Songs not showing up in LG's default music player - LG V20 Questions & Answers

Hi I have an H990DS running Super Rom V20 V4.1 and before all my songs on my SD card would automatically be detected by the default music player but now it won't. It's weird considering that if you tap the three - icon on the top right then go to Folders it would say that its detected some songs within the correct folders it used to have but when you open the folder (still on the music player) it will say No music.
The songs are definitely being read by the device as the File Manager is able to play them, just not the default player. Anyone know what could be wrong?
EDIT: I was able to fix this by simply using File Manager to move all my files to another folder. No idea what happened honestly. I just hope my SD Card isn't dying because it's a 200GB one that I got for free when I bought my LG V10.

TF3D Music player can't find music on storage card

I have a new TMO TP2, and am somewhat puzzled as to why the TF3D music player can't find the music that I've synced onto my storage card. Windows Media player sees the music just fine, but the TF3D one can't (it only sees the songs in the main storage).
The music is in a "Music" folder on the storage card, as it is in the main storage.
Any ideas?
Tried restarting TF3D or soft reset? After modifying some files by connecting the device to my PC as storage drive, the music player wouldn't recognize my files stored on storage card.

Sorry, I should have mentioned that I had done both a restart of TF3D and a soft reset with no success.
Not sure how many songs you added to your storage card, but mine (~120 files) took several minutes before they showed up on the TP2. I believe I had gone to Library -> "All Songs tab" and then let it refresh/populate.

I did upload a significant number of songs (100+), but had my phone on for a long time (while I continue to tweak it!) and nothing has changed. I don't see any options under "Library" or anywhere else to refresh. Windows Media Player has such a feature (which I tried), but the TF3D player doesn't see anything.
I also tried to manually copy over a artist folder from the storage card onto the main storage (alongside the songs already there). Again, the TF3D doesn't recognize it.

There isn't a refresh button as such, but I recall bouncing between the different sub-tabs after clicking "Library" and it said something to the effect of "searching".
How about try moving everything from the phone's "MUSIC" folder to the storage card "MUSIC" folder (i.e. phone's "MUSIC" folder completely empty) and let it 're-search' on its own...
i have the same issues! i recently purchased an formated (FAT32) 8GB sd card, and synced my music from windows media player 11 through active sync. the music is on the card fine and i can play the music through windows media player, BUT not on the touch flo music player.
why is this happening?
i have a the files in a "MUSIC" file on the storage card same as the person who posted this issue.
When I first added my music to the Storage Card nothing showed up in TF3D either. I then deleted the music in the Music folder on my main storage and when I when to touch flo Audio tab it said searching. I opened up library and when I clicked all songs they started to appear. You might try that.
hi all, try my solution.. after moving mp3 to device / delete
then
You need to rename the follow file to "AudioManager_Eng.vol.vol"
Device/Application Data/HTC/AudioManager_Eng/AudioManager_Eng.vol
Soft Reset . . . . New AudioManager_Eng.vol will be created.
Had the same exact problem.
Although in the beginning, it did work. Would find all music on storage card and device, in numerous folders.
Then after deleting some of the music and maybe a file or 2 in one of the music folders, and doing lots of copy/pasting of music from pc to card and card to device,then changing folder names, etc, the TF3D music player could not find music anymore. Tried everything could think of, no luck. Can not figure out exactly what caused this.
Took out storage card, did a 'Clear Storage' from the settings/system tab and then all was fine again. Had to reinstall my programs, no problem. Now TF3D music player finds all music on card and device once again.

Problem with SENSE Music player

i tried to play music from the desktop but i can't see any songs or any albums..
i got a message says (The music titles in the playlist no longer exist. They may have been deleted or the storage card may have been removed) ..
in spite of i have songs on the device and on the storage card.. and i can play them with the media player and other apps...
i need your help guys.. how do i fix the Sense Music player to see my Songs/Albums list again!?
thanks alot
Does this happen when your phone is connected to your computer ? If so it sounds like your hd2 id set to work as a removable storage device when its connected to your pc, where the sd card becomes unavaliable to the phone and you can only access it from tue computer to transfer files.
reply
no i set the device on ActiveSync and the device not connected to pc.. still not working :s
Any genius here?
I have the exact same problem. The songs are located on the SD and I can play them with WMP or CorePlayer but Sense can't seem to locate them.
I didn't have this problem 2 days ago, but yesterday I copied 4 more albums to my SD card and since then Sense Music can't locate anything.
I have about 2GB of music but I doubt there's some limit. I tryied removing the SD and soft resetting the device a few times but it didn't fix the problem.
The card is in good shape and all apps installed on it work just fine.
I've had this issue on a couple of occasions. The sense player shows no files, but, of course, there are! I actually coaxed the Sense player into finding them by going to the menu tab and selected Add to Playlist. My files were THERE, but not in the actual Sense UI. I selected a song, it started to play, and then, voila, all of the files populated the Sense player again. It's odd...
not sure if I have the same problem, but when it happens to me, I just wait for ages and then they reappear. I think it just takes the Audio Manager Engine ages to re-scan your memory card after it has been connected to a pc. I often find that I can see files on the song tab before they appear on the Album or Artist tab.
this happens to me everytime i add a track or tracks, and every time i soft reset, all you have to do is go to song tab when phone is in horizintal view ( click library> slide to songs ) individual songs are there l, just play one then everything starts comeing back....
hellyeah!
Damn you're a genious!!
i've been trying for hours..
now i got my music back in sense player!
thanks!

[Q] Music directory

The Music app seems to load every audio file on my internal and sd card memory. How can I make it so that Music will only check my music folders? I tried the .nomedia trick but everything still shows up. I appreciate any help.
Does anybody else have this issue? I have audio books, recorded calls, voice memos, etc showing up in winamp, music, etc
Really? Im the only one here with this problem?
what i have done for every phone i have had is make a music only folder on the sd card and no other files in the folder and it works perfect.
i dont really think winamp and the default music player have folder options but i think power amp does
I do only have music in my music folder. these players are grabbing all audio files, even ones they can't play for some reason (ie: wav), from every folder on both the internal and sd memory. i have put a ".nomedia" file in all other folders besides the one with my music ion it and still no good. i will take a look at this power amp though.
Okay checked out power amp. it does have folder options which totally fixes my issue but it's a paid app... you shouldnt have to pay for this kind of feature.
hmm..that is weird.. I also just created a 'Music' folder on my SD card, and my music player has no problems.. it doesn't see anything else but that folder for music..
I stuck all my ringtones, notifications, alerts on the internal SD like this:
\media\Audio\Alarms
\media\Audio\Notifications
\media\Audio\Ringtones
those do not show up in my music list when I open the music player..
hth...

[Q] Weird happening with my music

I've got a galaxy S4 running on Google Edition 4.4. I have always used MediaMonkey to add my music onto my device, last week I had added a bunch of new songs to my phone (onto the EXT SD card). I went to add some more today and I had noticed a bunch of songs missing according to MediaMonkey. I went onto the device with windows explorer and to my surprise couldn't locate a random chunk of the songs that I put on last week.
Oddly enough the Google music app can still see and play the songs on my device, but according to my PC they do not exist. The only way I can actually view all the missing songs is through ES File Explorer in which everything is in the music folder and seems fine.
View hidden files is enabled, did something mess up when the songs were copied over or what the heck happened?

playlist problem on rebooting

All of my music is on a 200gb sd card. In google play music I created a number of playlists over a couple of days. I recently rebooted phone and noticed that most of the playlists had lost all of their songs. Rebooted again and another couple of playlists went the same way.
The music still exists on the sd card. The artists and albums are still present in the Play Music library and still play ok.
Anyone else had this.......or even better, a solution
Edit - seems to occur after a power off and power on rather than a reboot

I have done a few tests and can now say that the problem only exists if the playlist points to music on sd card. If the playlist points to music on internal storage then rebooting the phone does not affect the playlist.
Therefore it seems likely that rebooting the phone causes the path to the music files (on the sd card) to change, so play music can no longer find the songs even though they still exist on the sd card.
PS......emailed Samsung Support, their reply was that rebooting the phone causes all of the music files on the device to be deleted (even though I explained that my music is on sd card not device memory and that the music files still exist, just they don't show up in the playlist)
What about trying another music player, or another playlist format (like M3U, but maybe for that u need another music player too)... in my personal experience, the music was the biggest problem because I feel like Goole Play Music is worst that windows media player xD, and actually find a good media player is so hard, but never tried GPM, so maybe is a problem from the app and no the phone itself

Yeah, using Poweramp now..........and I've found I prefer it to GPM so should be grateful that I had the problem
#same
Yeah.. annoying as.. Wasted hours putting playlists together on Music Player only to have contents get deleted when power off / on.. Read something about being able to make sd card 'adoptable storage' by tweeking developer options.. may give this a try, but it involves formatting the current sd card, so plan to try when i have some time..
