It is my fav fast music player.
I've tried to include it in my ROM, and whatever i am doing i have same effect, strange...nothing, or error after 1-2 minutes.
i checked filenames, initflashfiles.txt etc, nothing..
anyone had such strange experience with that program?

Seen this asked about in a couple different threads so throught I'd drop a quick answer to this issue that I discovered.
If you are using a third party music player on your PPC, like Pocket Music, and allow it to associate file types .wma and/or .mpg with itself, then custom ringtones stop working with the phone. You can still select the tones from the drop down menu in the phone cpl but will not be able to test them and the phone will default to a standard tone when you exit the cpl. You will have to unassociate them through the music player app setings and soft reset, thrn everything should work fine.
Hope this helps.

I know this is a hell of an old post but thanks. I came across this post when I was like after installing mortplayer and my custom ringtones were screwing up.
Last night I tried to play a video on my phone with Coreplayer (v1.5) and whilst it used to work perfectly and play videos REALLY well, it was now awful quality. Was as if the settings for video had reset to default so I tried changing them (smoothing and GDI or Directdraw output) but it keeps making the program crash when I try this, or immediately afterwards.
I've reinstalled Coreplayer (tried 1.3 and 1.5) and it just keeps crashing when I change the output settings, except for once when it let me change them but was still very jerky video, and then it crashed anyway a couple of seconds later. This is using video files that HAVE played fine in the past.
I've removed S2U2 again and rebooted as I had just installed it the day before, then reinstalled Coreplayer again and still get the same issues. It just seems incapbale of playing video properly now for some reason. I know the settings that work well for it as I did have it working perfectly before, but it just crashes now if I try changing them.
I can't think of anything else that I've added recently which may cause this. Not sure what else to check but there must be something I've changed on the phone that's caused this?
Videos work well if I play them by double tapping them in Total Commander, but silly as it sounds I don't know what player this is using to play them! It's not wmp anyway.
Looks like an HTC player maybe but I can't find an actual video player in winmo apart from WMP. There must be a place in the start menu somewhere for this player but I can't find it. It's not in the Multimedia folder in the start menu either so I'm confused!
Annoying because I'm halfway through a film this morning and after going back to home screen, I now don't know how to resume playback without restarting and trying to find the place I was at.
Any ideas? I've looked at other coreplayer related threads but they all seem to be along the lines of just the output settings being wrong and I got no results when I searched for the words coreplayer & crash.
When did 1.5 release?!?! Let me check....
BTW, what ROM are you on? Cooked or Official??
Oops! Sorry, I meant to write 1.3.2 and 1.3.5!!!
My bad.
I'm using the 1.61 official turkish rom.
You sure it is 1.5? Can't find a hint anywhere!
Duh.. ok, try the 1.3.6 yet?
Thought I was the only one to see this problem, though it did occur with previous HTC devices and Coreplayer for me. Occasionally the database file (Application Data\Coreplayer\library.db) seems to get corrupted (I think when Coreplayer is running, you attach the device to a PC in USB disk mode and say yes to a prompted database rebuild). If you delete the library.db file with File Explorer or an equivalent program. it should rebuild it OK. Quite annoyingly, this file doesn't get deleted when Coreplayer is uninstalled, so an uninstall/reinstall doesn't resolve this.
There seems to be a universal problem with most of the newer 6.5.x roms with the Sense music player. The problem it seems that the internal sense music database becomes corrupt. Example follows;
1) On a clean build (recently flashed or hard reset) - with some music on your SD card, open the music tab.The screen will show 'Searching...'.
2) After some time it will display the albums/songs/etc. Normal. Good.
3) Now plug the device back into USB, wait a little time, then disconnect USB.
4) Goto music tab, device shows 'Searching...' but now gets stuck forever there. You now lose the music player - totally useless.
Does anyone know where sense stores it's music database...is there a file we can delete (like Windows Media player database file you can delete and recreate) ? I tried deleting the Windoes Media database file but that doesnt help. Thanks.
** NOTE - Dutty's latest HG 6.5.x builds are the only ones I found so far that this works (but sense is still very slow to scan if you have over 100 songs on your SD card). **

I had that issue, I just removed and re-attached the SD card, OR if u dont want to have to remove the back plate. go to your settings, set your phone to Windows Mobile, then go back and set it to Sense. cleared it up for me both ways

Thanks - might try that next time. Still sucks to have to do this every time you connect your device to USB.
Code:
\Application Data\HTC\AudioManager_Eng\AudioManager_eng.vol
To delete it: rename, reboot Manila, delete the one you renamed.
It will be automatically regenerated, and you will be left with a faster, less corrupt music tab.
fowl2 - thanks I will try that also.
Does anyone know what that little 'spinning wheel' icon means in the top left. It's next to an icon to update album art and seems to randomly spin from time to time. I thought it may have meant it is updating the album art for the current song, but this thing spins randomly, even if the current song already has album art ?

hi, I encountered some problem with the media player in sense after i tried to syn the lib with my notebook. now i cannot play the player from sense. gives me some error. i did a hard rest and still cud not resolve the prob.
before i try your method, i would like to clarify :
1. i rename the file AudioManager_eng.vol - as in i dun have to backup this file
2. reboot Manila - as in reboot the phone
3. delete the file the I renamed after I've rebooted the phone
the music tab will be automatically regenerated when i go to the media play in sense ?
Thanks
I gave up on the Sense player - it's so embarrasingly unstable and slow compared to S2P. I can't recommend that enough.

Try converting ALL your mp3 files to wma format. I solved in this way. take a look to my thread with a very similar problem.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=640948
Thanks everyone for the replies.
In the end, I disabled the sense media player
cadorna, I will read thru the thread when i have the time. Thanks
i changed the media file to wav. all is good now
the easiest way is to kill the audiomanager process with some task manager and then run the sense audio manager.
corrupt mp3's can cause this issue....
re-format sdcard would be the next step...
Greetings people.
Since my storage card is full with over 700 mp3's, audiobooks and stand up comedy shows, naturally when I navigate to the TF3D music player it lags. A lot!
It takes about 10-15 seconds just to load the music files, and another 10 seconds from the moment I hit play/pause/next till it actually starts/pauses/changes a song. Plus it loads all my audiobook tracks as well.
Is there a way to make the TF3D Music tab search under -only one- folder? For example Storage Card/My Documents/My TF3D Music?
I tried the solution posted here but it doesn't work.
Thank you in advance!
I love the net.
On December, I was searching for over a week for a solution and found nothing.
Yesterday, I searched for a minute and voila, solution found!
Quick note: Total Commander did not make sub-directories hidden as well. I had to mount my sd on my pc and manually set any folder I wanted as hidden.
It all works flawlessly now
Seems a bit excessive but I guess if it works?
I don't think I've ever had to do that with the ROM in my sig but if you aren't up for flashing a custom ROM, then perhaps this is a better solution.
I have one issue that turns into multiple ones: I've used the default [google?] music player and a half dozen others [currently TTPod] and despite is ugly playback, only the default Music Player recognizes all of my stash. the others all miss from 25% to 70% or so of my files.
why is that? if it matters the handset is a LG P509, runs well, is rooted, running modified stock Froyo.
I don't get my music the usual 'store' way: I'm a musician and fan of live sound, so I rip from various sources a lot of live music, render them as MP3's. The players will typically pickup the same bunches and miss the same from one to other, with the exception that none of them handle audiobooks well, or collections of voice/reading/spoken::; examples are I have two versions of Bible audio loaded and a couple of longish books on Audio: player-depending, some will ignore a lot but not all of these files [no pattern] and others will do various things like renaming/numbering the files, leaving them nameless [unknown - track 1, etc] picking up duplicates, identifying individual tracks as albums [again, some, not all, seemingly at random] and elsewise.
???? makes me miss my ipod.
suggestions?

what happens if u select a song(from the ones that dont appear) from a file manager? does it promp you to play the song with whatever player you have? or the file manager doesnt find them either?

you were one step ahead of me. i had not thought of that particular function but I was on the hunt for a good file manager and picked up ES File Explorer. [good app] Anyway, prior to that I went back to market and found a trial of a paid player called PlayerPro. it does the trick. found everything, and was clever enough to obfuscate empty folders. "Folder" view is not the default, but its not hidden either, so using that View everything was quite orderly. so that issue is solved.
I'm still puzzled, however, by the underlying technicals of why this occurs. it would be non-mysterious if there was some consistency, for instance, NO audiobook-type track would be mishandled as an "album", instead of "some are... most are not". And stranger still - CD's that I have ripped directly using a PC based tool have a fairly ordinary file structure [unlike ripping from streams or youtube, or audio tracks from vids] - those genre/album based products completely miss those altogether even though they are in subfolders under "Music".
