PowerAMP v2.0 (Release Candidate) --- new 1/11/11
http://www.box.net/shared/ig910kjeotx6iyyagl1c
Changelog:
Release Candidate:
- enabled deletion
- updated musiXmatch plugin
- stability improvements (may help with stability on few custom ROMs as well)
Full Changelog (from v1.4):
Audio Engine:
- Direct Volume Control for new Android 2.3+ sound system where available.
Direct Volume Control results in volume level equal (or higher with positive preamp) to stock player, but with the Equalizer/Tone enabled
- re-tuned equalizer/tone controls for Direct Volume Control (gives a larger range of distortion-free sound, deeper basses)
- output limiter. Ensures distortion-free sound even on extreme equalizer/tone amplification levels
- support for .mpc (sv7/sv8), .aif/.aiff
- replay gain support for all supported formats which support Replay Gain (mp3, mp4/m4a, flac, ape, wv, tta, ogg, mpc) (most effective with Direct Volume Control)
- stereo expansion effect (Stereo X)
- mix-to-mono, balance
Library/Folders:
- custom complete Library/Media Scanner implementation, 10x-100x scan speed comparing to system library tag scanner, 1000 songs scanned in 15-30sec (depends on phone/sd card)
- Music Folder hierarchical selection. PowerAMP scans only the folders selected in Settings => Music Folders\
- permanent shuffle. Shuffle session is stored in database and survive PowerAMP restart, phone reboots etc.
- Menu => List Opts for almost each Folder/Library list with the sorting, view mode, and other per-list options
- playlist unification, no more Folders vs Library playlists
- m3u/m3u8, pls, wpl playlist file formats support. Sync'ed playlists - any change to playlist is written back to m3u/m3u8, pls, wpl files\n

- full-library and folders search
- history of songs played and other smart playlists (Most Played, Top Rated, Recently Played, Recently Added. Each list can be set to be sorted in Reverse. Enable these lists via
Menu => Lists Opts in Library)
- rating system. PowerAMP 2.0 stores ratings in own database only. Later versions will also sync ratings back to track tags\n
- option not to add duplicates to playlist
- auto-advance options moved from Settings to Advance List repeat mode
- new Shuffle modes: shuffle songs then lists; shuffle lists, songs in order
- home screen playlist shortcut support
- voice search support ("Listen to")

Quick heads up about this update.
FINALLY my SGSII can read genre tags properly (previously EVERY player took its tag reading from the systems way of reading tags, resulting in genre tags being messed up which really bugs me as I predominantly like to listen by shuffling a genre! FLAC tags also now work properly).
More details here: AndroidNZ: PowerAMP 2.0 Beta Quietly Released

Made a video for curious people who haven't yet got PowerAMP:

Love the new design. Thanx for the heads up..

still caches to sd though.I'm sticking with playerpro since it doesn't suck up my sd card

Miss the 4x1 widget way too much. Cant use this. :/
-My life is a shooting range, people never change-

Will existing owners have to re-buy?

In previous version, I can play an album/artist/playlist directly. Now I have to queue it first. Is there a simple way?

beautiful application, but there are still missing several features including widgets

It's a beta folks, other widget sizes are coming, no worries there.
@Blakamin: It will recognise your existing license.

I like the new formats in portrait but I think landscape was a better fit in the previous release format.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App

I'm not entirely convinced I like the new landscape either, we should really give that feedback to the dev since this is a beta!

Been using poweramp since galaxy s1 came out and think it's by far the best.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App

About 2 times out of 3, when I disconnect my bluetooth device, PowerAmp will pause briefly, then start playing the music again from the phone speaker. I've unticked the "resume when headset reconnected" option which seemed to help but not completely fix the issue.
Any ideas?

if anyone's worried about widgets, use a resizer. I use go launcher ex and resized it to where only the player controls are shown.

Thanks. I had no clue this beta was out. Big fan of poweramp...use it daily. This looks good.

[APP][3.2+] BullseyeDroid Music Player

Hello!
I recently bought an android tablet and as I use a personal music player (inspired by Amarok) on PC I decided to port it to Android.
I just finished a first test version without much polish and I'd appreciate some feedbacks and suggestions especially on the behavior on phones devices as I built it with tablet in mind.
Features :
- Advanced queues management
- Flag system that allow to do actions at the end of some tracks : stop playback, jump to another queue, etc...
- Configurable library view
- Last.fm scrobbling with offline cache support
- Static & dynamic playlists
- Tags edition
- Artists & Albums covers automatic download
I take features requests.
The app is available on Google Play, named BullseyeDroid (can't post outside link)
Thanks!

I did not find it in market, is it still available

Is there any reason it is 3.2+?
You are losing quite a bit of a market.

Yes there are reasons. As I targeted tablets I made heavy use of the new API (Fragments, ActionBar, etc...)
It's not that it can't be done with previous APIs but it would be tricky and far less natural. I don't think I would have done it in the first place if the API wasn't attractive.

the free version has ads....including it in the rom would then be unethical............
can u upload a free lite version with advanced features such as equalizer stripped off...

Could you please make it so on startup (or settings) it asks you where all your music is? So it doesn't have to scan and what not. This is useful for us people with the media scanner off. That would make it complete.

its wonderful
only thing i would want is a lyrics viewer when i tap on the artwork
but it still is great

Any chance for chromecast audio & standard chromecast?

Chromecast support is definitely something I want to look at! Should be very possible to implement, but the focus is to first implement all missing features I want to implement, and meanwhile make the app stable.
Anyway stay tuned for updates as I will probably implement what is fastest to implement AND mostrequested first.

Of course I'll support something like this, I bought the plus right away without testing.
Two things I'd like more than anything in every music player there is, that's
10 band graphics EQ
Be able to choose folder play, today you got artist, album, tracks
And want/wish
CHROMECAST MUSIC & or CHROMECAST STANDARD support. And if you can also support for Apple wireless music/video standard(don't remember it's name).
Thanks for great app idea, it's a good looking music player, I always use power amp, since I was in it from the beginning. BUT NOW IM looking for something more light designed and good with good quality, and options and so on, and you'll fit that description very well. Good luck in future development.
Edit...
Also put an X to be able to quit application in notifications drawer(pull down).

Folder play is in there, but you have to enable it in the settings
It needs a bit of work, I know. But let me hear what you don't like about it.
I also answered you a bit on G+
Again, thanks for the support and stay tuned for an update later this week!

Just released an update which finally adds playlist support!
Here is an image from the Trackpicker-Screen
Expect some more, smaller updates in the coming days!
Cheers!

Got a bunch of "error scanning file" toast notifications when adding my music directory. However, the songs with errors seem to still show up in the app. Here's a log. Using Android 7.0 on OnePlus 3.
Edit: The toast notifications pop up again upon rebooting the device. I can provide a log after rebooting if you'd like.

@FroyoShark : Re-Popping up is because of automatic rescan.
I'll have a look at it!
Meanwhile, try to retag your mp3 files with something like Picard
It's worth noting that settings to disable to auto-rescan as well as an alternative scanning method are basically finished, just need to implement them into the UI and push an update
Stay tuned.

v0.13.5 is now live with:
- Bugfixes
- Improvements to playlists
- More supported filetypes for embedded lyrics
- Properly materialized "AlbumDetail"-Screen
Edit:
v0.14.0 is live wit:
- tag-editor which supports lyrics
Edit2:
v0.15.0 is live with:
- translucent skin supporting dark and light flavors
screen:
Edit:
A lot of work has been done over the weekend up to this very moment
and we've actually just pushed RC2 containing a boatload of fixes.
Maybe one or another hidden gem has also made it in this version, you might wanna look out for that
As of now, my personal wishlist for a v1.0 is pretty much done and am now focusing on feature requests (so bring 'em!) and fixes.
Of course, a few things on my list are not in yet, and will be developed over time.

We now are officially released!
A lot of fixing and implementing feedback from reddit (of all places...) was done and we hope it's enough for a 1.0 release
The 1.1 version is already in planning, decoupling completely from androids own media library, adding in smart playlists, adding in sorting options and all that good stuff!
A little update on Chromecast support: I don't personally own a chromecast, heck I don't even own a TV and there seem to be no working emulators out there... So spending 40 Bucks, just to develop a single feature, isn't probably worth it, sorry
If you wan't to get the newest features first, consider joining beta-testing! You can opt-in and opt-out at any time using this link.
And last but no least here are 10 gift-codes exclusive to XDA
ALL OF THEM ARE USED BY NOW!

Awesome music player and just used one of the codes to get the plus thanks!! Looking forward to the playlist add-on so I can use the playlist already on my phone. Anyways keep up the good work!!
Sent from my Redmi Note 3 using Tapatalk

Used a code (second last). Thanks for that!
Looks promising though it stutters sometimes when I change screens (Nexus 5x Nougat) in the app.

Just saw this and downloaded it, liking it a lot but it isn't detecting my existing playlists - is that a bug or a not implemented feature?

Is there away to remove the message i get everytime I open the app of "error scanning file"
Sent from my Redmi Note 3 using Tapatalk

This is an excellent player,with just the things needed!
But:An essential feature that is missing is the option to make the player open up on startup directly on the ''directory'' category (or any of the others),with the last used folder that you listened too already in place.Like making the player remembering your last folder used.
It is very inconvenient having to navigate all the way from the parent directory to lets say an album's folder 10 folders deep in file structure.
Please fix this!Thanks for the player!

It's not yet implemented. You can expect a playlist importer / exporter and autodetecting playlists, as well as smart playlists, in the coming weeks.

I will look at this when I provide the ability to customize the library-tabs. Before that, the current library system gets an overhaul, which is then optionally completely independent of androids media scanner.
Should take a while but not all too long.

i hope you implement this soon..!The player is somehow inconvenient for people that only use directory view,like me.
Each time i open the player i have to:
1)open the app
2)scroll the default track's artwork down so i can reach the list views
3)tap on ''directories''
4)tap to ''device strorage''
5)scroll all the way down my files till i find the folder ''music''
6)scroll to find the category i was listening to
7)find the folder i want
8)scroll to find the track
9)press play.
You see,for people like me the thing that the player can't remember the ''directories'' last used folder or that it doesn t have the option to choose a default folder that the directories view open up to when you enter ''directories'' or even,like many players do,have the app open up directly inside the last folder you used,makes this player so much trouble.
Other than that the player is excellent,but you need to implement these options soon before exiting beta.

@korekore1
No, you don't have to go through all those steps, just tap the song info area (track name , artist name, album name) and it will bring you right back to the last folder, but that's more or less explained in the tutorial. (...Guess the wording needs to be clearer...)
With that beeing said, I have an update for the beta-branch planned for today-ish which has the ability to reorder any tab in the library and all that good stuff
Edit: It is live for beta users and if all goes well it should soon be pushed to everyone
Also, if the directory tab is in one of the first two spots, it will open directly to the last directory played from
Edit2:
Version 1.1.0 is now live for everyone featuring smart playlists, customizable tabs, a share functionality and of course fixes.
I feel like this is the most stable release as of yet and realize that this should've probably been 1.0...

Really nice app, used it for a while on my OP3 just some minor bugs at the beginning.
Will there be an equalizer where you can change the volume of the headphones?
Like giving the left one more volume than the right? Could be useful for people with messed up headphones.

A balance option.
Probably not, depends on how many people are asking for it.
Stuff that is on my ToDo-list however is:
Playlist import / export
Converting the artist list to have cards with artist images (similar to the album list)
Adding context-menus in directory view
"Now Playing" themes
More widgets
Sorting options for lists
Work on improving the visualizer

[APP][TimberX] Material theme music player written in Kotlin+Architecture components

Around 6 months back, I decided to completely rewrite my Timber music player and today I have published the new version, TimberX.
https://github.com/naman14/TimberX
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.naman14.timberx
TimberX is built with latest development tools and design patterns.
- Written in Kotlin
- Android Architecture Components (ViewModels, Livedata, Room)
- Databinding
TimberX works across all devices including
- Phones
- Android Wear
- Android Auto
- Chromecast and other cast devices
- Google Assistant
I know that there are lots of music players out there but I always wanted to rewrite my original music player in Kotlin and properly explore the capabilities of the MediaSession APIs in Android. This new version is built on a single MediaBrowserService that is used by all connecting clients.
Looking forward to the feedback on the architecture of the app and contributions are welcome. Thanks!
The app on play store is paid, exactly same version is available on Github release for free and is also attached here

Looks really good so far! I bought the paid version because the UI is so pretty. How do you get into the extra options though? I can't find an actual settings button. Also on the player screen the 3 dot menu button on the top right is unresponsive on my Pixel 2 Android 9

Thanks for purchasing! There is no settings menu as such in the app currently. Will fix the overflow menu on player screen

looks amazing and finally music player with material design v2 , thanks , i hope you ll update it regularly

Yes! Have already started working on adding dark mode

Awesome. Can't wait to see where it goes. Looks so good already. ?

I have a few questions regarding the app's features:
- Will the upcoming dark mode come as dark grey or black?
- Any chance for opus support?
- How do lyrics work?
Other than that it's coming along. Here are some things I noticed:
- App crashes when viewing albums on 5.1.1 (Stock LG)
- FLAC, m4a, wma, and even OGG work
- "Up next", very useful for shuffle or long playlists
- Spacious UI for the now playing screen
- Seekbar starts at the end of the line. Timestamp works otherwise
- Responsive, no stuttering

I have a few questions regarding the app's features:
- Will the upcoming dark mode come as dark grey or black?
- Any chance for opus support?

- Depends on the implementation that will be followed, the last time I added theme engine to Timber, there was too much theming sepcific code throughout the app. I want to avoid that this time. If I am able to find a clean way to implement dark mode then yeah, there will be more combinations available.
- Opus support is not planned currently
- Lyrics are fetched from a public api- makeitpersonal.co
Lyrics embedded in the mp3 file will be parsed and displayed in next release.
Will check the crash on album details. Thanks for the detailed feedback.

Can u please increse the size of album art. its looks too small. and looks uglish

Can you please attach a screenshot and confirm your device, I think this may be happening on low resolution devices.

If you have a smartwatch, then start playing any song with your phone and then you can swipe left on the now playing notification in your watch to access controls and swipe left again to access you whole music library on the watch.

Oh, i had hoped for a smartwatch app as well. Anyway, the above mentioned things work with the default music player as well.

Hey, so how do I use it on Google Assistant? I can't even use it because it doesn't recognize the app's name.
I also found a bug: The song progress bar and time don't reset when the song ends.
Also I'd like the ability to use my own time-stamped lyrics, and to be able to customize the player more.
This app is interesting nonetheless!

Hi! Can you check if you are able to control playback using Assistant (try saying play song/pause song/next song when you are using Timber), or does assistant doesn't work at all?
Already noted the progressbar bug, more customisability will be soon be added in future releases.
