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)

Sounds like your problem is with the files, not the players.

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 some audio files which are encoded as Flac on my sdcard. I have a custom ROM which allows me to play these with the standard Music Player app. However what this does not do is read the Flac Tags.
Has anyone found a solution to this. Thanks
I never could get my flac files to play without crashing the music player, but it seems to work on CM 5.0.5. Tags does not show on mine either though.
Are you on CM? Could it be a bug? He has an issue tracker on the google code page, so I guess you should try registering it there.
my tags seem to be loaded fine on CM rom

Am interested to know which CM ROM you are on please?
I have discovered if there is a cover.jpg image in the folder for the tracks of a cd, the cover art will be picked up from this. However loading the cover art in to the tag of each .flac file, no image is displayed.
In either case, each track comes up with "Unknown artist".
For information, I am using Enomther's TheOfficial Nexus1 - [3/9/2010] - v1.7.1
I love the Samsung Music Player. However, it is missing much of my album art. Now, I pride myself on how organized my iTunes is. I do not have any missing album artwork on my PC. Yet its not showing up on my phone. Can someone please give some advice on how to make it show up?
I find "Album Art Grabber" is a great app for grabbing missing album art.
It's free and works great. I highly recommend it.
Thak you so much. Exactly what i needed.

My guess is your files are AAC and not MP3 - most Android phones have problems with a AAC tags. If your MP3 files are missing album art you need to add the album art as tags and then phone will be happy. MP3tag is a great app for this.
yay for winamp on android
iTag is actually a better replacement for the Album Art Grabber.
Actually I much prefer using Windows Media Player and dragging and dropping what I want over. It takes all album art and even scrollable data and allows it to be played and show in the Captivates music player if the album actually has any . Nothing like having a full lossless wav file to listen to especially if you have some quality ear buds. My sons with their brand new I4 phones are jealous of how their Moms & mine look..and having the equalizer showing certainly adds to the wow factor..

I like to use Mediamonkey to embed album art into the mp3 file. It works well.

Yeah mp3tagger is what I use. Actually embeds album art into the mp3. The app also lets you edit the ID3 tags. Works great for 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 want a player that plays songs and the song's video player. Without separation of video and songs. If the song has a video he saw him, unless he noy has a movie he saw a picture or a picture of the player. The songs I download YouTubeבטל עריכות
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.
