I haven't seen a voice control method for music players anywhere, but there's an app called 'Wave Control' that lets you control music using the proximity sensor. Here'a the link.

Thank Mate you would have thtought they would have done one by now

Play to remote device (Bravia in my case)

Hi, I'm using Galaxy R with CM10
I have this Sony Bravia Internet TV.
Some of you guys must be familiar with Windows 7 & 8's 'Play to' functionality.
U can right click on any media and select play to-> Bravia(Both connected to same wifi)
This feature is also there in S3's stock music and video players.
So I can hit play to from my PC or an S3 and it directly starts playing on my TV.
I need this feature on My SGR running CM10.
The SGS3 ported music player doesn't work on CM10
So I'm basically looking for an S3 music player port for CM10 or any 3rd party player that can give me this functionality!

This should be what you need.. Able to stream to many TVs

I already have iMediaShare but it wasn't good enough.
It just shows the media library on tv and I still have to browse through it and play using the tv remote.
PlayTo universal:

This app is somewhat better. Needs no tv remote interaction for playing/pausing. I'll keep digging for a more intuitive app though.
Thx a lot

Really?? That's strange coz I never needed the TV remote to seek play or pause videos... Anyways it always better to find new and better apps

That's really nice man.
I've heard iMediaShare is supposed to do that but it doesn't work so good for me.
Maybe it's something to do with the TV.
I flashed ICS again to see if I could find something and AllShare does this job really well!!

[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

for google music open preferred music apps to "register" then you should be able to skip.

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.

S5 Sound Alive Equalizer

Well, i recently flashed a zip from the forums which ported the music app from S5.
Upon flashing, i did not get the music app to be working, but the soundalive music equalizer seems to open, but fc when headphones are attached and music is played.
Can someone further investigate this and make this working, i think there is a chance, as the app itself opens.
P.s feel free to correct me if this has already been posted
Here are some screenshots for the app.

Well that's most likely why it doesn't work. Have you log the issue?

Manage Music?

Coming from iphone how do you manage your music on the S8? I know I can drag and drop but what music player do you use and also does it bring in your playlist?

the Play Music app is there by default works like a charm
Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

MusicBee. For Windows, it's the best, really. My library is in FLAC and it converts to MP3 on the fly.
You can choose to sync with specific playlists and it does send the playlists to the device. There's an option to send the content of the playlist(s) but not the playlist(s) themselves as well.

but how are you getting your music to the default music app? are you just copying to your sd card? If so how are you managing your playlist?

yes I open it via computer create a music folder and drop your music. Play Music will automatically recognize it

i hear ya it plays all your music. I dont use the data on it just listen to my music. So far best music player

You can go to the Galaxy App store and get the old "Samsung Music" app that was included before too.

I download all of the Subscription based music from Google Play locally so I can play it without internet. Love it.

Power amp all the way! It's about perfect.

I'm using iTunes app, as all my music is on the icloud and without downloading it all it was the easiest way to get at my music.
