[Q] looking for music player with very specific features - General Questions and Answers

Hi, I have a Motorola Milestone 2 and a SonyEricsson LiveView and currently I have to use 3 music players to do the job of one (which is kinda annoying).
I'm looking for a player that has ther following features:
can be controlled with the LiveView (that emulates media keys pause/play, previous/next track, same as headphone buttons) WITHOUT THE NEED FOR A PLUGIN!
transmits track info (ID3 tags) to the LiveView
automatically gets CD covers/album art
has a 4x1 widget (lockscreen widget would also be cool, but isn't mandatory)
can fetch lyrics (the ability to display them synched to the song would be a bonus)
can edit ID3 tags (ability to get them automatically via audio fingerprint would be a bonus)
These links show that the LiveView features are not really LiveView specific and can be implemented by any player and would benefit any player:
blog (dot) dexetra (dot) com/2010/09/get-current-playing-track-info-from (dot) html
android-developers (dot) blogspot (dot) com/2010/06/allowing-applications-to-play-nicer (dot) html
Sorry for the weird link format, but since I just registered yesterday I'm technically not allowed to post links (duh).
These are the players I've tested and the features (out of the ones I'm looking for) they have:
Connected Music Player (cmp)
comes preinstalled on Milestone 2
can sometimes be controlled via media keys, but that functionality is so buggy that it rarely works
transmits track info (ID3 tags) to the LiveView
automatically gets CD covers/album art
has a several widgets, but no lockscreen widget
fetches lyrics and displays them synched to the song (TuneWiki apparently provides this functionality)
can NOT edit ID3 tags
Music Mod
modified version of the stock android media player
can be controlled with the LiveView
transmits track info (ID3 tags) to the LiveView
does not automatically get CD covers/album art
has several widgets, but no lock screen widget
can not fetch lyrics (although a version that does this exists, it doesn't display them synched to the song)
can not edit ID3 tags
Music Player
by Music Player Lab
can be controlled with the LiveView
does not transmit track info (ID3 tags) to the LiveView
automatically gets CD covers/album art (though that rarely works for some reason)
has several widgets
can fetch lyrics (does not display them synched)
can edit ID3 tags (does not get them automatically via audio fingerprint)
PowerAMP and Winamp are roughly the same as Music Player.
I guess the ID3 tag transmission stuff is the same that is used to display track info on Bluetooth handsfree sets like car radios via A2DP and/or AVRCP.
Can you PLEASE help me find a music player that has those features? It would be greatly appreciated.
If you are a developer of a music player and you read this: I would gladly help implement those features in your player.
I have a degree in computer science and I'm working as a professional Java SE and web developer for 3.5 years now and I have already played around with the android SDK a little.
I won't be able to put endless hours into this, though because I already have a full time job as a programmer and I need to take a break from programming every once in a while.

Tune Announcer

I have been looking for a way to have a media player say the track/artist at the beginning of a song since it is a pain to look at the screen all the time. Its now possible. Here is the link
http://rikara.blogspot.com/2010/09/android-tune-announcer.html
Description
This is a simple Android application that announces the name and artist of the song currently being played. It uses the native Text-to-Speech capabilities of the device to speak.
Example: The application will speak "Now playing 'Firestarter' by 'The Prodigy'"
The application speaks the text using the system volume and mutes the music whilst speaking. You may need to adjust the system volume to a comfortable level to hear the speech.
Non-standard Media Players and Scrobbler Support
If you are using a non-standard media player i.e. not the Android or HTC players, then adding support is difficult. However, there is a simple workaround if *your* media player supports last.fm scrobbling as these must broadcast Intents to the main scrobblers. Currently, v0.4 supports the Android Simple Last.fm Scrobbler. If you enable this in your media player, then the Tune Announcer will work The next version will support the ScrobbleDroid scrobbler.
latest version works with most players that will scrobble--astroplayer, mixzing etc
that looks really neat, except appbrain doesn't have version 0.5 yet.
EDIT thankfully market does.
testing now.

[UPDATED][14MAY2013]Android Music Players

I've put this thread here to give you guys a variety of music players that you can use. I, like many of you, don't like using the stock music player because it hasn't got the ability to customize it the way we'd like, so we'd like more of a choice. So rather than having to find them all over the place, I will keep everything here in one place.
If you notice any information in this guide which is incorrect, or any bad links, let me know and I'll fix it as soon as possible. Also, I know that there are a load that aren't on this list, so if there are some which aren't on the list but you think they should be, let me know and I'll look into them and update the list.
If you've found this guide useful, rather than posting thanks, simply hit the 'Thanks' button.

-----------------
Longer Story:
Folder Player is a freeware which knows how to play whole directories. It can browse and play individual files, folders, or full folder trees.
Why another music player for Android?
There are many great mp3 players out there. If you're happy with them, you probably don't need another one. But chances are, you have same problem as I had before I created this app - you tried many players (like MortPlayer or WinAmp), and your mp3 tag-based access to your music still too cumbersome, because your world defined - yes - by folders.
Is Folder Player a solution?
****************************
If you want to manage playlists, album pictures, and edit mp3 tags - Folder Player is probably not the right fit.
Cutting those unnecessary (in my opinion) features allowed me to focus on things that really are important: browsing and playing music on a portable device, and that's exactly what makes this app stand out.
Playlists are useless most of the time (IMO). They're killing user experience. Folders and subfolders are much more efficient: you open player, and you get to the music you love right away.
I need you feedback to help me make this app better:
http://folderplayer.com
If you like the player - it is important to rate this app - here is why:
More people rate it -> more people see it -> more feedback -> more updates
(by the way same applies to other apps you like, rate them too!)
Other features include:
- integration with bluetooth headphones (and car)
- integration with last.fm (via scrobbler)
- pauses during phone calls and navigation speech
- sequential and random play
- configurable settings
- Equalizer
- Double press headset button to skip track
- Search (Android 4+)
I would like to thank all the fans of this app, for your feedback, donation, translations and also Uplink (http://vinisoft.com) who helped me with the UI for this app.
(Translation Note) - if you see weird description in your native language - thats because it was translated by robots
Also - I need your help translating UI to your language as well - please let me know if you would like to volunteer.
Thanks!

Great thread, you should add the price next to the player name or say if its free.
Im looking for a player that will show track info like in the screenshot. My default player for my lg showed this and the S3 does as well but haven't found a market app for my nexus that had this look yet.

Hi thank you for the advice, Ive made the Second post with download links easier by adding FREE and PAID versions which are easily marked up.
Also I wouldnt be able to add prices of the Music Players because if the app developers have a sale or reduce prices then my prices wouldnt be correct.
But thank you for your feedback, its always welcome
I would love to personally thank every single one of you who has either left feedback or added suggestions for this thread.

[Q] How to stream Android audio output to UPnp/Airplay/DLNA ... whatever

Hi,
I have got several android devices (HTC Legend; Asus Transformer) and also a media player box (Freebox) that supports both AirPlay and Upnp.
I am very disappointed to see that Android (out of the box, or any app) does not support streaming the raw audio output from this devices to the air (Wifi).
I mean, there are (billions) of apps out there that pretend to be able to share your media with DLNA.
They work more or less.
But it seems not possible to send the very output of the sound card other the Air.
Hence, it is not possible to stream Spotify,Grooveshark,SoundCloud,Youtube .. music to my nice Wifi devices.
iPhone/Pad users are able to send their audio through the Air, since AirPlay is built-in iOS.
Why couldn't I ?
After some research, I found why there is no such app on Android market :
It seems that the Android API purposely prevent from recording / accessing the low level audio output.
It might be to prevent people from ripping / downloading music that is only streamed to them.
So my question is :
Is there some work done to enable output audio capture / streaming for rooted devices ?
Either with an App or in alternative mod (Cyanogen ?)
Please point me to some resource, or advice me where I could post
a feature request for Cyanogen.
Thanks in advance,
Raphael
Thanks Raphael,
Not to steal this thread or anything, but I've spent soooo much much time trying to figure this out as well. The closest I've come to a STABLE solution is Twonky's ability to stream music that's stored on my phone to my WDTV Live (DLNA), but that's not what I want. I've practically given up on this, so if any one out there knows anything, please help!!!
Check out ArkMC, it's DLNA certified client, can subscribe to YouTube channels, stream YouTube content to DLNA/UPnP devices, and has feature ""Send to external player" - allows to share current playback to other renderers.
ArkMC on xda
Before I switch to android, I was using an iPhone. and today, the only feature I really miss is airplay. I can't understand why google didn't yet implement a system wide streaming service.
AH HA!
after hours of searching I find I'm not the only one searching for this!!!
I too would love to have this function, I currently use the Last.fm app on my phone but would love to sream it to my upnp/dlna hifi, I used to use the xbmc last.fm addon but since last.fm made changes to their api it no longer works
Still, I will keep searching and if I find a way I'll let you know, it seems such a simple idea, surely a missing link.
In the mean time you CAN share Soundcloud with a dlna device from your android, using skifta, its a bit limited but does work well..... no if only they would add a last.fm channel.
Cheers for listening

I just wanted to add that I'm also looking for this. I want to send my Audible audiobook sound to some DLNA players (my squeezebox radios in every room). Audible doesn't support DLNA, so I need to redirect audio to some DLNA bridge app, A2DP style.
I also looked for this feature in my Android.
I too have been testing app after app, looking for the same functionality.

Background: I have a friend who owns an Android tablet and currently plays via DLNA/UPnP music on his TV. What I know: he currently can only play his own MP3s from his home network and he found a solution to play Youtube videos.
My problem: I wanted to listen to artists on Soundcloud or Spotify the last time I visited him. It seems that for Soundcloud there is an solution according to what noddymini has posted already

I'm going to recommend that to him. I can't test it myself, that is why I hope you might take a look at it, as well. But besides Skifta I also found a possible solution today. I know I know. Signing up as a new user and the first post is about an app recommendation looks suspicious. But it isn't. Here is what I found with Google (google. com/search?q=Android+Soundcloud+DLNA) and (play.google .com/store/search?q=UPnP+OR+DLNA+soundcloud+&c=apps) today (besides these comments here) is this app named Eye-C Taglists created by Eyecon, via a news article written by Joe Sirianni on talkandroid .com. I'm not allowed to post links as a new user, so I'm quoting their article and the descriptions from the Google Play Store:
talkandroid.com said:
Stream Playlists Of Videos, Pictures And Music To DLNA Devices With Eye-C Taglists
At any point, just push play, and the feed comes to life – on your phone, TV, Apple TV (even from an Android phone), PC and more.
Here’s How It Works:
Step 1 – Find videos, pictures and music you think are interesting in YouTube, Facebook, Picasa, and now SoundCloud.
Step 2 – Play your picks on your mobile phone, connected TV, Apple TV or other Airplay and DLNA devices.
Step 3 – Play content individually or as taglists. These lists can come from your friends, or they can come from users tagging a video with a certain term, like #startaparty.
Step 4 – Easily add another video, song, or picture to that list, by tagging it #startaparty – and watch your playlist change and grow as people interact with it.
So if you’ve been looking for an app to supply an endless stream of content from multiple users and platforms like YouTube, Picasa, Facebook and your own personal music playstist, Eye-C Taglists can deliver. The application will work on most Android devices but can also play on hansets supporting DLNA (wireless push content).

[QUOTE="Eyecon" app on Google Play Store]
Eyecon - The only app that allows you to search, preview and stream videos, music and photos from local DLNA/UPnP media servers and the internet, send it to your networked TV, audio device or UPnP renderer for a shared experience! Eyecon turns your Android device into your home media manager remote control.
[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE="Taglists by Eye-C" app on Google Play Store]
Eyecon - Called "automagical" by Gizmodo, Taglists™ lets you create and share playlists that mix free music, videos, and photos from multiple places, including Facebook, YouTube, Picasa, and SoundCloud.
- Create a Taglist by tagging songs, videos, and photos with the same hash-tag
- Share Taglists on Twitter and Facebook automatically, and let friends add to your playlist to build your own shared channel that others can watch on any computer
- Play Taglists on your Android phone or use Airplay or DLNA to play them on connected TV, A/V receivers, iPod docks, stereos, Apple TV and more.
Tech Specs (the geeky stuff)
Eye-C plays on your Android phone with an OS Version higher than 2.1. It also plays on other screens and speakers using both Airplay and DLNA standards, which means it can play back on devices including A/V receivers from Pioneer, Denon, Yamaha, Sony and more, connected TVs from Samsung, LG, and Panasonic, set top boxes including WD (Western Digital) and Popcorn Hour, as well as Xbox 360 (with Windows Media Player enabled. Make sure it's on and THEN look for other players. When it works, give us 5 stars – this was hard!).
Note: Taglists now supports Airport Express on Android versions greater than 2.1. It doesn't work well on some Android tablets or some HTC Android phones (Eris and Hero) – we're working hard to correct this, and we expect improvements in the next few weeks.

And there is an app called "Private Dancer" from 'Apps by Ken'.
Private Dancer said:
Private Dancer is a UPnP Media Renderer for Android. It is designed to be used on a device attached to speakers and power. Unlike other UPnP Android applications, Private Dancer is designed for always-on (headless) use. It contains no flashy UI and its only purpose is to provide a rock-solid, dependable wireless audio service for your home network.
What is a UPnP/DLNA Media Renderer?
The name is awkward but Private Dancer essentially provides wireless speakers for your network. It relies on the UPnP* protocol to communicate with other devices on the network. Many devices support this protocol and there are many Android apps available that can be used to send audio to Private Dancer.
What is meant by 'headless'?
While Private Dancer can be used on any Android device, it sports features that make it ideal for a tablet or unused Android phone that can be connected to speakers and power. The service can run on boot and aims to be always available, and generally once setup does not require direct user interaction.
How does it work?
Install the application and run it. Select startup options and enable the service. Once enabled, a notification appears and the UPnP/DLNA service is available on the network. Connect to the service via a supported UPnP client, such as Samsung's AllShare media application to play music from your phone or other UPnP device.
Feature List
-UPnP/DLNA Media Renderer
-Configurable to start automatically on boot (survives loss of power)
-Configurable to prevent device from entering sleep mode (always on)
-Configurable to allow or prevent clients from changing the volume
-Configurable the name of the service
Testing
Private Dancer has been tested with the following UPNP / DLNA players:
- 2Player v1.1.07 (Android)
- BubbleUPnP 1.3.1.2 (Android)
- UPnPlay 0.0.62 (Android)
- Samsung AllShare 2.6.114 (Android)

PS3 Media Server is a DLNA-compliant UPnP Media Server.
Originally written to support the PlayStation 3, PS3 Media Server has been expanded to support a range of other media renderers, including smartphones, televisions, music players and more - all of which are listed on the right.
Because it is written in Java, PS3 Media Server supports all major operating systems, with versions for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X.
The program streams or transcodes many different media formats with little or no configuration.
It is powered by MEncoder, FFmpeg, tsMuxeR and AviSynth, which combine to offer support for a wide range of media formats.
This is a mature project, with a number of plugins available for streaming from sources such as Grooveshark and SoundCloud as well as some on-demand TV providers.

Hi all. I just wanted to announce that I've started to develop a SoundCloud plugin. It is called SoundCloud4PMS or SoundCloud4PS3
I'm happy to announce the new version v0.3 which enables you to not only play your favorites but also to browse and listen SoundCloud in general.
I'm happy to announce the new version v0.4 which adds support for browsing and listening Sets and incorporates a fix due to a change of the SoundCloud API.
this plugin does work for me (at least for "favorites") using my android phone as renderer

Too bad.
With Taglists broken, there is no more solution to stream spotify / Soundcloud to Airplay !
I have found a thread on Android Support Forum :

Please comment / add your voice to make it change.
Or should we ask to XDa developpers to work on this feature for alternatives firmwares ?
I switched from Ipad2 to Nexus10 and I lost 50% of my tablet use! No (good, neither average) app for making music and no airplay. I tried everything but it's clearly impossible to stream audio output on android.
Google does nothing to support airplay and developers say that this is currently impossible because of Android software limitations. Pathetic.
There is only Cyanogen which can save us one day
as far as I know, streaming overall system sound linke Bluetooth is not possible on iphone. But more apps do: Spotify for iOS has airplay integrated
Android can do it but not without help. Vanilla builds (cm) just don't seem to have the native support that HTC and Samsung have. Both of which have native UPnP built-in
I'm currently using deezer, and 'd like to be able to stream the audio to a Raspberry Pi (airplay, upnp, whatever), but didn't find any possibilities

I'd love to be able to stream the audio from my Netflix via Airplay. I don't want to have to buy a Miracast box.
I also wish one day it is possible to stream to apple TV or Samsung smart TV

So I'm not the only one!
Currently I'm using Bubble UPnP to select and play music on my popcorn hour. But I'm looking for a way to stream all media-output to a dlna supported/wifi device. (for youtube, grooveshark and spotify)

[CLOSED][APP][4.0+][v2.0] Jams Music Player brings unofficial Google Play Music support!

Play Store link:
Jams Music Player is a beautiful, yet insanely powerful music player. Featuring a stunning Holo Cards theme (regular Holo theme also available), Jams has everything you could ever want or need in a music player!
Support for both phones and tablets.
Supports all the formats supported by Android (mp3, FLAC, AAC, ogg, etc.)
Unofficial GMusic support. All Access isn't available, I'm pretty sure the big record companies won't take it too well if I put it in. If you have your personal music collection uploaded onto Google though, this app can handle it
Limit your music library down to specific folders on your SD card (you can pick as many folders as you want).
Ability to save positions in individual tracks and resume from them later (useful for Audiobooks/Podcasts).
Organize your entire music collection into smaller sub-libraries. (Take a look at the imgur screenshot(s) to get a gist of what I mean).
Individual equalizer settings for each song. Say you set Song A to Pop and Song B to Rock. When you play Song A, Jams will automatically switch the equalizer to Pop. If you play Song B, Jams will switch to Rock. You can also batch apply equalizer settings to multiple songs by artist, album and genre.
The homscreen widget displays your current queue so you can easily browse through it without opening the app.
A-B Repeat mode. You can repeat a specific range of a song from point A to point B.
Displays embedded lyrics. I don't think I'll be adding lyrics from the Internet after what Sony did last summer to another music player.
Sort by album artist! This is for those of you who have large compilation albums.
Full blown file manager with copy, paste, move and delete functions.
Blacklist tracks, artists, and albums. This allows you to exclude individual tracks from your library without actually deleting the files.
Smart playlists (Top 25 Played Tracks, Top Rated, Recently Added, and Recently Played).
ID3 tag editor.
Crossfade.
Gapless playback.
Automatically fetches album art from the internet.
Customize the app with 4 different application themes and 9 different player colors.
Enqueue support with reorder, swipe to remove from queue, the basic stuff.
Scrobbling support.

Playlist Feature (Shoutcast, WinAmp, etc)

I'm not sure if this feature has been suggested, or if it already exists (being unable to find it), but I would really like the ability to build and manage playlists in MX Player.
I really do love how MX Player can run independent of playlists, jumping to the next file in a local folder (or shuffling if enabled), but sometimes I'm keen to watch or listen to a specific series of media, even web media and streams.
Now that WinAmp is dead, I do hope that some of the features found in WinAmp will find their way into MX Player. That includes:
Playlists
Shoutcast streams
More prominent Shuffle and Loop buttons (took me a long time to find this hidden feature).
Also, I would really love the ability to copy or bookmark the address of streaming media. For instance, if I choose MX Player to play a .pls or .m3u link, that media opens in MX Player, but I have no means of copying or bookmarking it to play again later.
Thanks bleu8888.

Already on the feature list from a long time ago. (high priority #8). Ctrl+F in the "feature requests" sticky post next time
Also if you are looking for a dedicated, feature-rich music app, I would recommend PowerAmp.
