Perfect music player.... still looking

Hey guys
i've got an Omnia and I have had many Windows phones before but i've never found the perfect music player. Wondering if anyone that knows of one that will fit all the requirements below:
MUST continue to play when screen is off/device is off (like WMP does)
Must not interfere with the normal pin unlock/screen saver process
Will read and have quick access to all my music (around 14gig) of WMA/MP3's and an easy way to access it.
I don't want to install S2U2. I like the fact that to use the phone all i do is turn on and use my screen unlock code - I'm guessing S2U2 will add another layer to this.
S2P has an awefull system for dealing with larger libraries, unless im being an idiot. There appears to be no way to jump around easily and scrolling through 14gig of music takes a looooooong time.
Believe it or not, i've found WMP the best so far in that I can fire it up, select my playlist and then turn the device off and it will continue to play in the background - perfect! Sadly though, its a bit old and crap.
Can anyone suggest a player that will do this?
Many thanks in advance!!!

Nitrogen. Not sure if it fulfils last requirement. If you haven't tried it, give it a search on the forum.

most players got the option of as they call it "toggle screen" or "blank screen"
which is what you request when you say "MUST continue to play when screen is off/device is off (like WMP does)"

Sadly Nitrogen doesn't appear to support WMA
Cheers anyway!

Not really no. I want the windows pin/lock screen to take over and leave the device power saving to the operating system. If I lose the phone whilst it has one of these apps running, anyone can unlock it. WMP will let the OS turn off the screen thus invoking the Windows password screen when I turn it back on. The apps i've tried (a while ago, i admit!) didn't. If the OS turned the screen and device off, the app stopped as well..... doh!
That is, unless these apps do do this now?

I like Conduits Pocket Player: http://www.conduits.com/products/player/

Have you tried Mort Player?
I love it i use it mainly to stream shoutcast internet radio that i have saved my fav stations playlists to the phone.
It works great in the backround as long as you set the screen to turn off on battery to a timeout shorter then the device default .. I normally have it on 10 seconds.
You can also choose to lock all the buttons so it does not wake the device up or pocket dial. It works well with incoming calls and pauses the music when phone call comes in and resumes afterwards.
You can set favorites such as folders or playlists.
You can set it to resume last track position upon opening and it will resume where it left off and start playing when the app is open.
There are a ton of cool skins for the player with multiple screens for Navigation small bar that is always on top. Car screen. Default screen and a playlist screen.
If you set the play mode to changer mode it will treat each folder like a cd meaning u can leave shuffle on for your tracks and then when u want another cd just skip to the next album (seperate track and folder Next and previous buttons)
It even has an alarm clock so you can set your favorite songs to play as alarms.

Hi guys
thanks very much for a very detailed response on Mort player. Will give it a look right now!

If you want something that you can navigate through a large library quickly give KInoma Play a go. I also have an Omnia with 26gb dedicated to music and its as slick as an Ipod. Mort and Pocket Player are good music players but suck when it comes up a slick interface.

Agreed (on Mort player) ... waaay to complicated. I even managed to get it to lock me out of my own phone..... sheesh!
Anyway, i'll check out Kinoma now mate.

Kinoma won't do WMA without buying it.
Kinoma doesn't seem to have a screen lock function - although as it didn't play WMA i didn't bother looking too hard
Kinoma locked up whenever I tried to exit it.
So, back to square one.... still....

This *seems* to do everything i want. Not tested its playing yet but it has at least recognised my WMP playlists and my WMA/MP3's - always a good start! Has its own screen off which i'm not happy about but can live with. Has a 30day license and if it works good, i'll cough up the cash. Thanks for the recommendation!
As for Mortplayer..... won't even uninstall if I want to remove settings, it locks up! Had to reboot twice and would only uninstall if it left its settings - crap imo, very, very crap.

aargh.... still looking!
Conduites player doesn't seem to be able to lock the screen and disable the buttons - although i could be missing something?
Also, rather oddly, it seems to take forever to open one of my playlists which is annoying and seems to pause about every 30 seconds for about a second. Any ideas?

[APP] Music Controls as APP -Remoter -Its in the Market!

As i wanted to control my music via LauncherPros Dock i created a few small apps to do it, Play/Pause, Next and Prev. Track, Shuffle and Repeat are actually working. At the moment it only works with the Stock Android Music Player, but further support for other music player apps will be included when it hits the market.
I have planned another app to show the actually playing track in a toast popup, but thats not ready at all.
As far as i know it should also work with widgetLockers custom sliders, in folders, with the more icons widget and so on, everywhere where an app is possible to be started.
I attached the apps, they are only signed for approx 90 days(from the 23rd on), cause its only a test package, there are no icons, but will be done when it is released to market...
Remoter is only a working title

I have now confirmed it to be working with Widget Locker, really works like a charm

Nice...................

working fine with ADW launcher, am using them like small icons on the home screen

What does "signed for 90 days" mean? This will stop working after 90 days or I won't be able to install, but if I installed it earlier I could use it?

Works great mate... thx for your hard work. cheers.

Works great!

Truly handy app. I look forward to future development. I only used 2 out of the 3 docks in LP, so this was exactly what I needed...

This sounds like a great idea. I run ADW on CM6.0.0 so I'm glad to see mention that it works on ADW (figured it would). I downloaded and will give this a try later on this evening if I remember lol. I have been using MortPlayer as my music player of choice and it's widget leaves much to be desired so this'll add some useful functionality for me.

Great app!!
Here are some icons I made very quickly.
Previous arrow, play, next, and a clear/transparent icon are included.

can i see a screenshot of it in action?
how do i install this? sorry..

can it control music streaming apps?
can this be adapted to control music steaming services, like pandora, slacker, and last.fm...I'd love to be able to have one single ui control whatever streaming app that is currently running

At first thank you all,
Signed for 90 days means you will just be able to install it for 90 days
Have just added icons yesterday, also done 2 apps for switching Shuffle and Repeat states.
I am actually working on multiple music player support, some feedback from the apps(like a popup, short vibrate), to pack them all in one APK and an app wich pops up all possible information about the song playing(Cover, Artist, Title, Album).
Suggestions are welcome!
Will release further updates to the market!

Your work are great man, here another SS.
maybe a shortcut for playlist are good too.

Not working on vibrant. Maybe soon

Samsung uses its own music player am i right? This will be a rather hard task to do, cause the player is closed source and doesnt necessarily have an interface like the stock player, but i promise, i'll look for it, but i can't promise anything. Havent seen any other widget that works with the Samsung or X10, a bad sign.
Actually I am working on 2 things for my apps:
-Packaging them all into one APK, there will be 2 packages in the market, the main pack will contain Play/Pause, Prev and Next track, the donation Pack will also contain Repeat, Shuffle and maybe some additional features.
-Popups for the Actual State of the Player e.g. Playing track, Paused, track skipped and so on
When this is all done support for other music players is sure to come, as far as the player allows me to do it.
Further suggestions are welcome!

I would just focus on writing to the 2.2 media intents and let everyone else catch up properly.

try to download any other rom with the same version you have of the rom, and extract the music apk and install on your rom, the motorola no have the original music player and a extracted the music apk from another rom and the magic are done.

Well I hope you can get it to work for the vibrant but if not its definitely our loss.

This is a movie manager for your tablet (and soon phone running ICS).
Your movies and TV shows are identified and in just one click you could watch them with your favorite player.
free version (no ads) :
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.adree.moviebrowser
paid version with UPnP/DLNA support :
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.adree.moviebrowser.upnp

little bump just to let you know the app now support samba (without root) and new layouts for ICS phones.
best wishes

Hi
Great app just got the paid version. Me I had trouble since my server lost often upnp connectivity but samba as protocol overcomes this problem. Nevertheless further improvements are visible. I would like to remove manually some movies it detects and would like as well to manually change some movie information.
I think especially for series the automatic detection works only poorly.
Hope some will be fixed in next update.
Keep up the good work !

nice i think but to try

Thanks for the feedback,
I know I need to work on a way to manually identify series, atm I'm working on some little UI improvment like creating tabs for video sources and grouping by seasons then I will work on that for sure.
Regards

Hi welcome
Actually I judged a little bit too fast, most series I was able now to include. Is there a way to differentiate between the different seasons ? For example I do have multiple Dexter seasons but can't distinguish them until I click on one of the item. Then it would say season 1 or 2 but they do have the same icons...

Would this work with a Pogoplug device as well? The device support UPnP so I guess it would right?

Obviously yes, and in case the device as trouble to be recognised you can still use Samba.
If you want to be sure try the free version, the browser in the setup screen will show your device if its recognised.

Great App!!!
This is a great app I got the paid version.
Just finished renaming a bunch of my TV episodes.
Some of my movies didn't translate to the right IMBD number Example: 2012: Ice Age was resolved as Ice Age:continental Drift with is a Animated Movie. Not sure if there is another option to maybe include more description in my File Name to get the right movie.

I need some help with the Samba settings in moviebrowser and windows 7. Is it possible to look at the movies over 3G?
[Edit] I figured it out to configure samba in my own network, but over the internet seems it be a bit more complicated.

Hi
thanks for the latest update, really brought some improvements!
Any progress on two important points, manual editing and manual removal of unwanted
movies ? The first one I overcame now by just renaming the files, but the second one
keeps being a little bit annoying. For example I do have a few movies which
then contain several video files, only one being the actual movie. Not being able
to remove the other ones adds unwanted extra films which I cant remove.
Keep on , updating !

@sweborn : To browse over the INTERNET you should look at upnp/dlna. some servers offer this option and its easily/safely configurable.
@ebioman : Its coming soon now have lot of idea in mind its just a matter of prioritizing.
best regards

Does it work on smartphone?

Just want to say I love this app and bought the pro UPNP version!
I was so happy to see the addition of the TVDB api and I just LOVE the ability to fold all seasons into one using tabs!
Great Feature since I have a lot of TV stuff on my Server.
But there are still some bugs in the scraping aspects.
For one I can't seem to get the Looney Tunes collection to scrape properly. I know this is a special case as it uses years for Season Info not the usual 01,02 Etc...
S00 Scrapes properly but I suspect in the API implementation you may be truncating the season as the 4 number seasons do not seem to scrape properly and be incorporated into the season.
I also have an issue with remakes such as Day of the Dead where both wind p with the newer icon despite proper year being noted in the title.
Again I would suspect the full title (like the fll season number) is being truncated somehow.
As to what everyone else said I would love to be able to manually edit the Images and descriptions for movies I have that would not scrape because they are personal or un documented.
But all that aside I love this program you made!
EDIT: One feature I would like to see added is if the default meta source (in my case MovieDB and TVDB) comes up empty that the program should also look at IMDB

How can you choose which video player? I have bsplayer and MX player and I can't choose bsplayer

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Well for one your selections for players are limited by the filetype your trying to play and where your playing it from.
You choose the video player on first play and I suspect you may have set one as the default which would inhibit the program from asking again.
What player does it default to on playback?
Find that player in you Settings Applications and clear any defaults it has set.
Go back to Movie browser, try and play something and it should pop up a list of the players it can use.
If your bsplayer doesn't show in that list then it doesn't support that filetype.
If you don't check use player by default it will ask you for which player to use each time.

Filemasks for search?
Any chance to get exclusion filemasks for search setup? For example the recordings from my htpc all have the channel name being included as part of name being searched: Example: "A Walk in the Clouds WWLFDT2" and the lookup fails due to the channel name...exclusion filemasks could be added so that _WWLFDT2_ in the filename gets converted to just "_" before doing a search.

Any chance we can have a version that works on Android 2.3?
I just bought a media player an having this app would be awesome
its this one btw.

Been using this for a while on my tablet (TF101) and has been great (uPNP version)!
just got a google tv box (logitech revue) and have downloaded this for its primary use on there (I have ESFile Explorer and GTVBox players installed, vplayer and other not working) - seeing the following issues:
1. The view in google TV means that you can only see 2 movies at a time, makes it quite slow to move around - can you a include a specific theme for gtv (for me, would be a wallpaper of all covers, with a second page for individual movie details?)
2. I cannot get a movie to play from the browser - it seems to be favouring GTVBox over ES video player (even though no defaults are set) and goes to a blank screen with the honeycomb circle (please wait) showing continuously
I have the movie files on an external hard drive connected to the USB input, so no uPNP issues to worry about - I will try moving a movie onto the internal memory tonight to see if that changes anything??
any tricks to try would be appreciated - looking for this to be my main app on the lgoitech (so that my son lets me have my tablet back!)

Improvements for GTV
I am actually glad I read this. GTVBox has been giving me headaches in the video streaming category & I was curious about this on when looking through Google Play. Other than the issues below are you planning on adding a more in-depth video search? Most of my videos are in their own sub-folders & they are divided up by genre.
Plus I did see that the app appears to go to the GTVBox video player which makes me apprehensive in purchasing the full version. If you can add like genre folders & have the app point to the default player when selecting a movie I'd by this in a heartbeat. But seriously, 15min is not enough time for me to fully test out the paid version to see if this is what I am looking for.
I am impressed with the movie database look-up though, really cool!

Browsing Media Files From PC To Galaxy - Playing Music/Videos ON The Device, No Remot

Hello fellow xda members!
I've recently got a galaxy 2 7.0 tab as a gift from a buddy of mine.
I was curious as to using the device in some ways like a net book. I mean heck the tablet is light, small and can be carried almost anywhere.
But I was wondering if there is any sort of way either default, mods, apps in order to browse my files on the pc?
I'm not looking for a remote app where for example you have a foobar remote (a music player on the pc) to use the tablet as a remote to play music on the pc... I find that pretty useless because I want to be able to hear the music from my tablet not my pc.
I've seen videos and I believe the app is called splash or somewhere around those lines, where you completely control the computer on the tablet, as if the tablet was a touch monitor.
That seems interesting but I'm more into looking for a file browser like application or mod where I can just browse through my computers folders and such in order to smoothly stream music and movies on my tablet through the WiFi network of my pc.
So pretty much, I'm looking for a way to stream files from my pc to my tablet without a lot of hassle and taking smoothness into consideration. I mean if there is no such way, I guess the other method where you completely control your pc would be nice too.
All in all, just a way to stream files on my tablet from my pc, and being able to listen and visualize it on my tablet, not my computer.
Thank you!

I had been using es file explorer (estrongs) but wanted something better. I have found the one app for managing your device's files and can access network drives. http://android.nextapp.com/site/
The basic app is free, but for sharing as you desire, there is a 7 day trial before you would have to buy the 'plus' add-on. I used the trial for 1 day and liked it enough to upgrade and install on both of my devices.
Browse, copy, move, open, edit networked files all from your tablet.
Get it. You won't regret it.
You can't know your limits until you exceed them.

A few screen shots showing navigation into one of our PCs... Hope I show them in the right order...

After I select the primary drive (the C:\ drive):
If you navigate all the way to an mp3, avi, or jpeg file you can open it using whatever android app you prefer. For movies, I prefer MX player. Smooth streaming.
You can't know your limits until you exceed them.

Thank you so much! I'll check it out and report back
The UI looks very slick and fits with the tablet

Was wondering how you actually open files with the default or custom apps on the tab? Because whenever I click something, it'll show up with open with FX files.
At the bottom, it'll say file is too large to retrieve and send to an application.
EDIT:
I got the mx player (free one) to work with the app, however the videos as assumed were pretty choppy/laggy. Is it because I'm using the free version of mx player or cause of my wifi? My wifi is good, so probably because the tablet can't handle it maybe?
I was also wondering, should i be using the default mx player or the special ones like armv6 or armv7?
And, was also wondering if it's possible to access external hard drives from this as well? I can access my C drive, but my external G drive with all the movies and music can't be reached.
Thanks again!

You will be asked what app to use to open a file if you have more than one app that can open the file and none of them are set as the default app for such file. I believe defaults are cleared if you install a new app that is capable of running a file. For example, if you recieve an e-mail with a web link and you click on that link, the browser that opens the link is obviously the default app. If you install a new browser then try to open that link again, you should get a prompt asking you which app you want to use. This is where you would decide if you want to use a particular app for all future instances of opening a link (at least until you get a new browser or do an update on the non-default browser). I've seen some apps show up on the choice box that had nothing to do with that particular file type. I always try each one before I select 'always' on the selection box.
I'm able to run movies that are in excess of 1GB. No issues with lagging. Could be your PC delaying or stuttering the transmission of the file. Could be your wifi activity, if you have other devices doing network tasks it could be hogging your bandwidth. Reboot the PC and the tablet after you have got them working together. Might help.
The MX Player app should detect your configuration and suggest you install the additional apps such as the ARMV6. I use an Asus TF700 for these apps, so I don't know what you would need for your device.
External drives are accessable. If they have sharing enabled and you have set a share name (all done in windows sharing). You see in my screenshot that I have several external drives (FreeAgent Go Flex and JVC camcorder are USB2.0 connections).

one other option...
That app that duck mentioned above seemed very interesting and I am going to try it out myself! One other option you can do to move files back and forth from PC to tablet and vise versa is an "ftp server app". You can get many of these apps for free from the Google store. All you do is download the ftp server app and setup a login and pass. Then you download an ftp client for windows such as filezilla (which is my favorite). Now you just connect to the IP address and port number given by the ftp app running on your tablet. Now you can transfer files back and forth very easily! The best part of this is that one, its completely free and two, your tablet does not need to be rooted.
Also you should look for the Samsung usb drivers so you can connect your tablet that way and move files from your PC to your tablet or sdcard of tablet very easy. You can find these USB drivers here on this forum or with a simple Google search. If for some reason you can't find them let me know and I will post you a link.
Oh, and if you are looking for a way to control your PC remotely, look into team viewer it is such a great app, the absolute best!
I hope that has helped you out,

Sorry ink I thought you only wanted to transfer files from PC to tablet, not play/stream files that on your PC from your tablet. However, if you move the files over to your tablet, especially movies they will play better, and then you can always delete the file to free up the space. I see you are having trouble playing videos with MX player...
Try mobo player or v player both of those work great for me...
I hope that what I said above helps you out, there is always more than one way to do things.

i don't know what "quick connect" work.
But with my app
- You can browse content from your phone, and media server media from PC.
- You can select and play with multiple TV in same time.
- Open media with TV or your phone.
Thanks

Any chance we could use this app to capture/stream spotify/pandora to a dlna receiver?
if not, is that something that could be added?

Hello @levuphuong,
I tried your app. It works with my samsung smart TV after setting the device (OnePlus X) as server from settings. After some minutes it showed content in "home" and played it on the TV, although pause and transport didn't work (they showed an "unsupported" notification on the TV).
I was taking a look around for some DLNA implementation on Android, as I wanted to include a "transmit via DLNA" feature in my app; something similar to the Samsung app "smart view" or the "cast" option for media file in my OPX; simply click on the file and share it to the TV.

Black screen and no detecting of media
Appearently at startup the app is searching the lan for dlna servers. During that time there is just nothing like a black screen, and it blocks any other operation on my device. So it looks like the app crashed. It would be better to have a screen with a moving bar which informs about the state of the app. When it comes back after a long time, it discovered a dlna server on another computer in my network. But it does not show media, so nothing to play. There are even no directories for vidro, audio, and pics.
So at the moment not usable. My device is a JiaYu S3 3GB

i think that problem happens when you enable your phone as dlna server and return home (it needs time to start server in phone). May be I need to improve it.
And some server show nothing because you didn't add media to that server. Recommend to use Tverisy for PC. it is free and really good.
Thanks

OK, thanks for your answer!
