the device stop playing after about 1/2 a second. I initally moved my music library via simply drag and drop into the device storage from my Win7 PC. I then deleted the entire library and tried syncing via WMP. Made no difference. Files play back fine using PowerAmp. I'm really digging the new android Music player though, and would love to get it working properly. Any ideas on what's causing this?
Thanks,
Tony
I have a lot of flac files in my music playlist and I'm wondering if there is anyway to add lyrics to them, so I can see them on my Galaxy S4. It works for mp3 files but not flac. Also, I use the stock music player. Any ideas?
Try with Poweramp, as I know it's working
