Android and HTC music players

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

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
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.

[Q] Vibrant Music Player Help

Hi, my vibrant is mainly used for an mp3 player...In music player..I keep seeing EVERY mp3 i have on the phone..I have my music/podcast mp3s, plus my ring tones...is there a way to not have my ring tones (located btw in their OWN directory on the phone [under "[rings] ] keep showing up in my music player??..also I have a lot of podcasts loaded..(again as for everything in their own dedicated directory on the phone (under media/audio)...to be exact...podcasts are under T-Man... (these files have no ID3 tags, so they show up as UNKNOWN...fine...but why can't I change this directory's name and add a thumbnail pic? next I have mixshow mp3's by diff dj's...all in their respective folders.. as an example..1 dj's mp3's I added album art through winamp and saved the id3, copied to phone....nothing...still shows a stock music player img...what am I doing wrong? help me out please ...
PS. Tried Player Pro, which somehow added thumbs to some of my podcasts/mixshows..which had nothing to do with the content...deleted the app, thumbs remained...

Find the folder that's giving you the mp3 and add a dot a the begining, example .test that way the music player won't look in the there to get music

in each folder that is showing up in your music folder add a file .nomedia ...the music player will not scan that folder for music
as far as album art try a app called album art grabber...it's free in the market

[Q] Unknown Artist, HELP!

This unknown artist everywhere is BS. The darn artist is listed everywhere in the tags. The artist will show correctly on about 2-3 songs out of an album. Crazy!
Does anyone have any ideas what I can look at or fix?
I tried to unsync, I manually removed the music from my SDCard and removed the wmpinfo.xml file. I can edit tags on the device and still will not show correctly.
I have searched the forums and tried the various options and still coming up blank. I use Windows Media Play to rip my music at 192 kbps mp3. I have tried using WMP to sync and also tried just dragging and dropping.
I put my music on the sdcard in a music folder by artist - album - songs
Does anyone have any ideas what I can look at or fix? Really appreciate it.
Thanks

Looks like PowerAmp maybe the solution.

Music player and lyrics

hello guys
I've had this phone for a month now but I' can't seem to make the music player display the lyrics.
I've checked and it seems that every track has the lyrics in the proper mp3 tag field, but I get no lyrics yet.
any suggestion would be great, I'm lost. Thanks.

I tried to do that too, and never got the lyrics working.

[?] Lyrics for LG Stock Music

Hey, anyone know how to enable lyrics with the stock lg music app?
I've tried edited songs with Automatag and put a .lrc file in the song folder.
Cheers
Emil

Just tap on the album art, it will show the lyric stored on the file.
*edit: whoops I just realized that my stock LG player couldn't show lyrics of my music too, even though other players such as neutron can.
