[APP][2.2+] Shuttle Music Player

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

Issues with Sony Smart Watch 2 - Pebble does it better

Hi All
Just for my Sony Smart Watch 2 yesterday and feeling a little underwhelmed
I also have a Pebble which I feel at the moment is better.
Two things:
1. I cannot get the Sony to stay in control of Google Play music when its playing. It will do the volume but then when you go to forward a track it defaults to the Walkman app and starts that and plays the demo tracks. I have tried disabling the Walkman app but then the app on the watch just crashes.
2. The second and less important thing is Facebook integration. On the Pebble it will deal with two Facebook accounts being run on the phone. One in the Facebook app and the other Facebook Messenger. Both running different accounts. The Sony seems to only recognize the actual Facebook app.
Anyone have a solution to these?
Oh I just thought of a third, lack of watch faces! And especially watch faces giving a lot of information. The Pebble face I use has time, weather and phone battery status...
Well theres my rant!

How are you even controlling media from the watch at all? The media player app is missing in the Android app store at the moment. However, even on the Smartwatch 1 I believe the Sony official app was locked to the default media player on your device. Most brands of phone have their own take on the music player, such as Sony's Walkman app. The volume control is not related to the app as its the master output volume. But the track changes will be sent to a specific app, not the one that's currently playing music.

Now, there is an upgrade of Music Player Extras by Sony that allow to control Google Play Music correctly. You can set volume, play/pause song, go to next or prev song; but u can't see Artist or Title of the song from the smartwatch.

That's an improvement. Shame about no song details. Thanks for the heads up

Yeah I spotted it last night. I have an HTC phone and before yesterday night, there was no music player at all for the smartwatch 2 hence my previous comment. I have it now.

I too have an HTC phone (One - M7) and the Smartwatch 2. This Music Extras is the only one that work properly with Play Music until now.

Does anyone know if it's possible to disable or uninstall the New Events aggregator plugin. The one that's just a yellow circle with a number in the middle. I'm using WatchIt!, so don't think I need this New Events thing.

[Q] Smartwatch 2 + Music app + Nexus 5

Hi everyone,
I just got my Nexus 5 + KitKat and I tryed using the SW2, and everything seems ok, except the Music player as each time I try opening the app on the watch or starting playing music (with Google Music) on the phone, the Extra Smart Music app force closed.
(this app play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sonyericsson.extras.liveware.extension.music )
I was using the Sony SW1 with a 2.3 device and music was OK with Google Music.
Did some of you had any issue with this app ? Or any other solution. It was the one great thing I loved doing with the first watch!
Thanks in advance

Did you ever resolve this? I'm using the SW2 on a Nexus 5 and I tried 2 different music apps that both force close when I try to open them on my watch. Very annoying.

Nop did not find a way...
I will try to get it to Sony, but don't really know if they care that much for nexus 5 users right now...

Ok so I got it to work with Augmented SmartWatch

Poweramp is the app I've been using. Great developer support and even has it's own smartwatch 1/2 app. Plus if I remember correctly the developer is an XDA regular.

[APP][SW2] Media Control Extension

I think it's time we had a free one of these. This is a simple extension that sends generic audio control events to the phone.
Post here with any problems or feature requests. I will not be adding code to control specific apps.

it's work on poweramp
cool app :good::good::good::good::good:

For poweramp I really recommend the dedicated app ... is not that expensive and the results are great.

Something odd (it was said also in play store) with my note, n8000, Android 4.1.2. When pressing the icon "play", two differend players start: spotify and the default music player. I cannot figure how to fix this.

You need to find settings in your default player or in spotify to disable bluetooth controls. If neither player has this setting then I'm afraid you're out of luck. You could uninstall one of them. The app works generically like a BT headset that has built in controls.

Actually it starts three music apps (default, n7 and spotify =) and finally causing sw2 app to crash... don't find how to change bt controlling for those apps or is it even possible. otherwise seems to work faster and better than other controllers.

Yeah thanks for a cool media controller. Maybe in future updates the User can dictate which media application to be used. I see my soundcloud, Pandora, and Native Music App battling it out, lol. I fight for the User! Thanks again for the app.

Great app, lets me control the music from the shower :good:

Added premium features (in-app purchase):
-Widgets for all control functions
-Color customization
-Vibration on click

"Turn on the radio"?
Hi,
first: i really dig your app and the widgets. However i have run into the same problem as the others: all players open. Is there really no workaround? I haven't found any other music control widgets for sw2 + yours are the most straight-forward.
I have noticed however, that one button works correctly: the pause button. My observations from the button-mashing:
Play: opens all players
pause: pauses or unpauses the *active* player
next/previous song: starts all players, songs are changed on all players. "Turn on the radio." popup appears.
Samsung Note 2 + Sony SW2.
Cheers and thanks anyway

If it wasn't a bug, why would Google make it a paid option included in youtube red subscription? Windows phone doesnt even have an official app for youtube so developers have implented it into their apps long before it was a thing on Android. I havent had an iOS device but a friend of mine confirms that the official youtube app doesnt support background play either so he has to use either Safari or some third party app.

why not youtube red. i havent paid for youtube red since it started. they always offer 4 month of googlemusic which include youtube red. just switch to different email. i have 3 gmail and i have been rotating everytime one expires. it says is for new user but if uhavent use the same email for over 6 month it will let u reuse it

YouTube red is not available in most countries.

It doesn't work on latest update S8 stock ROM...EU
