No offense, but I think your app needs some work on having a more native look&feel :

http://developer.android.com/design/patterns/actionbar.html
If you wish, you can use either ActionBarSherlock or the support library to have a native action bar .

Im now just want test the Chromecast part, i will change the looking after that works. Thx for the suggestions!

Google launches Music Store today!

Got this in the email today:
Dear Music Beta user,
We're excited to announce that Music Beta by Google is officially graduating from beta today! Google Music will remain a free service, and you can continue to store up to 20,000 songs in your personal music library. Please see the revised Terms of Service for this product update.
Google Music also comes with a number of new features. We've launched a new music store on Android Market that works seamlessly with Google Music. Shop on the web or your Android device for millions of tracks and hundreds of free songs for your music library. All of your purchases are automatically stored on Google Music for free (and don't count toward your 20,000 song limit). You can even share a free full play of any purchase with your friends on Google+.
For Google Music users with Android phones and tablets running version 2.2+, you will automatically receive an updated version of Android Market with the music store over the next few days. You should also receive a system notification with the Music app update sometime today, but you can always download it immediately.
--
So I checked it out, and they are offering a free single everyday, better than the iTMS! Your Market app should update within the next few days with this new store. In the meantime:

That's awesome news. I've been waiting for this for a while. I wonder if it will ever be as popular as iTunes.
I live in Australia and I can't find Google music App on the market.
Thanks OP, great stuff! Been waiting to try Google Music as i want my collection stored in the cloud and accessable from anywhere.
Perhaps someone could tell me how you initially upload your songs? Presumably you can do it from the PC?
Thanks for the news! That's good stuff. Finally an alternative to you-know-who.

That's how it worked in Beta. You choose which folders to upload and you're good to go. The application on the pc checked those folders for new additions and uploaded those as needed

I don't like how the music app does not let me download cloud music to my internal storage. There is absolutely no option to set the download folder or tell it which SD card to use.
However I will still use it since Zune just stole $10 from me duebto the lack of a cloud component like Amazon and Google. No more Zune and No more iTunes. If you wanna sell to me you better putnit in a music locker where I can download it infinite tines or stream it from anywhere.

YouTube plugin for Encore Music [BETA]

Hey everyone,
I've just published the YouTube plug-in for Encore Music, here on XDA Labs. If you don't know what XDA Labs is, check http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/labs-t3241866
This plug-in allows you to listen, download and add to playlists YouTube videos in Encore Music.
This plug-in requires the base app, Encore Music, to work.
- Listen to your favorite songs for free on YouTube, without advertisement, no subscription required
- Search through the full YouTube library from the Encore Music search
- Browse uploaders and channels like artist and albums
- Save bandwidth by loading your YouTube playlists offline. Save storage space also as only the audio track will be stored!
- Change your YouTube playlists directly from the app
THIS PLUGIN IS STILL IN BETA but I'll be on the watch out for any bug or issue you might encounter. I don't want the Google Play Music story happen again Make sure to reach me either here on this topic, or in PM, or by e-mail at apps at xplod dot fr.
Enjoy your music!

Unfortunately this plug-in can't be added to the Play Store (for the obvious "Google will kick it in mere minutes" reason), which means we can't take advantage of the Play Store features.
Would there be any payment method other than PayPal that'd work for you?
I am chinese user I guess what I can do is use alipay(you even may not hear about that...).
beside that, i would like suggest add a zombie app in appstore and with payment, and update through xdalab, or i pm you play gift card.

translated, hope can add language support
Looks promising! But it seems like I am to stupid to find the download button.
EDIT: The playlist I created was for some reason a mixed, not a YouTube only playlist. Downloading a playlist created with YouTube directly works.
Is there a way to import a playlist already on my YouTube account? I can't seem to find that option.
:crying:
How can i get this app?
thank you !!!!
Hello! This is a great plugin but I have a problem: whenever I enter a search query and I am on cellular data connection it just keeps searching, offering no results. Is anybody experiencing the same?
i wish it has been free,would like to try it out.(I am not using any credit cards personally that's why ) Btw i checked the spotify plugin,in spotify i login using my facebook account and do not worry about the user name and pass.is there any way to login to spotify reading from system settings or any button to login to spotify using facebook or google acc?i mean for faster login option.Also I would like to contribute for translation to Turkish if you can send me the text fields to be translated.I don't understand the github database thing.
Great app
But still some Playback error's happen.
Btw, will this app get updated or does the devolopment stopped?
Maaaan why £2.00? I don't wanna pay for the privilege of having a YouTube plugin for a music player.
It doesn't work for me (see screenshot)... After clicking play button I can see the play button circling (around the pause icon) but never started playing.. Am i missing to configure anything in particular..
Is this plugin dead now? Looks like it hasn't been updated in a while.
It keeps spinning.
Download???
From where can I download it?

If you want me to change anything. Let me know please
Add the button "paste from clipboard", so it would be a bit easier to dl the video

I miss a built-in streaming functionality, firefox streaming is choppy and the other option requires another app? If you were to build that functionality into the app it would be very useful to me.
Also the design etc looks good, simple and functional.

Looking for a Video Player App which supports Google Drive

Hi ladies and lads,
i am looking for an App that specializes on playing videos and the ability to access Google Drive. The official Drive App doesn't work out for me - everytime i try to scroll on the timeline of the video, i accidentaly swipe back / forth to the next video, when i swipe back its back to start.. it can not show me where i left which results in tedious searching of the last part i was watching, etc
In general, it feels exactly like it is: Drive is not a Video Player, its a Cloud App. Video is just one tiny feature.
Can anybody recommend an App which could provide a better experience when watching Content from Google Drive?
Thanks in Advance
Try the LocalCast which is available on Google Play. Its id is de.stefanpledl.localcast .
