SD card fail... storing mp3s and playback - Eee Pad Transformer General

So far loving the hell out of this thing... I take it everywhere with me. (seriously)
So I loaded up my 16GB micro sd card with about 8GB of music. Transformer reads it and adds everything to my library. I set it up to play in shuffle mode first song plays no problem... second song takes about 2 mins to load. 3rd song takes about 4 mins. I go over and skip a track takes 2 seconds to load. Next song again takes 2 mins to load. I give up and use my droid x to play the music.
posting at close to midnight didn't let me search the forum but similar threads there are none...

It Could Be the Class of SD Card. :x Idk but that sucks. I Copied a few gigs of music onto Internal SD and they play fine So it has to be something with Reading from the SD. hmm..

I take it this happens with the stock music player and with the screen off? It's a bug. A number of others myself included have had this happen and resolved it by using a different music player. I use UberMusic from the same Dev as LauncherPro and am happy to say I haven't had a single problem since making the switch.

+1.
Doesn't have too many features yet (still in alpha stage) but it still works very well.

+2, probably caused by Google's music player.

I also found the google music player to be somewhat unresponsive at times when switching tracks. Cant say anything conclusive though, since I didn't use it much. Installed PowerAMP straightaway and never went back (PowerAMP IMO has the best equalizer where the stock player has NONE!! ). Like others have said, it could be an issue with the stock player.

Try putting it in the music folder? Are the songs that do play in the download folder or somewhere else?

Use something other than the stock Samsung music app. I used to have a captivate and that was one of the first major issues with these phones. Trust me. Put the AOSP app for music on there

Hey, when you play audio, does your audio randomly pop or skip? I've tried Winamp, Doubletwist, AOSP Music app, the Samsung Player, and 3 so far and it sounds like my Fascinate is having trouble finding the resources to reliably play audio.
I've had dumbphones that do the same thing, but I didn't expect it from a smartphone, especially from a Samsung device.
I have an iPod Touch that plays everything fine, but I'm guessing this is more in line with what Apple actually designed it for.
Have no problems with music popping or skipping on my Fascinate. Been using either the stock Samsung music app or cubed player.

Can't play music ?

Hello.
I can't seem to multitask why I play music on my aria. When I go on the browser while I play music, the music begins to start chopping and such. Does anyone have the same problem or a solution? Thanks.

It may help others if they knew what you were using to play music with.

the aria doesn't have an amazingly powerful processor; multi tasking works, but sometimes things may suffer.
also, i'm assuming your music is on your sd card? the quality/speed of your sd card could affect this too.
I'm using the stock music player that came with cm 7. I am also using the default SD card that came with my aria

Xperia play music player.

Hey guys
I've an odd thing happening on my xperia play stock music app. It will suddenly stop mid song, thought maybe it was cause it was in my pocket and I knocked a button somehow. But today was happening while sitting face up on my desk.
Has also happened on my desire s, that had a custom rom so put it down to that. Anyone else experienced this?
Cheers

Damaged file perhaps? Have you tried playing the same song through to completion?

It happens to random songs, press play and the song continues. Don't think the songs are damaged. Very odd.

are you running a task killer?
Yes, but it's not automatic. Will remove it and see if it helps.

Nope its still happening, played the same song again and played fine. Very annoying indeed.

Wow, really? I had the same issue on my X10 too with the music player just stopping. Even in the foreground it would happen and I'd just unlock my phone and press play. But I've also had 'Listen' on both phones since day one.
I'll try the PowerAMP route first I guess. If that doesn't work I guess I can go the TB route and backup/uninstall unless there's another app for podcasts that anyone would care to recommend.
I had this happen once after restoring everything from a TB backup. I just uninstalled the music player and reinstalled one from market, i used the winamp one.
Use different player

i didnt like the stock music player, seems like it should of been more convenient , winamp is better and they support changing songs on the lock screen.

Best Music Player

Hello all. I'm looking for your opinions on which music player is the best out there.
While I like the interface of the stock TW music player, there's one thing that bugs the crap out of me. If a band name starts with the word "The", the band falls in the T's. For example, The White Stripes are in the T's not the W's.
So what are your thoughts? I've tries Poweramp and it's decent. But I'm looking to try others.

I use poweramp more than anything, lots of options and good UI , heres the link in play srore https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.maxmpz.audioplayer
Also the full base mod is awesome, here is the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2301190 a great app to use also is faux audio sound

The last two days I've been looking for good music player too.
I had been using n7player because I like the user interface of it. However since I added my external 64gb SD card I have not been able to add music to it from the card. I can play music off of the card using that player but it can't locate it automatically. It can locate music off the internal storage fine.
I tried Power amp and had the same problem. Winamp was able to identify the music fine.
Im assuming its a format issue as I'm using exFAT instead of fat32.
At this point I'll say Winamp but I like n7 player the best

I use tunewiki. Its easier to use and feels more stream lined imo plus it has lyrics which is nice
Of all the players I've tried I still prefer Neutron. Just seems to sound better. Subjectively, of course.
El Mono
MPlayer
I like the stock player on the Samsung Galaxy S4, but Winamp sounds just as good and the pro version comes with EQ. I would suggest just putting the first letter of the song before the word "the". So, instead of "The Black Crows" it would be "BThe Black Crows". This will fix the order of songs, but it does look awkward.
Player pro here. It also plays videos

Thanks for all the replies folks. So far, nothing has topped Poweramp, though PlayerPro is intriguing.
Have you tried Music Player for Pad/Phone?

Stock music player vs Google player

So, like a few days ago i made a comparison between these, and the stock player sounded a lot better than the google one, at max volume ofc, but now i cant see a difference, can anyone confirm if there are any differences?
Im only talking about phone speakers, not earphones or anything
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk
Haven't really compared since I like the HTC app better but I would imagine the stock app would sound better since it's probably tuned for the phones speakers. The Google app is probably just a flat EQ.
I think HTC stock is better cause the shuffle option, it creates a whole new playlist instead of shuffling the musics on its own, doing that sometimes it repeats the same music.
Maybe this is mentioned a hundred times already, but I noticed very early on that flac plays much louder than anything else.
Could it be that different formats threw you off at some point?
Also, folder playback is available on htc player, big advantage for me.

Hmm i tested the same song, and the htc player sounded better, but like i said now i cant see a difference. Ill try a flac file when i get home,
And why this bothers me is because i bought some songs on the play store and yeah...... I also dont like the scrolling sense has, it doesnt bother me in blinkfeed or smth, but it does in the music app.

there is one difference that i noticed
when using headphones, screen turned off
one click on headphones button do pause/play music in both apps
but doubleclick on Google Music switch to next track and on HTC Player calss last dialed number, for me it is a dealbreaker
holding down button seems to generate some kind of error, displays "Initializing" forever
but only on locked screen, on unlocked it launches Google Voice Search propertly

Some of us have more.... er... eclectic tastes in music for Spotify. Not too mention I prefer uncompressed flac over Spotify any day. But hey, not everyone is an audiophile.
Listening to flac on a phone isn't audiophile. It's sounds cool though.

Good point there. But I am willing to bet that true audiophiles don't want to use m8 for listening to music.
But I guess that you already ditched your stock earbuds also. I enjoy using them and more than happy for spotify quality.
But back to topic then

This is the reason I can't use the stock player even if I want to. The lack of "skip track" control with my headphone controls. Shame.
I use Google music all access so I don't have much of a choice. But having pretty much any song I want to listen to ever is worth it
Never used Google player, i am pretty happy with the stock one!
