i've tested Omega v27.1 and it's good,but i discovered today that my music with file extension "m4a" DOESN'T show up in Stock Music player,i tried syncing and rebooting my S3 But those files still don't show up,any solutions would be very appreciated.
Uhm yeah, it won't ever read them. Get Poweramp, reads all my Apple Lossless m4a files!

i just attached some pictures to my mp3s but they don't appear to be showing while playing mp3s, plus some songs are even being picked up, yet they are on the memory card??
i used the program Mp3tag on my desktop, and copied the mp3s across using explorer.

sorted, just used windows media player and it sync'd that way.
I am sorry if this was mentioned before, I did search but found too many misleading threads.
I have an 8gb class 6 microsd, I created a music folder and loaded a few mp3s to test out on Meridian Player and MixZing. Both media players did not find any of my music, and I could not find the files I just added using the File Manager.
I'm confused, as when I connect to my PC via USB, I see the files. But they don't appear on the device?

Hmm haven't tried Froyo or Meridian/MixZing (actually I may have lol). I've got Eclaire and have used the default and 3 (cubed) music players. So far I've had no problems.
I've got Eclaire in the root of my sdcard and my music in:
***root sdcard***\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\
Where did you create your music folder?
Does doing something similar for Froyo work?- say:
Froyo in: ***root sdcard***\Android
Music in: ***root sdcard***\Android\Music

I've tried to create them in the root and in Android\music. It just seems to have a very difficult time recognizing any files I put on the SDcard.

Seems like a Froyo Stock Music App bug as I have the same problem on Stock Builds. Sense builds and the HTC Music App does not have this problem so it has something to do with the way Froyo indexes music files.
I have tried sdrescan, scanmedia (both free apps in the market) and it won't detect all the music in stock Froyo builds.
You could try MortPlayer, as it indexes all your folders when it starts... haven't had luck with it though as it keeps FC'ing on me
I was able to transfer 3 songs over and have it opened through my File Manager app. It took over 6 tries for the SD card to actually read the files. When I would add files, File Manager would show them as 0 KB. I got lucky with these 3 mp3s but haven't been able to consistently add songs.

Hmmm, so other music players use Froyo's indexing service while HTC player and MortPlayer don't?

Yes. That's what its looking like. no amount of sdrescan's will reveal all my music files, unfortunately.
For those of you who don't have this problem, where do you store your Music Files?

Idd, so either use mp3's with proper tags, or use these players.
Or use "Music Player" from Social Soft, it can tag/id mp3's.
im having a similar problem, i have over 300 songs but i can only find 20 in the music player but on sense builds (2.1+2.2) it finds all of my music
Tagging isn't the problem... Froyo seems to have a bug re: indexing music... no amot of scan or rescan will reveal ALL the music in the Music App or any app that relies on the Music App's indexing (doubletwist, tunewiki, mixzing, etc....)
Sense music player uses its own indexing since in Sense builds the Stock Music App is usually not included.
MortPlayer would have done the job since it indexes per folder but it keeps on crashing on my install. (shubcraft v1.1)
i have the htc hd2 tmob version, runnin █ ELEGANCIA ROM Series™ █ ◄●|17 Aug.|V2 Final|6.5.5|6.5|●► █ [CHT]●[GTX]●[MaxSense], E-GTX ROM, with the dal131 (spell check) android 2.2 froyo. now when i boot into android, whether it be using haret or the dual boot, not all of my music files are recognized in the music player. now when i use the linda file explorer it shows my music in the MP3 folder and they are all in a compatible format (unless the nexus uses a diff format than the g1 and cliq use)
any ideas on why only 100 out of the 700+ music files are showing in the music player?
Also i have looked under, recently installed playlist, all songs, all artists, etc etc, and it doesnt show all the songs but it does when i boot in windows mobile
should i move the files out of the android folder and place them in the root [of the SD card]?
I'm no dev, nor am i even very knowledgeable with the programming side of the android universe.
I think it is probably because you are running android off the sd card right now. I think all your music will show up fine when a full nand version of android is released. Although, what do I know, I'm no dev.
For the heck of it go get "NSW Player" from the market and try it. Report back and let me know if that player works better.
Good luck.
hmmmz never thought of that, yea could be becuz im runnin it off the SD card, ill check if it does happen with that player or any other installed player
i just also thought i'd delete the mp3 player and let the system create its own (if it even will)
if you uninstall the stock mp3 player i don't think the system will reinstall one.

nah i meant uninstall the mp3 folder but with using the nswplayer and mixzing player they still read the same. ill fiddle around and see if it could be a file extension issue or something
I've got the same problem, I'm wondering if music files need to be in the 100MEDIA file, anyone tried this?

i just deleted the MP3 file created another 1 and now it loads all the songs *fistpump*
im not sure this is the correct thread but im running into an annoyance.
im using an HD2 with the Energy Android rom.
playing mp3s with the Android and HTC music players has 2 problems..
1. it plays every file on the phone, even ringtones.
2. it messes up the album artwork and every song gets the same art. even tho most of the songs i have on my phone have embedded artwork.
any ideas how to fix this?
i would love to be able to flip to the music player widget and play my mp3s.
im havn almost the same problem i just want to hear only my mp3's not all my audio files any hav any ideas the ones i found on google didnt help i also tried to search it and got nothing please help us figure out how to play only music with the htc music player and not all audio files
Try inserting an empty file with filename '.nomedia' in the folders where your ringtones (or any other audio you don't want) are, they should be excluded from the music player.
Dunno about the artwork though

How do I create a file with no name? .nomedia appears as just an extention to windows.
I use the cubed (3) music player as my default music file player. It works well although it is buggy in 1.5 on my Backflip.
This seems to be an issue of Sense music player period as you notice the Windows version does that too. I use Mixzing from the market that gives you the option of what folder to scan for music, as for the .nomedia file I would assume start with a blank text file and change the extension to .nomedia?
Use Gallery Enabler from Marketplace
In the Sense builds such as MattC's does anyone know how to replace or remove the HTC player with the Android one.
The Android one I used in Darkstone builds (I believe) supported landscape mode switching of albums with cover-art and also finger gestures to move tracks.... this was really useful in the car.
I second the Mixzing player, I'm using the free version and it works better than any winmo player I could find. All you problems go away.
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?
Chlballi
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!
Chlballi
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!
Chlballi
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
