So I have an application that uses the webkit and I want to make it so that when someone clicks a link that has the file extension mp31 it will play on the music player. How would I do this?
So i've downloaded the nexus q app for ICS and the newest google play music app and I don't see how i can get music to play on the nexus q.. is there something i'm missing??
is that google music manager required?
thanks in advance.
Yes - you need to download Music Manager on your computer and it will start to upload music to Google Music. Once it's uploaded, it'll show in both the web interface at http://music.google.com/ and in the Google Play Music app.

Ok so if I understand correctly, this Google q is playing music stored on Google music that's been uploaded from a pc, not music that is stored on your phone then...?
Btw can u upload music to Google music directly from ur phone?
Thanks again

Works for me in the Netherlands. Can you login to music.google.com ? The block is only for activation, after that everything should be normal.

It says this service is not yet available in your country. Perhaps the torrc file is not editing correctly.. to change my IP to a US IP address..?
Got it working.... the tor program hasn't been working since the latest update. So I used "hide my IP" instead.
I remember reading a article that windows phone 8 has a new api out that for example would let u download a mp3 through the browser and add it to your media library on the device without needing to sync w/ a computer to do this.
has anyone tested this out yet? is it possible?
also if this is possible would i be possible for us to have a winrar/winzip app on wp8 now and download those file types and add the contents to our media library all on the device? or even a file explorer of some sorts since we are now able to send/receive music files from what ive been reading
heres a article on apps adding music/media into the music hub
Windows Phone 8 has new API for loading music from Apps into the Music Hub | WMPoweruser
"Winphoneviet, who leaked the most recent Windows Phone 8 SDK, reports that the SDK has new APIs, including one called SaveSongOperation which allows one to load music into the Xbox Music Library, just like developers can now save pictures to the Picture Hub.
The freedom would for example allow developers to download music from the internet and add it to the music bug, or transfer music via Bluetooth and do the same."
I tried to download an MP3 from sound cloud trought Internet explorer on my lumia and it only streamed the file,it wouldn't let me download it in order to save it

Indeed...
I just did a standard "press and hold" and there was no download option (open in a new tab, copy link, and share link).
That is very disappointing.

I have search the forums and not found what I'm looking for so I will start a thread.
I just used Google play to purchase a album and I selected the download to device option so I wouldn't have to deal with any storage in the cloud. the issue is when I scan folders for new music or using the power amp app, it cannot find this new music. I have used root explorer and can not find the folder Google play placed my purI feel pretty stupid starting a thread for this but any help would be appreciated
Sorry, but when you purchase music from Google Play you have to use their app to play it back, which is Play music. I do not believe there is an option to download your music, because it is a cloud based service. Amazon mp3 is the same thing as google play music, but you have the option to download your music rather than only stream it, which is much better imo.

I was afraid this is what I would find out. I normally purchase my music from Amazon via the download function. Kinda pissed I made the purchase now and can't burn a copy of it for the CD player in the car.
He is correct, can "only" be played via the Google Music app, but there is a work around. Amazon does let you download instantly, but music is 260kbs, Google is 320kbs. You can download your google Music on your pc and manually transfer to your device like any other mp3, or even upload it to amazon and download from there.
Google Music removes the instant dl, but adds full mp3 quality sound.
You then can use any music app.

This is correct... The website allows 2 downloads of each song, presumably so you don't download it to all of your friends computers.
However, you will find the files under /data/data/com.google.android.music/files, but unfortunately the filenames are just numbers, again presumably because they don't want you to copy the songs. It will just be a pain to find which is which.
hi, I'm coming from android and got an issue with the default file manager for wm10. I'm searching for a file manager wich can be quick, easy to use and can create/extract zip files (or better zip and rar). I don't care if is it free or i have to pay but i want a functional app.
for example i loved android's es file explorer and solid explorer. is there something like it for wp10? i don't want an app full of ads if possibile
There's nothing nearly on the same level as Solid Explorer or ES File Explorer.
What's best on W10M really depends on what you need though. Yuki Explorer is a decent one though, and it has a free, full-featured version with no ads. It also has the benefit of SMB share support, and working with Continuum.
I'm looking for a decent file manager wich can manages zips and rars, no matter if is free or not, just i hate ads for now thanks for your suggestion, i'll try it
perhaps you should try total commander.
Metro file manager seems to be the best one I've come across so far. It can handle zips and synchronize with the cloud based file storage like Google Drive, One Drive, etc., hide files, and some more that I'm still not aware of maybe. It can handle ftp transfers like in ES and Solid after you pay for the complete package ($2 or $3, I think), which also takes away the ads. And I just found out that it has tabbed viewing
good advice! that's what i was searching for, even if was a really hard decision with yuki file explorer. Anyway due to interface language i preferred metro. Thanks
Metro File Manager eX is superb for me. With FTP sharing feature I'm rarely plug my phone to computer. Also, it supports samba network drives and have build in picture viewer, video/audio players.
Total Commander, Aerize Explorer (Pro), Pocket File Manager...
I use Total Commander and Metro File Manger. Both apps can read files from Samba shares.
But how can I play MKV/x264 from share? AVI files are working with WM10 standard video Player over Network, MKV not.
Q1: Does anyone have a MKV player which can read from SMB share?
Q2: How can I change default program / file association to open MKV in TC with VLC or Smart Player?
not sure for SMB share, but try CCPlayer for MKV files.
Metro File Manager is one of the (many) things I find superior on WP.
- Access to cloud services
-Great interface
I don't know how (and don't need at this point) to root WP10, but root access is one big drawback compared to Android file managers.
