I have comm rom on my fascinate and tons of songs on my sd card, but when i use the music player it doesn't have all the songs in the library. why is that? is there anyway to fix it? or make it work?
Double check the formats of your music to make sure its .mp3 or similar. Good place to start.

the formats are all .mp3
I can confirm this problem. The songs are there but the music player doesn't show them. A tiny bug...

use root exploret or similar and go into your sd card and delete the android folder and reboot. This fixed it for me. I've also had a problem where sometimes it would show the same song multiple times and it would fix that too.

What I'm assuming you mean is that the game music and sound files are showing up in your scrollable list in the music player, and not that the game dev was stupid enough to actually force the music files to be installed in the same physical folder your music is.
If that's the case there's a relatively easy fix. Create a blank file called .nomedia and place that file into the folder where the games music is located. You'll just have to mount and search the SD card storage to find where this is.
Once you do this the media scanner will skip that folder when figuring out what video/audio media to index on your phone.
Can I do the same to a cut scene in my videos folder?

Yeah, that worked perfectly.

I just started using the app Ayal to download music on to my vibrant while I'm at work, if I don't I'll blow my brains out all over my keyboard. Anyway, for some reason on my music player I have the same song repeated twice. Yet, when I use Astro to check if I downloaded more than file I only see one. Is this a problem with the app or with my music player?

Playlist created with PowerAmp. After it happened a few times I switched to PlayerPro but it happened again. I read somewhere that it might be caused by media scanner and I did add a HTML file to my phone last night.
What's causing this and how do I avoid it? Thanks

is your music stored on the external sd card?
I got the same problem whenever I hook up to the usb. I talked to the dev. and they told me that power amp doesn't keep track of tracks on a playlist that comes from the sd. Sad!

Yes, songs stored on external SD card. I'll move them to internal storage. Good thing the Vibrant has lots of storage. Thanks!
Edit: This is the solution because songs purchased from Amazon were stored internally and those tracks were not deleted.

Hi everbody.
I have Sensation with Android 2.3.5 right now. And there is a problem I couldn't solve and find any solution about it.
Some of my musics don't show up on library no matter which music player I use. These songs don't have any particular property that can cause it. Half of the songs of same album or different bitrates or same bitrates or same tags or different tags. It's just mixed at all.
I can see and play these songs using file explorers.
Different roms don't change anything either. Sense or CM.
Deleting and copying music files again or tagging again didn't solve.
Formatting SD card didn't solve.
Deleting cache of MediaProvider.apk didn't solve.
Changing file manes or folder didn't solve.
I use cover art downloader to refresh mediastore everytime but it doesn't stick.
I'm tired of it.
I'm open to the ideas...
What is the format of your songs that can't play normally?

MP3. To clear things up, they play normally but don't show up on libraries of music players. After I trig scanning they show up. After some hours they dissapears from libraries again.

I don't have this problem. I have up to 22mb mp3, 512kbps bitrate, mp3 or flac format.. btw, I use Google music.
If you try to search the music using search option in music app, will it work?

Mines are V0 Mp3 and their size are up to 15 MB. Average is 8 MB. Totally 1567 songs.
Search can't find them either because they're not included in library.
Btw, there are people who have that problem on the net. Even on Google forums(I don't know exact name) after long conversations still no solution as far as I read.
So no one has any clue?

Tried an hour ago, it added the missing songs to the library. Just came back to check if it's still ok but no luck. They dissapeared again.
unfortunatly I am kinda having same problem but I think mine is a bit more irritating. ever since I updated to gingerbread on my thunderbolt all and I mean all my music was misscatigorized, band names changed ,song names changed. it appears that the only ones that didnt change were one that had all info even album art. even newly downloaded songs are misscatagorized. im considering deleting the stock player all together . who the hell has the time to go threw and re name everything or re download .

I see the downloaded playlist mp3's inter Android data folder, but they are all named in a numerical format? I can choose the HTC music player when I select one from the list, but it won't populate the HTC player with the info.
Any body have any ideas that would work?
Setting HTC music player as default will not work for me.

You would have to move the files to /sdcard/music or /sdcard2/music

I manually dumped a playlist on my computer just to test/play with Beats when I got the phone. It worked perfectly fine, but I did it on the PC side.

I created a music folder on the SD card then drag/dropped my music from the desktop to that folder. Works fine with no issues. I would think that playlists would be similar but I may be wrong. Where did your Google music come from, iTunes or stored?
Stored .
I just thought it would be an easy way to avoid having to store the music twice and still be able to get beats tuning.
