Hi,
somehow honeycomb can't play about half of my music files.
All of them are 128kb/s mp3 files.
Is there any solution to that / does anyone expirience the same?
I've had same issues with some of my mp3 files. All off them with the default music player. The same files however all played fine in PowerAmp.
I wanted to mention that I'm having the same issue. Even if I'm playing an album, some of the songs on the album won't play even though they all came from the same source. And it also groups the unplayable mp3s as 'unknown artist'. It's quite annoying.
I've even tried editing the tag info to make them all the same, but it still wouldn't play those particular songs.
Do you find that some of your albums get mixed?
eg: you upload an album 'S&M' Metallica into one folder and you end up with two albums! 4 in one and 16 in the other

Your ID3 tags are screwed up. Make sure the tag 'Album Artist's is set the same too.

Soughted it thanks, i used http://www.mp3tag.de/en/
I had the same problem, some of my mp3's would give me and error and could not play with any player. It was weird, it would be the same album (coverted by me) and only 2 or 3 song would play. Now since I flashed 3.1 so far so good. The ones that gave me and error, now play fine even with the stock player.

just received 8 gigs sd card...got like 1000+ songs in it but audio manager can only load the first 2 songs only...couldn't load the rest of the songs...window media is ok but i rather play songs with the audio manager..anyone know what is the problem?
Never heard of that before :O Sounds like a weird one. Hope you find a solution.
Have you tried removing the two songs that it DOES load, and see if it loads any other ones?
Different file formats maybe??
all songs are in mp3 format. same formats as the loaded songs. im using duttys rom. weird how it load songs from my 2 gigs but it wont load the songs from the 8 gigs except the first 2 songs....
I'm on a different rom now. But currently some of my songs are not accessible via the album listing, only "All Songs". I find that kinda weird, not that I really care. Still though, don't know why it would only show certain albums, even though all songs have album art and information and are part of an album.. oh well.
I have no more ideas for you
Ok, so i really would love to fix few problems in pocket player, namely, there are a few of my songs just not playing for some reasons, they are mp3 just like all the others ripped from their discs just like the rest but just wont work, any suggestions?
also, the library seem to have a problem in common with WMP, at least for where i get songs ending up in unkown albums or artist (in wmp i also get multiple albums with the exact same name under the same artis when they really should be one album)even though they are put in the correct album/artist in my computers wmp library.
Please any suggestions what might be wrong? I have put the music on the card several times both by the phones link cable or the memory card plugged directly in to the computer.
Also feel free to suggest any good free media players, mortplayer is good, but i cant seem to find a way to get it to work in landscape mode so... otherwise its great with its changer mode and all...

TCPMP is another option, but will be good to know which ones you already tested so we can help you better
Ive tried,
WMP
MortPlayer
Pocket Player
S2P
this far pocket player is my favourite axept for the stated problems (and it could really use a change mode, switching album when the current ends), though mort is perfectly fine, except for the lack of landscape mode
(as for those few songs that wont play in pocket player, they play in the other players ive tried)

I think you´re right mate, perhaps the problem is how they are organized...
ok ill try those out, but if its the files that are fault isnt it strange that pocket player is the only player of both mobile and pc ones that wont play it? the others from the same discs play without problems
Can Pocket Player play AAC files?
I'm sure before I did a hard reset on my Xperia I had it playing those files. Maybe I am wrong, but it seemed to play everything from my iTunes library but the protected files, and now it plays only mp3 not m4a.

Yes it will play AAC files.
As far as not seeing or playing the other files, it could be the encoding/ripping that was done. What program did you use and how did you tag the MP3's? That will have a great impact on the result of Pocketplayer seeing and playing the files.
I personally love Pocket Player and will use nothing less. There are a lot of great apps out there, but PP has everything in it including the kitchen sink.
If you would like to try and re-rip some of your CD's I recommend you use EAC (Exact Audio Copy) with the lame format. You can google EAC and lame's latest download. Then google EAC setup and you will find a few great reads on how to set it up perfectly for what you want, even AAC if you desire.
Just my two cents.
I've had problems with songs not showing in the library or being shown in another album or artist. This was due to missing correct data in the AlbumArtist tag of the files (songs). I just updated these tags for all my songs and the library now displays them correctly. Also, some other files, like small wavs will not be included in the library if you have checked the HIDE SMALL FILES... option.

My Pocket Player did used to play my m4a files, but since I did a hard reset and have installed the latest version of Pocket Player when I load up an album that is in m4a file format, it wont play. It shows them, but wont play them, exactly as if they were protected files bought from the iTunes Store, which in the case they are not.
I've tried going back to the old version of Pocket Player, but the same problem now happens there.
I've used Missing Sync for Windows Mobile on my Mac to put the files across, and they work fine on Core Player.
It's bad enough that my Xperia wont play protected aac/m4a files without all now not playing... eek...
Upgrading to Pocket Player 4 fixed this problem.

I was going to suggest that very thing. Good to hear you got it resolved.
I have a huge library of music that is all perfectly tagged in iTunes. Yet when I move to my Nexus One, a lot of it doesn't appear correctly. lots of "unknown artists" or songs in the incorrect track order.
is there something I need to know about doing this correctly? again, all of the music has been meticulously tagged in iTunes.
thanks
I'm no expert on iTunes, but I did used my iPhone 2G for the past two years. All I can tell you is that I believe iTunes keeps tags and all your music info under it's own database (might be wrong ). I don't believe it actually "tags" your mp3 files. That's why I stopped using it to tag my collection.
I use mp3Tag to tag my files, and it even does mp4 movie files.

That is very weird. I have only encounter one of my albums not showing the "cover art" on the Nexus. But all tags are correct and show properly. Maybe rescanning the SD card might help?
iTunes does indeed keep it's own database.
Therefore it doesn't actually embed the info into each track.
Remember to label the file in wondows explorer as well as I think the N1 might use this.
You can enbed all of the info using iTunes so that your music is perfect on all devices but it is tedious, on another post I've commented that I've done 120Gb (21000 songs) of my 300Gb so far.......
Use doubleTwist. Syncs iTunes to pretty much any MP3 device these days. They recently added N1 support. It's free too.
Works perfectly too- all my tags and album artwork are showing up under the standard music app and nemoPlayer from the Liquid.
I stopped using itunes a long time ago and switched to mediamonkey. Each time I put an album in the library I update the tag from the web, this includes the album covers in the mp3 tags. everything copies just fine to the N1.

I love MediaMonkey. I even bought the Pro version .
doubleTwist is nice but what killed it for me is the fact that it doesn't support networked drives Not sure if they fixed this yet.
I have all my content on a NAS.

you all sure about this. I've moved my "tagged" items from iTunes many times into different client apps and always had it stay tagged the same way. this is not a challenge to your knowledge simply a "really?"
if indeed true, then to clarify what is the best app to use to tag all my music again so it shows correctly in any other client music app i use it in?

You also have to give the media player a chance to update it's display.
I noticed this when I dumped a bunch of music on it, went immediately to the player and saw a bunch of stuff tagged wrong and then I watched it correct itself after a few seconds and combine some artists that it was seeing wrong.

yea...it's been days though.
Android uses idv2 for identifying tags and it ignores idv1 but there are tagger apps on the market that work well like mp3tagger or tag but if you perfer a PC then go for it.
i've got the problem, that albums are not grouped right. If i got a album from one artist, everything ist ok, but if i've got a album with diferent artists, it is sorted by the artist name an i've got 20 albums (with the same name) and only one track in it, this is very ugly...
like showen in this screenshot. Here you see the album from Rammstein - Liebe ist für alle da (it is only showen one time) but demovibes 9 is showen multiple

Artist needs to be tagged as various, and each artist needs to be tagged in "track artist"
omg, then i need to retag my whole collection...
on every app and device it is working correctly, only on my android phones not, this is evil
co-sign on mediamonkey.
it'll make your changing album artist to "various" really easy.
changed everything in media monkey. was pretty easy as those have said. then deleted entire library in iTunes and added again. I couldn't believe it when they all went back to how they were originally tagged in iTunes. what the heck gives?
Not only that but a bunch of them are tagged one way in Media Monkey and a different way in iTunes.
this is so frustrating....
With the iphone, I could add videos to my music playlist. I cannot find a similar app for my nexus one. I don't really want to keep a mp3 for my playlist AND the mp4 video of the same song. Does anyone know a fix?

Try meridian player on the market, for free, I handles videos and music playlists..unless you're looking to play videos files and music files at the same time..not sure possible!
Yeah, I mean at the same time. On the iphone, I could add a video to my music playlist. It would still play the video selected, like a song, with the screen turned off. I can't seem to find one that can do that on the nexus one.
I know MixZing and Meridian all play both music and video so you could try each to see if they work. There's a third that was on my mind but I can't remember that also plays both, maybe it was Zimly? I forgot now.
Hello
Sorry for a possibly "silly" question : I've installed Zimly and
can't find out where are stored the files, the library etc
could you please help me ?

I'm sorry but your translating service is making a mess of your question...
What is "clip"? Album art? Lyrics? What you "download from youtube" is normally video, which Electrostatic Text already mentioned.

I don't know of any such apps, but I know what you mean now, so I'll elaborate for anyone else who might know:
He/she wants the same kind of music player system that you get with iTunes and iOS devices, where music videos and audio files mix in a way that makes it appear as though music videos are simply audio files with video album art. They mix with the audio file in every other way, from artist/album/etc tags to being included in playlists and shuffle modes.

right, : I want like the iphone player.
we can do it int android ? threre player like that ?
I tried searching on Google Play but couldn't find anything... maybe someone knows of a player that can do it.
I liked that feature in iOS too, but there's one problem with it: video files don't have any system for storing album/artist/title data. Apple adds that to its videos using the .m4v container format, which is how they can merge the two so seamlessly. Without that system in place, it's tricky finding a way to mix audio with album/artist/title data with video files that don't have them. Not impossible, but it could explain why there doesn't seem to be any such apps.
