OTA USB working fine... - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just update Stickmount app...

Yes, me too. Great news. Now I need to find an updated music player that can find the external mount point for the playlist (music folder). Dice (Cubed) player and Google Music don't seem to find the music, but I can read/write to external microsd or thumbdrive. If I click on a song in the external Music folder, it plays, but just stops after the song finishes. Anyone found a player that sees the external music?

Use poweramp great music player

I have my music on my sd card and have no issues. I use Playerpro and have used PowerAmp, I am on a stock rom (BB 351), and my music is in MP3 format.
Are you using the stock music player? What rom are you using? What is the folder structure that you are using? Have you checked for a .nomedia file in your music directory? What format is your music in?
Im using stock 2.2.2 . And my music is in wma format. But it was all available in the music player before the upgrade.

wma is not in the list of audio formats supported by Android natively.
PlayerPro (my current music player) will play wma files when selected from the file manager but does not show them in the music list, either in library or folder view.

Best music player solution for OTG/USB drive?

I have a rooted Nexus 7 which I'd like to use in conjunction with a large external USB drive as a high-capacity music player. The music player provided with Nexus media importer is pretty basic (no playlist/search functionality etc), so I was wondering whether anyone had any good ideas for turning the USB/OTG media player into a more "native" style solution. For example, is it possible to mount the USB drive so that it would be visible to something like Doubletwist?
Your rooted so get stickmount to mount your drives and use poweramp to play your music!

Thanks for that. I just quickly installed Stickmount and it's mounted my USB drive fine, but Google Music and Doubletwist don't see it. Is there a decent music app that can use USB mounts?

Can anyone comment on which of these, if any, are good at handling large music collections? (5,500 albums, >80,000 tracks). I use DoubleTwist for this reason.
For my large music library I use jetaudio and avia. but that's on my Toshiba Thrive. I hook it up to a 250 gigabyte external hard drive. on the next 7 I do not yet have an OTG cable. So I can't say for sure. Hope this helps.
I was able to point PowerAmp to my music on an OTG Usb thumbdrive. It streamed just fine.

Yeah, as long as it can read an OTG pen
I did not find a player that recognizes my USB Drive, but i could open the folder with my music with Astro, then chose to open a file with Folder Player and all files from the folder showed up in the player! So i can play them, but of course Folder Player is very limited (cannot change order of tracks, can only have one folder open at a time...)
EDIT: Winamp is able to find and play the files and playlists on the USB drive!
Hi guys,
I have surfed the web about this matter for a certain time. Finally, i found the following android apps which can detect USB OTG and play music without root well:
- Music Folder Player Free
- Player dreams
- n7player Music Player
- Neutron Music Player
- Folder Player
- MortPlayer Music
You can download them via Play Store. I tested them on my Car Head Unit which has Android 4.0.3 OS firmware. All of them were ok.
Just i don't know why "n7player Music Player" crashes and reports Force Close message when you have so many mp3 files (e.g. more than 2000 music files) on your USB.

Google play music - Music playback error

OK so here is an odd one, got some music on my phone's internal memory. MP3 Format.
When I try and play it through Google music it give me a music playback error on every track.
If I go through file explorer and click on the individual files then choose Google play music from the pop up to actually play the track it works fine???
Anyone else had this issue?

I'm having an issue with music stored on my phone. Play Music will play the first track but has an error when trying to switch to the next song. Streaming music works though.

Play Music using OTG/USB

Hi. I have a separate micro sd with my music on it. When I plugged it into my S7E Nougat via usb connector, my native music player cant see music files. I can only play one music at a time when I go to the usb directory. I found this thread, but i am not sure if this will work on my S7E N. http://https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/rooting-roms/guide-usb-otg-support-media-players-t3343706.
Other options found is to use other music player like Poweramp, etc. but actually, I like it to be played using Samsung Music player.
Kindly help on how will I able to achieve this. TIA
