3rd party music control on lock screen - Honor 8 Questions & Answers

I like to use doubletwist for my music player. I have all the permissions I could find set up. I can see the player on the screen, but I can't control anything?

I have the same issue with 3rd party music and podcast apps. The playback buttons on the notification for the app on the lock screen do not work. Does anyone know of a way to enable them?

[Q] Youtube pauses on lock

I just updated my i9000 to android ICS but I have a problem with the youtube app:
I used to listen music with youtube, but when I lock my phone during the playback of the video, it pauses. Is there any way to disable this so that I can listen to my music without keeping the screen on all the time?
No, it is a feature. You may be able to use an app to disable the lockscreen though.

Intermittent Lock Screen Media Controls

Reposting here, I accidentally posted this under the Note II.
Running Codename Android, and as the title says, sometimes the media playback controls show up on my lock screen and sometimes they don't. I haven't been able to figure out what causes them to show up.
Apps: Google Play Music, BeyondPod
BeyondPod uses the stock controls of google play, or appears to. When playing podcasts, the lock screen controls are there about 80% of the time (so far). Is this a common issue? Is there any fix? Or alternatively, is there any free solution which puts universal media controls on the lock screen?
I have looked around and found widget locker, etc but I prefer not to use that.

How to stop music cover art from showing on lock screen

Does anyone know how to keep the music album cover art from displaying when the screen is locked.
Without losing the play/pause and next buttons on the lock screen?
I really do not want a image popping up when I turn on my phone, that I have no control over.
So far I know Play music and Rhapsody both show the cover art when music is playing
spotify does not seem to download cover art, so it works

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Spotify has downloaded cover art for me and does cover my lockscreen, in fact. The only work around i've found, I added a widget to my lockscreen (by enabling widgets on lockscreen, stock feature) and flipping to that app while I have music playing. That way I can switch back and forth when I want to skip track/pause.
I don't think we'll do exactly what we want here without switching ROMs.
Curious as to why you wouldn't want them to show? I thought this was a great addition.
Yeah I actually love the addition of showing the album artwork when music is playing. Doubletwist does it too, but randomly it'll I guess glitch out and then it won't show the controls or the artwork even though music is playing.
Anyone find a way to fix this problem?

Lockscreen Music Player FaceWidget

Is there a way to keep a face widget expanded after turning off the screen and then keeping it expanded once the screen is turned off/on instead of clicking on the widget again?
I like the music player once it's expanded and want to keep it that way while I have music playing. This way the player buttons come down more on the screen and more accessible + show the artwork.

Lockscreen with the normal music player and the other is single-tap on the player to show the album cover.
On the plus side, Spotify now works with this music player.

Lock screen music controls not working.

Hey everyone,
My music controls for some media playing apps are not working in lock screen. For example they don't work with YouTube vanced and Pandora. They work with Spotify and Samsung music player though. Anybody knows how can I fix this? It's annoying to unlock the screen to change songs.
