[Q] Music (MP3) Files Not Playing - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
I transferred all my music on to an microSD card, however half of my songs do not play on the player for some unknown technical reason. I tried using alternative music players, such as Doubletwist and PowerAmp and had the same result. Many of these files are MP3 files and they do not play as they should.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Sound like they were corrupted. Try deleting them (ideally format the card) and re-adding them.
I have 10.4GB of mp3 files on my (crappy)microSD, all play smoothly.

Thanks I tried it, it seems to be working better now. I think the files got corrupted during the transfer.

Click to expand...

"via any media player", even the stock one?
Mixzing shows internal media, and it's one of the best players around.
Maybe a reinstall is in order? I have all my mp3's in a folder named mp3 on my SD card and all my media players see them.
Make sure a file with a .nomedia extension didn't somehow make it into your folder.

I have tried all music players, reinstalled the players. I can't think what else to do. If it matters I am running SkyRaider 1.9.

All music players showing partial playlists.

First post here,
I have an atrix on 1.57 and I have a bunch of music on my SD card.
One playlist has about 1200 songs, and just up until about two days ago it would show up correctly.
Upon loading it in DoubleTwist, it only showed about half of the playlist. I'm having the same problem with MIUI music and pretty much any music player I try.
I tried Scan Media and it didn't work. Tried rebuilding the DT database and that didn't work either. Reboot didn't help.
Upon syncing again using iSyncr, the music apps started to show just a bit more of the playlist (maybe another 100 songs or so). Either way, it's still incomplete.
Help!
if you have a .nomedia file in any of your music directories try remove this
Just checked, I can't seem to find any nomedia files at all. Just seeing m3u's and plb's.

[Q] Play WMA files.

Hey folks,
I just got some music from a classmate and tried to play it on my device. It won't with every music player app I tried. (Apollo, Play Music, winamp and two or three more..)
I guess I have to convert them to mp3, but I wonder what program is the most convenient. I would love to have my Tags (Title, Album etc.) taken over.
What program provides such functionality?
Thanks in advance!

Lyrics in Flac Files

I have a lot of flac files in my music playlist and I'm wondering if there is anyway to add lyrics to them, so I can see them on my Galaxy S4. It works for mp3 files but not flac. Also, I use the stock music player. Any ideas?
Try with Poweramp, as I know it's working

Audio files undetectable

Hi all,
Nexus 4 is running on Lollipop 5.1.1 stock.
For the longest time, audio files are not detected by any of the music players be it Play Music or any third party apps.
Since I have ton of data on my phone I cannot format it either to install a new rom.
Streaming songs over YouTube or music apps works flawlessly just cannot play the MP3 files on my phone.
Any suggestions to rectify it will be highly appreciated.
Thanks

Are the files visible when connected to your computer or through an app such as ES File Explorer?
Yes, they are visible. I can play them individually but a music app doesn't detect them.

I don't have an answer but suggest trying some new app like Rocket player. Library info will be rebuild from scratch so may be that'll solve it

Take this with a grain of salt, but I think you can try wiping data of the "media storage" app in settings and rebooting. This will force the system to rebuild the media database. I remember reading this a few years ago when I had the same issue and this solved it. If there is anyway for you to make a nandroid or something, I would advise it in case it causes Android to stop finding your media all together.
