I tried to play Plants vs zombies today and realized it doesn,t boot up if I'm listening to zune player in the background. Is that specific to that game or am I having an unrelated problem I'm not aware of?
Just for the record I have an LG Optimus 7.
I guess it doesn't depend on the phone model because I had the same problem with my Omnia 7 (forgot which app). I think there was a conflict between the zune player and the app/game -probably there can't be more than one audio source? Other tools worked fine so I guess it's app specific.
Gotcha. Well at least I know it's not a problem on my end. Kinda disappointing though since you could listen to your own audio while playing the game on other platforms. But oh well, I'll still enjoy the game (for the third time).

too annoying man, i love playing pro evo and listing to my mujsic, hoping i could dod the same. hope they fix it.
Some games (like the new edition of PAC-MAN and I think at least all XBox Live Games) ask, if you want your music stopped or playing in the background
Nah this one just won't boot up if your zune player is active. It will go to a dark screen then just come back to main screen.
And what happens if you pause the player, then start the game and then play music again?
Weird. Now it just works even with the zune player active.

What exactly do you mean by working? Does it even start while zune player is active or only with my tip to pause the player when starting the app?

I started the zune player and booted the game. No problem. I didn't even need to try your tip.
Sometimes strange things happen on this earth But nice that it works now

i am currently sitting on stock firmware and dont feel comfortable flashing my phone. I like that i can watch movies and videos on my device but windows media player is really laggy and jumps a lot. what other suggestions do you guys have for media players for 6.1 pro...
coreplayer is not free but its really great. plays divx better than divx player for wm. though it doesnt do tv out very well sadly. but its good enough to watch movies on my phone full framerate.
yea i have been looking at that. I just cant justify spending like 30 bucks for it. Thanks for the suggestion though.
roush611, consider for one moment getting comfortable flashing, it is very fun! I was very hesitant too but now I flash weekly!
On to your question...I wonder if S2P would remedy the issues you would are having? It uses WMP as it's 'engine' but maybe it would solve these issues.
Search for TCMP, free version of Core Player.
well i flashed my g1 and it was cool for a bit but then i could never get it back to stock fimware. So i dont really wanna mess with that again.
I tried to download TCMP but it just crashes everytime i open it... I am kinda at a loss.
You can try Kinoma play free version. It worked wonderfully on mine, and s2p was previously mentioned by someone. Nitrogen is another if the other 2 dont wor for you but kinoma imorts your media library while the other 2 dont.
The free version of kinoma play doesnt let you use the equalizer but it was never a problem for me because htc includeds audio booster with its phones.
You could try Pocket Player http://www.conduits.com/products/player/
I have only used it for podcast and audio myself but I'm very impressed with it. You should be able to download a 30 free trial version.
I've started a thread about this, but Pocket Player is probably the best player out there. However, every app that I've found does one thing really good, and another important thing really poorly. YMMV, though.
Search for "TCPMP Tech1 PRO7 Digital Play HD StandAlone Version.cab". It's really great. It does flash videos better than anything I've tried. I think the forum is everythingdiamond.info, or something like that. Read and follow the setup info.
Hi Guys,
I'm looking for some app to play mp3 songs on my X10.Have Poweramp full version but it gives an error "Too many falied files,playing will now stop" if the mp3 file is not playable.
It then has to be reinstalled to play any songs further.
The only reason I sticked it was due to its awesome equalizer which coupled with good earphones produced excellent music.
I have also tried Music Player Pro-full version and winamp but lack of equalizer & punchy sound makes them dud
Any suggestions please?
PowerAMP
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
MIUI music player makes the good equalizer.

My suggestion:
do NOT play corrupted files and stick with PowerAMP. I've tried almost every music player available for Android and in the end I've bought PowerAMP. I need good equlizer as well and PowerAmp is just the best (not only in terms of equalizer).
Btw.: I've been using it for quite a while and the problem you mentioned in 1st post occures when you use cracked version of it. I've installed cracked version to try it before I decided to buy it and it gave me that error. I've never encountered it since I've bought it. So if you don't have it bought, just do it. It really worth that money. If you have, make sure you're using the original version available on Market. Eventually, you can try to send me that song causing the error and I will try to play it on my device to see what happens
as borecz1 said, i have tried EVERYTHING out there!! and since i have been moding my phone and re-flashing roms so much latley i am still on the "trial" version, but intend to but the app once i've finished tinkering!
What i would dearly love (dev's..!!) is an app that can access the internal EQ settings on my x10i. I have seen a few that you can use with your PC, but i'm blown if i know what numbers to put into each box.
An app with access to the internal EQ, perhaps with a preset or 2 would be my very next purchase!!!

MIUI - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=913166
So I am liking my Samsung Galaxy II more and more every day but one thing that drives me nuts is the inability to find a suitable app that willy play audiobooks at variable speeds.
I finally found a program that works for most podcasts. "Pocket Casts" with Presto player for viarable speed control.
There is on program call Xspeedplayer that works for playing audiobook files but there is no way to jump to different parts of the audiotrack. Say for example I listed to the book for 1hr going to and from home then read a little bit on my kindle well there is no way to jump ahead to where my reading left off.
So if anyone knows of a good audio player that works for audiobooks that allows for variable speed I would love to hear about it.
TIA
Hopefully if enough people star this Android issue Google will add it as a feature to Android :laugh:
There is Nova Player which is mentioned in that thread which looks reasonably promising,
alternately Audio Speed Changer.
Or perhaps SFT AudioPlayer might work but not sure how good playback is?

I have been very happy with Presto Sound Library Open Beta - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aocate.presto&hl=en
which works well with Akimbo Audiobook Player - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.akimbo.abp
and Pocket Casts - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=au.com.shiftyjelly.pocketcasts
So there is a solution but it will cost you over $10 I agree it should be included free with the OS like iPhone etc.

@shortbus - I have Presto but disappointed that the app hasn't been updated in a while, as there is bug where if I get a phone call while listening to Pocket Casts / Presto, it doesn't gracefully hand over the audio to the phone app, and have to force-close it after the phone call ended. Running Android 4.1.2 Jellybean on a GNex. Curious if you have the same issue - cheers.

No problems here from like what you describe. I have had the program freeze on my but I am not sure if that is Presto or the Pocket casts program. I am running Jedi Mind Trick.

But it has worked on all different builds and other programs.
Hope you figure out why it is happening.
Hi all,
I'm the developer of Shuttle Music Player (formerly AMP).
Shuttle is a lightweight, simple & elegant music player for Android. It's based on the AOSP Music Player, with inspiration from the previous Google Play and the current Google Now.
Shuttle includes a built in equalizer, gapless playback (4.0+), queue support playlists, highly customizable widgets, sleep timer, scrobbling, dashclock support and more.
Shuttle has been on the Play Store for almost 6 months now, and is nearing 50.000 downloads!

Hey man, I love your app. Is the only player that works correctly on my phone :victory:.
Do you think there's a possibility to add ReplayGain support? I have some music that makes use of it and I can't enjoy them correctly because lack of that function.
I think it is Apple app when I see the shuttle

Thanks for the compliments, glad you're enjoying it. Replay gain is beyond the scope of Shuttle for now.. Since I use the Android API's for media playback, and there is no inherent support for replay gain.. So, it's not planned at this stage, sorry.

What a pity... Still the best player, though.
Today installed Shuttle+. Like it very much,nice UI.Only issue I have : While playing music, the EQ doesn't open and the app force closes.
After noticing this ,in CWM recovery I wiped cache,wiped Dalvik cache and fixed permissions on my leaked 4.2.2 Samsung S3 ROM. Problem persists.Can open EQ when there's no music playing,works fine then.
Imo EQ should be editable when playing music,as in Google Play Music.
Any thoughts and/or advice on this ?
Necro-post! Hopefully the dev is still around?
I'm switching from Google Play Music to Shuttle due to the fact that I don't like the way GPM behaves in 4.4.4 when I swipe it from the Recent Tasks (it stops playback, which is mind-boggling nonsense for me).
Is there any way to Import the playlists I have on GPM into Shuttle?
It would be nice to have the apk available as an attachment on the first post or a link directly to apk, instead of playstore.

I didn't know about his community. I knew the app was actively developed, but when I wondered if he was still around I mostly meant I was wondering if he was around here on XDA forums. Apparently he isn't though.
Hey there, I want to start off by saying I love your app - truly a marvel of development. I plan on buying Shuttle+, but before I do I have a couple of questions:
1. What exactly does it mean when it says I can edit "some" tags? I seem to have an issue where the files I have added to my phone (OnePlus 2) that are of the same album do not go together, but instead create 2 or 3 separate albums. I do not have this issue with my iPod, and believe it is a tagging issue but I can't find any differences in the files themselves. Also will I be able to add or change artwork?
2. I have this issue where I am seeing double. But when I go to settings > apps > all, there is no "media store", but rather "media storage". Are these the same thing? Again, I am using OnePlus 2.
Thanks
Hi !! Just got Shuttle+ from the play store. I was looking for a nice alternative to HTC stock player (discontinued on the HTC10) and I found your feature-packed app wonderful ! Built in EQ is a great plus. Keep up the good work, glad to contribute by getting the pro version !
One feature I really liked from another app I tried (don't remember the name) is the possibility to blur the album cover on the lockscreen. Makes for a beautiful look while listening to music !
Thanks again
Hi Friends
I have quation.
Which depends on the video(only video sound) plays in the background like to GPS,menu,settings,like playing radio,music.
My device is a Erisin ES9782A

You want a video player that you can still hear while using other apps, right? Try MX Player: https://www.xda-developers.com/best-of-xda-mx-player/
In the settings there are options for background play which keep the video going even when you can't see it. :highfive:
Let me know if this is what you're after and I can close the thread.

I wouldn't know, sorry. It could just be that it's not powerful enough to cope with what you're trying to do.
I suggest asking in here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android-auto/android-head-units/generic-android-headunit-erisin-es8990a-t3112976
This is a thread about the head unit and there are people posting in it who actually owned it. You're more likely to get a detailed answer there.
