I love my Evo, however the music app will play EVERY song it finds, including my ringtones and YouMail messages. Can I make it just play the songs in my songs folder (and sub-folders) on my SD Card? I only want it to search my songs folder, not the whole phone or the whole SD Card.

Is there anyway to stop the stock music player on my HTC Hero from playing songs? I have a bluetooth headset and whenever I use the controls on the headset it activates the stock music player instead of the one I downloaded.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have tried the default music player that is installed with the Droid-X. I've also bought the bTunes player and installed the MixZing player (free version). What is wrong that, by default, all list the tracks of an album in alphabetical order? At least bTunes will let you optionally sort by original track order (although the way given by bTunes is counter-intuitive and you have to start playing a track before you can sort).
By default, all albums should display in original track order. I suppose that for those who have difficulty reading, perhaps an option to list tracks in alphabetical order might be in order for ADA compliance or something. Otherwise, when I browse one of my albums, I want to see it in the order that the original artist intended.
The tracks in an album playing alphabetically instead of by the track number?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to play a playlist I get using the MediaStore provider. However, when I try playing a playlist nothing happens. Can a MediaPlayer play a playlist (m3u file) and do I need to set the first track to play? This is my test code in the onCreate() method:
Uri uri = MediaStore.Audio.Playlists.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI;
if(uri == null) { Log.e("Uri = null");
} String[] projection = new String[] { MediaStore.Audio.Playlists._ID,
MediaStore.Audio.Playlists.NAME, MediaStore.Audio.Playlists.DATA };
Cursor c = managedQuery(uri, projection, null, null, null);
if(c == null) { Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
R.string.alarm_tone_picker_error, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
return; } if(!c.moveToFirst()) { c.close();
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), R.string.alarm_tone_picker_no_music,
Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show(); return; } c.moveToFirst(); try {
MediaPlayer player = new MediaPlayer(); player.setDataSource(c.getString(2));
player.start(); } catch(Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); }
I have turned on every volume stream.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have some pretty simple Soundboard applications on the Android Market that work flawless on an LG Ally, the Motorola Droid, and the Nexus One, but I recently received an e-mail from a user with the Motorola DroidX claiming that most of the sounds do not work. I've exchanged a few e-mails with him. He claims the Soundboard is the only application running, and he's double checked to make sure that the Media Volume wasn't set to minimum. I really don't have access to one either to play around with. The application isn't doing anything cosmic to play the sounds. Below is a code snippet. Any insights into what might be causing the hang up are greatly appreciated.
public void play(Sample sample) {
Log.v(TAG, "Playing: " + getString(sample.getButtonTextResId()) + " (" + sample.getSoundResId() + ")");
if (mPlayer != null) { mPlayer.stop(); mPlayer.release();
} MediaPlayer player = MediaPlayer.create(this, sample.getSoundResId());
mPlayer = player; if (player != null) { player.setVolume(1.0f, 1.0f);
player.setOnCompletionListener(new MediaPlayer.OnCompletionListener() {
@Override public void onCompletion(MediaPlayer mp) { mp.release();
mPlayer = null; } } ); player.start(); } }

In my android game I want to have a rhythm Mediaplayer object and a lead Mediaplayer object playing in sync. However at the moment the rhythm is a slight bit behind the playback of the lead Mediaplayer object. Is there a way I can make it so that both are started at the same time, for instance using Runnables etc?!It's quite crucial that they play in sync with each other as you can imagine!

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am new to using Android. I am wondering if there is any video (MP4) player that would continue playing the video even when I use the home button to switch to other apps (e.g. check my email etc.) I have a few documentaries/discussions to watch and sometimes minimize the video player to check other information on my phone and the video stops.
Any Video players that continue playing when minimized. I know that the Meridian Player continues playing when the screen is switched off, but it stops if you press the home button.

I have now got Genres working in the Music player on my Desire but have hit a new problem. Track Order.
All the tracks in the folders on my SD card have track numbers, copied from the PC folders. This means that when I play an album on my PC it plays in the track order; essential for symphonies!
However in the Desire Music player tracks are sorted alphabetically; Astro shows me that the track numbers are there as part of the file name. I do not wish to created over 100 playlists.
Is there a way to get the Music player to sort tracks by track order?
Alright, I've looked around but haven't ever found anything concrete for this.Is there a way to keep my ringtones/notifications off of my default music player?I tried adding a text document called .nomedia as I'd read in a different post with no luck.
View 5 Replies View RelatedFirst off, I listen to long audio files (5+ hours) on my Inc. pretty much everyday. Ever since the the 2.2 update, if I pause the audio and do something else like open the web browser or an app; once I go back to the media player and press play, it'll restart the track from the beginning. I know this is different from 2.1. I could even turn the phone off and on, and it would still hold it's place in the track. Is anyone else out there experiencing the same thing? Am I stuck with this, or am I missing an option somewhere? I tried a couple different media players, namely Mixzing, but that too loses it's place. I'd really like to keep the stock player, mainly because the lock screen controls are so nicely integrated.
View 8 Replies View RelatedRather than having two music apps (I'm currently using cubed), I'd like to use the stock app but without an accompanying widget, it's near useless.
View 3 Replies View RelatedAnyone know of a widget or app or something that will disable the stock music player? Nothing is worse than starting the car and the phone immediately hijacking the audio and starting to play a ringtone or something. The stock media player is awful. I hope they have something better in the works.
