[Q] Given Priority to Winamp instead of Google Music? (non-rooted)

So when you hit play from a bluetooth device it seems to be pure luck as to which player will start on android.
Is there anyway to alter this behaviour? The phone in question isn't rooted, and won't be. Since this is the case I can only remove the updates to the Music player, but it's still there and will randomly take priority over winamp.

I've always experienced this no matter what media players I'm using. Sometimes it will just start playing on the regular app instead of the app i want

Solution
The Solution is: Install old winamp 1.1.1

[APP] Google Music Multi User Support

Have you guys ever ran into the problem where you were listening to music on you phone then you play music on you tablet and Google pauses your music because your playing music on multiple devices?
Well this app I made fixes that.
I made this app quickly because me and my friend are always listening to music at the same time and it kept pausing the music.
When I have more time Ill update it with a better icon, better look, ect. but it works perfectly and it makes me so happy.
I know I can't be the only one in the world that ran into this problem and was annoyed. So here's a fix
HOW TO:
-just open the app, click on accessibility and turn on Google Music Multi User Support.
-Thats it. You're done.
No need to worry about it again. Turn on and off your phone? No worries. Don't even think about it.
also this app doesn't affect battery, like at all.
This app has only been tested on:
*Nexus 7
*Galaxy S4
*Galaxy SIII

[Q] MaxxAudio, possible to use system-wide?

One of the features I was most excited about the incremental OTA bringing was the new MaxxAudio audiofx. It works very well, I'd say on par with Viper4Android (albeit with less options), but there is a big caveat, it only works with certain apps like Google Play music, Apollo, and Spotify (when it wants to). It does not work with apps like n7 Music Player, Netflix, or YouTube. My question is, is there a way to get it to work for all system audio?
If nothing else then at least for the n7 player.

Yeah i have the same problem with pocket casts

Damn, I'm glad I found this topic... I thought that my hearing was off... So, just to report, not working with n7.
I don't really get it, we have a new audio drivers and EQ that simply don't work? What the hell...

Disable Audio Ducking

I'm wondering of there is an easy effort that I can do to disable the volume duck that occurs when I receive a notification (while listening to music)
Some ROMs have a setting g for this, but I'm wondering if someone could direct me to the proper file I might edit and turn this feature OFF..
I like my notification sound to just play over the music, or just not bother me..
Thx.

Pretty sure this has to do with what app you're using for playing music, and whether it uses the mediaplayer of your device or it's own custom one.

it's true, I hated the ducking but was able to disable it in PowerAMP settings.

Yeah, PowerAMP uses its own media service.

Is there a music player that has this feature that doesn't cost money? I'll pay for Poweramp if there isn't. VLC for Android, for instance, doesn't have this feature.
Edit: After some trial and error with various programs, I've discovered that MX Player plays back audio without ducking, but a drawback is that it doesn't have dynamic playlist creation capabilities (you need your files ordered in folders). It also plays Opus files, which is something that I was also looking for.
Another app, Rocket Player, will let you choose *between* ducking and pausing (under Settings->Sound->Audio Focus->Temp Focus Action), but it won't let you disable the action completely. That being said, I've found that for audio books and podcasts, I actually prefer pausing to ducking or no ducking, so I like Rocket Player in this respect (same goes with Poweramp).

guys,COS 12+ has this option in their OS. the question is there any xposed modules to do the same action like in COS ?? ( I'm not sure if it's available in CM12+ roms or not ) any idea?

Android lollipop bluetooth control not working correctly with some apps.

Hello
I'd like to know if there is any solution/any reason why some apps don't works with Bluetooth music control?
I have 3 music apps, one is default music app, works only sometimea, second is Google play music, which works perfectly, third is kugou, which don't works at all, like some other apps.
I used iOS with bluetooth control before, and there is a unified playback control, music/video playing is automatically assigned to first range to control and even an unified Bluetooth/device volume.
But there is nothing like that in android.
any solution ?
Thank you
