[Q] Recommend Music Player? - General Questions and Answers

Hello there everyone ^^ my question is about Music Players. I have been using for 3 years now the PlayerPro Music Player, I really like it because you can do what other players won't let you, like:
- Delete songs (as far I know, the default android music player won't let you do this, and IDK if other players would let you since I've only used the PlayerPro all these last 3 years).
- Search and edit artwork for songs, albums, artists from internet.
- Edit songs, albums, artists names and all the other info.
That's pretty much everything I love about that player. The thing is that after 3 years I would like to get a new one but I don't want to lose all those features that makes my life easier. Another reason to change player despite the 3 years using the same one is that I've been getting a lot of bugs and errors lately from the PlayerPro. I can't enjoy it anymore. Yeah, I know apps get updates fixing all kind of bugs and error. But hey, I want a new one x).
Does anyone know about another player with the same features I wrote? Thank you very much minna-san.

I personally like Rocket Player
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrtstudio.AnotherMusicPlayer&hl=en
It can delete songs and lets you edit all the meta-info. Unfortunately it can't fetch the metainfo automatically for you

PlayerPro Music i'm using it too, has everything i need.

I like the Sony Walkman player, you can find the apk online

I am also a big fan of Sony Walkman

i really like fusion music player, it has all above mentioned features and more

Power Amp is very nice. Black skin the best.

[POLL] Which music player are you using?

As a follow up to this thread, let's determine the most popular music player.
Lithium the best
MediaScape not included in the list.
Thread moved to D&H Android General.
Sadly, I think the stock player is the best one yet. The volume rocker and trackball controls are a nice feature. Plus, it just looks nice having the album art as a black and white background while selecting a song.
I have tried several of the more popular players and found them to be fairly ugly and plain.
I remember reading somewhere that most media players dont even have their own audio support, they just use the default/built in audio engine of the regular player anyway...
Stock is working best and with the device controls for me right now.
Subsonic ..... It allows me to have all my music without trying to fit it on my phone
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
Streamfurious, as I don't really use local mp3s.
Stock music player is so primitive it cannot be the best. Maybe most popular if it's good enough for many people, but I think some other players in this poll are better.

There are many competing streaming music apps (btw Rdio opened to public today). Should make a separate poll for them.
MortPlayer
I've used MixZing, MusicMod, doubleTwist and Meridian
So the conclusion is ... inconclusive. The stock music player seems to be bad enough so that people are trying out other players, but there are no clear winner among non-stock players yet.
Default stock Sense music player is best to me.
I personally prefer RealPlayer. Currently it's in the Market in Beta stage. But it's incredibly clean looking, and easy to use. Plus, I don't have to put my music, video, or pictures in set locations on the SDCard. I can put everything where I want without loss of speed.
I like the stock player on my Captivate.. but for me it lacks lockscreen control and scrobbling. I have been trying other free ones that fit my needs, and may settle on 3 (cubed) for awhile.

Id personaly love to see winamp, been using it for years and think its great.
HTC Stock because I don't really listen to mp3s on the phone (ipod), Retro Radio for streams

[Q] Organize music?

Hi all
Im kind of new in this operative system and i'm getting used to it, but I can't specify a Music folder.
Each time I start any mp3 player app, it plays my music and many game sound files that I don't want to hear.
Is there any way to select which folders must these apps search?
Thank you very much in advance and sorry for my stained english!
The stock music player is not that great. I recommend poweramp, which is on the market. It can do almost everything you want from a music player.
Rockin' DJ05, Minimal Icognito, Clocked at 1.3Ghz
Another recommendation for Poweramp.
Stock Music Players don't look beyond the default folder and this is where Apps such as Poweramp come into their own, you can customize it to look for other music stored on your phone or sd card.
It also has a graphics equalizer and you can boost the sound to play louder from the PreAmp list.
tinyPlayer - for playing music from folders. Basic, small (60 kb), efficient - my favorite.

Go with Poweramp and you will not regret it. It has the ability to play from folders, organize all your music for you and does it on the phone without using some of the more annoying apps out there!
just create a file called .Nomedia and place it in every folder you dont want to show up in the music app.
well, if you're like me, and you think 5 dollars is highway robbery for a music app, then look into something a bit more simple. I don't actually like doubletwist, but for someone new to android - it's cool because it actually syncs itunes to android as well as acts as a audio/video player (most players will solve your folder issue).
Poweramp is one of these really "I have everything" apps like Handcent SMS (an alternate text messaging app that everyone dies for, when there are plenty of equal or better options out there). Fact is, there are plenty of apps that have what you are looking for. Enjoy the market place, and read reviews. You'll find tons. My guess is since you didn't look there immediately, you probably are feeling overwhelmed and not using your android to its full extent yet. Forums are a great place to start. You'll also quickly realize that "which music player is best" is bound to get a bunch of people in twister - this month it's poweramp, next month it will be __________.

[Q] Anyone know of any good podcast player for ICS?

I love listening to podcasts, but neither the default ICS player or Poweramp will bookmark where I am in audio files (even ones tagged as podcasts)
Are there any free (or at least cheap) audio players that will save my place in files??
Thanks!

Bump on this too. I just got my Sprint NG, so yeah I want good podcast management like my WP7 had.
Bump in hopes of someone seeing it!
Per recommendations online, I found DoggCatcher.
Holy crap this thing is perfect! After spending a day with it, exporting my list so I can re-import it at will (wish WP7/Zune could do that), I immediately bought the full version.
Awesome.

Music player app search

Is there a music player that will recognize custom genres? I like to keep my 80's music in one genre but it seems all the players I have tried will list them as folk. I have updated and changed my tags to no avail. Any help is appreciated.

PlayerPro will. Its the best music app I've ever had. And I've had alot. Its simply the simplest to use, but can be tweaked to the core if you like to do so. Also tons of skin options.
Enjoy and make sure Hall & Oates stays far away from your Pantera collection.

best music player??

what do you guys think? i personally use poweramp, but i'm interested to see what you guy like!

I use Poweramp Full version & MX Player Pro as my media players...
I played with poweramp for about an hour before I bought the full version. Works for me, haven't found too much to gripe about thus far.
I use Winamp PRO, because it quickly, easily syncs all my music from my computer while I sleep via Wifi. And since I don't use MP3's, my FLAC files sound fantastic. With the equalizer, dark theme, and no problems, it is by far my favorite music player.

Double Twist is by far my favorite. So many awesome options
I am a Playerpro user all the way.....Poweramp is not bad, but its UI is a bit cumbersome. I take my players seriously, and have tried many. While driving, Poweramp becomes an accident waiting to happen if your trying to find a specific song or album coming from the actual player screen. Playerpro is much easier to navigate, much better UI and its options/features are comparable to Poweramp. Both have great album art support, and both are equal in sound quality (I have Martin Logan Sequal II electrostatic speakers that I have thoroughly tested both on). You also may notice that I am only mentioning these 2 players.................no reason to mention anymore!
aight cool lol i might try out all these man lol
I use google play music since its most convenient. Just wish i could play it via another player because its a very basic player.
Really wish i had the beats audio from my evo lte tho shii soumds gooooood
we don't see things as they are; we see things as we are.
