Hello members of XDA, Im new so forgive me if I post this in the wrong area.
im looking to develop a certain Android app, essentially, its a media player that is able to recognize samples of a song, isolate it, and allow you to search for other songs that sample it.
I have NO idea what I would need for this, I figure it would have to be a database of some sort along with a script or code in the app that can tag it, the problem is I know very little on how MP3s are built or how I can possibly do this without having the program actually look through the song itself. Also, it would have to be able to function as a off-line media player (granted without the sampling feature).
Thanks for any help
Just to clarify, its not like how Shazam hears a song and gives you the name, it would work based on some sort of tagging system.
Start off by using/understanding SoundHound as a base and progress from there...SoundHound has the ability to recognise, identify and tag a (incl lyrics) part of any song but it uses an online DB as reference. You then have the option to purchase that song from Amazon (or other online music store) or the entire album blah blah...so IMHO, this is a good place to start.
I've been an android devotee since I got my HTC Desire, but the one thing that annoys me about android is that yes, there are tons of music player apps out there that play music, Player Pro being my current favourite... there doesn't seem to be any of them out there that support smart playlists that can make use of standard playlists.
I have a playlist on my ipod that uses a 2 standard playlists as the music source and simply plays the songs that haven't been played in the past 3 days in random order.
Android music players do support smart playlists, but nothing that can replicate the setup on my iPod...
One music player that I haven't heard talked about much but is good will be tomahawk music player,its still in development though check it out when you have the time
You can use "BlackPlayer" from Google play.

"BlackPlayer" has nice playlist options and the "PiPlayer" has smart playlists... Enjoy

PlayerPro by far is the most complete and advanced when it comes to smart playlists. I have been using it for over two years (have over 50 smart playlists ). Copy paste below the play store description:
"Music metadata, statistics and smart playlists: Recently added, Top rated, Most/Recently/Least played. Build additional smart playlists using the smart playlist editor and the many different criteria it offers: title, album artist, composer, grouping, genre, comment, duration, year, date added/modified, BPM, rating, play count, skip count, last played, and file path."
Can anyone tell me if the gear s3 is able to stream Google play music? Or is compatible with the Google play music app??
I think it should be working on any default music player on device, as mine can control the spotify without any problems
I can control the music from my phone while it's playing music via Google play but I don't think it can stream directly to the watch. I was glad it's able to do that at the least. You can play, pause, and skip songs, view the song list, and even control the volume.
Spotify will be released mid December for our watches

I have a personal beef with Spotify. (Somebody hacked my account. They can restore playlists, but not my "Liked or Added" music. Apparently those aren't playlists. Long story short I lost about a year and a half of collected music. So yeah....
Anybody know if there is word or intent to bring GPM to the S3? It's nice to at least be able to control the music with our watch when it's playing from the phone, but, would be REALLY nice if I could just leave the phone at home and stream GPM while out and about. Kind of why I got the LTE variant in the first place.
Furthermore, does anybody know if spotify and potentially GPM, will use up the data allotment or will that also fall under tmobiles free music streaming thing?

I would love to know the same, I just got the subscription for Google play music and don't want to be tied down to just Spotify.
And with the data, my plan on T-Mobile is unlimited everything, for just $5 more than the 500mb plan. I'm not savvy on their plan details as I have only been a customer since Wednesday.
I can control Play Music from my watch with the music playing through my phone speaker. I haven't tried using the watch speaker.
Same issur: would like to take my gpm playlist standalone on the s3 for workout amd peave the phone at home. Until now not possible. Except maybe by physically downloading the playlust to sd card of the phone (i think there are apps for this) and then transfer to s3 via gear companion app... Complicated.
Come on guys - its never going to happen. This isn't like iOS where there's a huge market lead. And without an api there's no way for someone else to code it as well.

THere is an API that at least someone knows, you can download any song in your library (even subscription songs) using an app on the play store called Cloud Music Importer. If you can view your library, and download the songs, its got an api.

Can you select a playlist from your watch? I like this feature on my Android wear device and it would be nice if the Gear also can do that.

Here's a screenshot of what it can do. The phone looking icon changes audio source from phone to watch, and the open app option allows​ you to see the list of songs in your current playlist. I don't see any option for selecting the playlist though, its always showed me the last song that I've streamed.

Okay thank you
Download the app Music Mate to your phone. It lets you get the songs off of Google music as standard MP3 files. You can then Port them to your phone.
Music Mate is free for a few songs and then there's a fairly low purchase price for unlimited downloads.
Yes Gear S3 Streams Google play Music
YES -- absolutely -- by default
Is there a way to save downloaded music from Google Play Music to the Gear S3?

How do you then get the music onto the watch?
My GWA2 only has an option to 'automatically sync' in the Gear app. The problem with this is it brings over all the voice messages from my Telegram group chats, and also the tracks I use to sleep to (10 hours of white noise) which basically fills the watch up immediately.

You no longer have to strain to load all the music you need to get you through your week into each and every android device to your name. You probably already know about online streaming services that offer you infinite playlists from all your favorite artists from around the world. With online streaming, you can choose to listen to anything you like instantly- from the newest hits to timeless classics. But did you also know that there are certain apps that not only allow you to stream from such sites but also save you music for later use in offline mode. Here you will find list of those apps.
