4.2.1 PA music players crashing - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
Got the latest pa running on my nexus 7 bit whenever I try any music players from the market they all crash immediately after starting. I have tried player pro, n7 music player, poweramp and many others. Winamp seems to be the only one that works as well as Google music app. They suck though. Anyone experiencing the same?
Oh and also running latest Franco kernel on a 32gb UK nexus 7.

Video Playback Issues

Videos played by my nexus have an odd choppy feel. Every five seconds or so, the player pauses for a very noticeable moment, then continues. Is anyone else experiencing this?

No problems regarding smoothness.
The only problem I have is that nothing seems to have audio (using mxPlayer)

Now I seem to have problems with games. Is this a hardware issue or OS related?

No. My nexus runs very well. Are you on 4.1.1

Yes.
Is it a background app causing it? I read about a few phones having this issue in the past.

I'm on 4.1.1, not rooted and I've noticed the same problem. When playing a video or certain games every 5 seconds or so there is a slight pause. I've tried different video players and still the same issue.

Having the same issues but it seems to happen more with games especially tegra 3 games like a riptide. the funny thing is is I swear I remember playing riptide and It had no lag. I can't remember whether it was prior to the 4.11 update.
Same here! I tried watching the Transformer movie we got for free and it kept freezing up! This is irritating, I'm going to try a factory reset. I'm exchanging this thing any way cause the headphone jack is defective.
From my long awaited and totally worth it EVO LTE!
Same issue here after upgrading to 4.1.1. Anyone here having this issue on a custom ROM? If not then I'm flashing a ROM ASAP.

Try other video players (MX Player, BSPlayer)
Was this apparent before 4.1.1? I just got my 7 yesterday and updated right away and do notice the stutter w/ my high profile 720p vids. On my Prime stuttering was fixed with over clocking and running an interactive governer.
Edit: this is for 720p high profile movies stored on the device, happening w/ dice player and MX player. Don't use stock since it doesn't support ac3 audio.
stock n7 with latest ota updates, unlocked and rooted. No problem playing any game and video, either stream from play store (transformer movie) or stream my my home network.

It doesn't matter if it's on the device or not, it happens when I stream the transformer movie and/or any YouTube video. I'm about to return this back to Google if I don't find a solution soon. Going to try a data factory reset and see if that helps.

Yeah looks like its happening for me on YouTube as well.
I just put a video on my device from my PC and it played fine. But if I stream anything it plays like crap
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Did some more testing. Tried the stock player and no stutter but no sound due to no ac3 support. I have another 7 coming in on Monday and will test that one leaving it as is (before 4.1.1 update)
I just got off the phone with Google and they said it's probably a issue with my router streaming media on the device. I'm going to test another WiFi connection sometime soon and see if the issue persist or not.

I'm having problems with this, I can't watch a single video on this device without the lag. I've tried the youtube app, Netflix, dice player and a few other video apps and everyone of those lag.

Just picked up a Nexus 7, what's the best way to stream music from PC?

I was debating nexus 7 or Galaxy tab 2. Pretty sure I've made the right choice. With no SD card I can't store my all of my music. What are some good options. I've used power amp the most on my S2 not much else when it comes to media players.
Thanks

You have to upload all your desktop music to Google's Music cloud first, then you stream it from the cloud. Doesn't sound like exactly what you want.
To stream directly from the PC, Audiogalaxy is what I used before and seemed to work well. I believe WinAmp does this as well.

Full Screen video player on Nexus 7 in tablet mode.

When i use the MX Player on my nexus 7 and watch a video the bar at the bottom disapears and i get use of a full screen when watching films.
Now when i change the DPI settings on my Nexus 7 (to 160) and turn it into tablet mode and then watch a video the bar does not disapear, now is this because MX Player has not updated there software to work on Jelly bean on tablets? will this everwork like it does when the DPI isnt changed? Is there a player that works in full screen mode in tablet mode.
Any advise will be good as the Nexus 7 not in tablet mode is crap.
I don't have an answer unfortunately, as I'm looking for one too, but I'd just like to add that I'm having the same issue with the YouTube app. So it's not just MX Player.

It has to be that you are changing the DPI. I am running Pure AOKP Build 2 with baked in tablet UI. Using MX player and am not experiencing the bar not disappearing. Screen shot is from Hunger Games using MX with Stickmount.

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

No , Best player is MX player

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

Are you talking about google play music, couldnt find anything else in the play store
Thanks for all the replies folks. So far, nothing has topped Poweramp, though PlayerPro is intriguing.
Have you tried Music Player for Pad/Phone?

Poweramp for me.. Im not gonna try any other players since I paid for the full version, I feel it wud b a waste if I switched and ditch poweramp. Besides no player has topped it for me as of now

[Q] Best music player on the Google play store?

I have been using poweramp for over a year now and I've recently noticed that the pitch is lower on poweramp than on other applications such as the youtube app or the google play music player. Has anyone got any substitutes for poweramp?
Try Google music player.
