[Q]music playback sutter - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Music playback on my tab(p3113 cm10) stutters. It happens after every 10-15 seconds even if the tab is idling. Had the same problem in stock too. Does anybody else suffer from the same problem?? Any solutions??

Do you know something , I thought it was just me. I did some mixes on my PC and I thought I must had done something wrong in my mix studio application. The only ROM its not happened on is Stock ICS. Not so much stutters kind of pauses / jumps for half a second. Its annoying isn't it !
The reason i thought it was my mistake as it happens on any Music player i use. Currently using Player Pro.
Same tab , different ROM and yes the mixes play fine on my laptop ?

May be happen in certain tracks which have a specific mp3 encoding so try another tracks
Try to delete data and cash of music app from setting/app
Try other music players from play store as google play music or android music player or 3
Try delete cash and dalvik cash from cwm
Put music in internal memory if in external and see may be card is defective or has a low read speed
Try app to measure cpu load while playing music may be odd app causing cpu load near 100% so stutter music if found uninstall it

I have tried everything on that list...Tried different roms, different music player, cpu is mostly idling and the memory card plays hd videos etc fine, so card shouldn't be the issue...

Just want to chime in and say that I have the exact same problem on my P3100. I'm currently running AOKP build 4.

could be a hardware problem if it;s d same on stock and cm10

Still present in CM10.1
Damn!
In AOKP Milestone 1 (Android 4.1.2) the problem was not there anymore. However, in the latest CM 10.1 Nightlies (Android 4.2.1), the music stuttering is back. I find that extremely weird.

Music pauses when taking a photo with camera app?

how do i stop this from happening? Its very annoying.
BTW I Am on Serendipity 6.4 ROM so I don't know if its cause of that?
It pauses the music because the picture gets saved, causing the media scanner to run, causing the phone to stop the process of accessing media files.
I don't really think there is a fix for it besides not listening to music while taking pics.
Actually, I'd like to correct my initial response... I can take pics and listen to music with no pausing at all. I'm on Cog 4.1, but it might be because I have all my music files saved to my external sd, and all my pictures saved to my internal sd, so I'm assuming that when I take a pic and it saves it, the media scanner only scans the internal sd, leaving the external alone. I'm also using the NRG media player if that makes a difference. So I'd say try saving some music to your external and there should also be an option in your music player to play music from a certain directory, so change the directory to the external sd> music and see if it works.

Yes it's about the player. I downloaded Winamp. It can play music while using the camera.

I have tried them all well not exactly but most the ones people recommend, none the less I had problems with the stock one doing the same thing. Sometimes it would play a song then sometimes it would just be silent, any way I tried the playerpro trial version same as full version just only last 5 days. any way it and dsp pack for it has proved to be the best so far plays anything, and had allot of sound adjustment. No I don't work for them lol just my 2 cents

PowerAmp continues to be my favorite. Though it seems like there's a bug related to scanning each time the app is launched that was causing me some issue. Disabled that option and everythings good.
I use playerpro, like the features, get missing album covers, no issues. The widget is awesome, try it, it is free. The app is well supported.

I have this exact problem. It isn't quite clipping but whenever there is a crescendo it only ramps up partway and then gets mushy as though there is a normalizer running. The consistency with which it does this has me thinking as though each frame in the MP3 is being decoded at a different level!

[Q] Google Play Music - Music Playback Error??

Hello,
I recently upgraded to ICS and am having trouble using Google's Music Player to play my music. Note that I'm trying to play music from my SD card; I have no music uploaded to Google's Music Player. It worked fine in Gingerbread.
For some reason any time I click on a song an error pops up saying "Music Playback Error - unable to play song" or something similar. Not to mention I have duplicate playlists (3 of the same playlist) in my Playlist list.
Anyone know of a fix for this? I like the layout of the default Music Player but should I just switch to another player? Any suggestions?

Im having the same problem. i tried formatting both sd cards but everytime i go back into google play the music is still there and is unplayable. in my other music player the same problem. im on the stock ics build unrooted. i also cleared cache in settings and in stock recovery as well. im about to root and flash a custom rom but would rather not have to do all that. any suggestions?

also i have not set up cloud storage so it should not be related to that either
Work around google play music
I found a work around- not a solution to the issue with the app...but I'm playing my music!
Open a web browser on your phone to music.google.com
When I do that all my music is right there. It plays fine. I guess its what the ipad/ipod/iphone peeps use to creep onto the Google music cloud. Ironic...
-Running a Droid X
I was told to move music to internal. Its running fine so far, but time will tell

Found a solution to my problem
Just wanted to chime in on how I found my fix, although it was for issues playing off the cloud, when I originally copied songs to SD then deleted off.
My Google Music would play music and gave me a playback error message. But I figured it was due to songs that I had originally copied to the external SD, and recently deleted. Playing those songs from the cloud gave me the error, while songs I never copied to SD played just fine.
So my thoughts were that the phone probably still thinks its playing those songs from the SD when it shouldn't because I deleted them.
My solution: turn off data and wifi, set google music to show only what was on device (because it still thinks songs were still stored in the phone), and deleted every single song one-by-one, a tedious process.
Then go manage apps and cleared app cache, uninstalled the app, reboot, reinstall, turn on wifi+data... and voila, those songs are playing off the cloud again.
If that didn't work then I would've factory reset.
I would think that this would work too for songs that were on SD card, but when I had problems with external SD music, I just cleared app cache, unmount SD and reboot.
Hope this helps for anyone else that runs into this problem.
Have u tried using another music app vincom jb mod has no music player I prefer player pro its very nice and has many options compared to stock

Clearing Google Play Music Cache and wiping Data would have been enough.
Solved my problem this way!
Google play error
I have a rooted Asus Nexus 7
I had a problem with Google play music
It would stop playing part way through songs
But I found a solution to the problem
Uninstall the factory installed app with titanium backup
Then go to Google app store and search for google play and reinstall the app
It now works fine for me it has been functioning for 3 days with out problems
As much as google support wanted me to unroot my device or they wouldn't help me with my issue I hope this helps everyone out
A small solution that worked for me.
I just received a error meesgae when I trued to listen to my music on android tablet. I found a solution that worked for me. I removed my SD card and then placed it back into my tablet. Then I went to setting>storage and set storage to SD card. I went back to Google music player to make sure my device was looking for music from the sd card. My music is saved on my device so of course there was no music to be found. Then I went back to storage settings and selected device for storage. Went back to music player there was all music and they all played fine.

Sound lag

So I'm running dirty unicorns with the bub a kernel, and I have experienced this on other cm10.1 ROMs, I'm just wondering if anyone else notices this, but when im playing music and tap on apps or the app launcher my music stops for a quick second and returns. Very annoying for those who listen to music while doing other stuff

Yeah, CyanogenMod 10.1 is buggy as hell, but 10 was much much worse for heavy music listeners. It started playing itself, repeating songs when you skip a track, and often refused to play songs. So don't go backwards, you'll be far worse off.

Use a player like PlayerPro + DSP Pack or Poweramp. They have their own audio decoding libraries, so they don't use the inbuilt Android audio decoder. As a result you experience no issues when playing music. I use PlayerPro & DSP Pack which also seems to use less battery than the inbuilt decoder even with LPA mode.
I always used Google Play Music when I had cyanogenmod. Apollo is a pile of ****e. Google Play Music made it slightly betterm but neither of them have anything on HTC's music player, that is the best by far.

Yeah f**k Apollo, check out PlayerPro, there's a 14 day trial. Make sure you get the DSP Pack also. Functionality wise I think it blows every other player away, and you could probably skin it to look like the Sense player too. But with 100x more features.

HELP! music library not updating!

Hello everyone, I have an issue with my nexus 5: when I copy a song to the music folder in my nexus 5, the music player doesn't refresh unless I rename the file (for example by removing and rewriting the same letter) or move it from my file manager. This occurs with google play music app as well as any other external player from play store.
Please help me figure out what I can do!!
You may not be giving the player enough time to scan for media, it does not occur instantaneously. First I have heard of this.
Try restarting the phone or clear the cache and wipe the data for the app.

Nothing changes if I clear the cache/data, instead if I reboot the phone the songs appear in the library.. but I don't think it's normal that everytime I transfer a song I have to reboot my phone! :/.. isn't there a way to manually refresh the library?
If you are just using music stored on your I would recommend a different player besides Google Play Music, but if you have music in the cloud/ device I would use that. Google PLay Music just acts strange I think for music that is on the phone, like sometimes it just doesn't recognize that it's on the phone if you have "all music selected" vs "on device". I recommend poweramp or if you are on a custom ROM apollo is pretty good and comes with a lot of ROMS. Back to the subject at hand I think that it has something to do with the mediascanner settings. Check those.
It's something to do with copying the files from PC using a wire. I WiFi my songs over using Es file explorer and have no issues with Play Music local play back.
