Well, it's all in the title :
With every MIUI ROM, the stock MIUI Music Player doesn't detect my music. It's all empty and I can't set my files from the SD Card.
It's not .nomedia related, there are none. If I install another player, same issue. The File Explorer doesn't see the mp3 files but sees the SD card fine.
BUT if I flash any other CM7/Sense roms : no problem.
Any idea ?
EDIT : I tried "Rescan Media ROOT", nothing...
EDIT2 : I did manage to find some .nomedia files on my sdcard but nothing near my Music folder. After erasing them and rescanning, PlayerPro and the File Explorer can see the files. Still nothing in the stock music player.
Any idea PLEASE ?
Hi there,
did you find a solution meanwhile?
Cheers

my windows media player won't add files from my memory card. when I try searching for files it finds a very large number of files but when it starts adding them it hangs then gives up. I prefer using the windows media player since I can use it with the htc home plug in as well as the ability to still listen while in standby mode.
any suggestions?
This is a common problem, find the folder MSMETADATA on your SDCARD and delete it then media player should rebuild the library correctly.
^cool, thanks that worked!

Can anyone advise what to do, I can't access mp3's on storage card from library mode of default media player of wm6. Or which other player can I use? & where can I get?
If your problem is that media player stop working when you try to refresh the library then the problem has been talked around a lot, the solution is to delete a folder on storage named MSMETADATA and try again updating the library...
nice
this worked like a charm!, just curious why this ends up happening??. any suggestion to avoid this again would be greatly appreciated
Still not working

Hi guys,
I have this problem from the beginning when I flashed my HD2 from normal stock WM 6.1 to Android on SD-card. I never could play the music through my music player . Recently I flashed my HD2 to Android NAND so i thought maybe this wil help. But still not, I see my .MP3 files on my SD-Card with ES File Explorer. Is i click on the file it plays in musicplayer but it doesnt save the track. So i have to click every song each time and when the song is done i have to click on a new one.. Maybe there is a solution for this.
Thanks guys if you want to help me.

Hi Slagers,
I'm currently using the Winamp app from Market. When started, it searches automatically for new music on my SD card. Got all mp3's in the following folder: [SD-Root]\media\Music. Don't know if this is mandatory, but works fine for me.

I haven't had that problem. I just store all of my mp3s in a folder I named MP3 on the root of my SD card.
You could try unmounting then remounting your SD card or changing the location of the folder that contains your music files on the SD card.
I really don't know why you are having this issue.
Desperate
Thanks for a quick reply, but neither of your idea's helped. Im realy confused that im the only person with this problem
I shall explain my problem in good details this time.
I bought my HD2 from a guy, i had a little bit of knowledge about Android so I installed android on my phone. Next thing i wanted music on my phone and put like 10 MP3 files on my SD-card. I resetted my phone like a hunderd times but my music player can't find the files. When i search with a File Explorer i see the MP3 files and i can play them. They will open in music player but they see only one song. So that doesnt work. I hope there is some1 with the same problem and has found the solution
P.S.
I put the music files also on my phone card. Didnt helped either.
Thanks
This is a longshot...
I know you say you are using MP3s but are they really MP3s? It might be worth using a media converter and trying to convert one of them to make sure that they really are the right format and right compression etc (e.g. not .flac or .ogg or .mkv etc).
Try downloading any MP3 from your phone browser, reboot the phone and see if it shows up in your music player.
I've had the same problem as you this evening
It seems that Android is caching your music library *anywhere* But if you're using Clockwork Mod, you can boot into Recovery menu and wipe your cache partition. This includes the cache of the music library.
I would recommend doing a backup before, because I'm not sure of any side effects, when clearing the cache partition..
Regards
Its working
Thanks alot guys, its working now! Wooot im happy
I am facing same problem
HI I am very new to andorid.
and very much enjoying it. except the issue that My Songs are found when in Music player.
If I run them manually through music player. they work correctly.
Can you tell me what did u do exactly, to get it resolved?
I am a newbie so please bare with me and provide step by step instructions.
THanks in advance.
i would recomend you to reformat your sd card and see...first make a copy of your contents on your desktop them format your sd card FAT32-64KB
then copy it back
then rename you mp3 folder to music
Hey guys,
I just bought a new Galaxy S4 I9500 [Baseband Version - I9500JKUAMD9 Build Number - JDQ39.I9500XXUAMDE] + SanDisk 64gb microSD card.
I have a really strange issue with my music files, they are not recognized by the stock music player or any other player except VLC.
The mp3 files are on my external memory, folder 'music'.
The strange thing is that the players recognize only 10 out of 1700 songs, BUT when I'm browsing with ES browser to the mp3 files and renaming them, the music players recognize the renamed mp3s.
I've tried transferring the files by just copying them to the sd card and by using Kies, the same problem.
Can anyone tell me why do the music player recognize the songs only after renaming them?
Sounds more like a problem with the naming of the songs. Do a batch rename maybe.

I'm not sure but deleting them all and copying again might help. also you can try an app named "scan media" for recognizing media files.

I'm having the same issue.
EDIT: I found a fix! Go to root of ext card. Make folder named Media. Drop your music and picture folders in that folder. Should now be seen in the players.

Hi all,
Not sure am I only one have this problem. Let say I have mp3 songs with image tag of the singers. Everything look fine on my PC, then I copy over to the Note 3 SD card.
Using my note 3 in music player or file folder, some of the image tag is incorrect, for example Will Smith photo appear in many of the chinese song or song which is not belong to him.
I copy the same file back to my PC, the image tag is correct.
I try delete the ones on the sd card and copy again from my pc, still the same probvlem.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Hope I can find some answers here
I have tried all the advice given in Hardwarezone but still unable to solve it
