On 2.3.4 i realized the stock music player force closes as soon as i start playing a song. It never force closes when im browsing through albums or artist or anything like that. Is this a known issue? Or can anyone suggest any help for me because i really like the new look of the motoblur player?
I have searched each section of the the atrix forum and have not found a similiar thread. If i posted in the wrong section please feel free to move.
I have force close issues if I open a music file THEN choose the player. If i open it then pick a song its fine. Nice player. I still use player pro and have also been using music beta.

I had this problem. There were two music apps running under the same name. I just used Titanium Backup to freeze the one I least liked. Hope this helps.
Seems like the same problem the fingerprint lock registration application is having. When the system tries to inflate a resource (could be a png, jpeg) it thinks it its not a drawable. Could be that this build its lacking some images.

Mine keeps force closing on me whenever I try to view my music by album. It will show the wrong album names next to the album covers, and then it shows the wrong songs in that album, followed by a force close. Works fine if you view by all songs. Just wondering if anyone else is having any issues, or if it could possibly be my SD card.
I haven't had this problem yet. Did you try clearing the data? Settings - Applications - Manage Applications, then click the All tab, go to music and hit Clear Data

I need to make a slight correction. It force closes when I view by artist and then choose an album. I'll try clearing the data now. Thanks for the suggestion.

I get the exact same force close. I have done a factory reset, and a few various other things. I have just determined that the music app is buggy at this time, and I've been using the Google music beta in the meantime.

Could be your files are corrupted or glitchy,, try different albums

i actually have had issues with reboots while playing music. very weird, but using power amp has fixed it.
This happens to me with the HTC player, Double Twist and Winamp. It basically skips songs, randomly stops the music, when I shut the screen off it would stop the htc player and winamp would play. There's so many weird things happening, and they all affect the music.

Google Music is AWESOMENESS!!!
I had this problem. I downloaded mp3tag on my PC. Click on file>add directory and add your music folder. After your music loads, scroll right to the "codec" heading,and click on the heading to sort by codec. I am not sure what codecs htc's player supports, but I deleted anything that wasn't "MPEG 1 Layer III" (mp3 is actually an abbreviation for this codec). This solved all of the problems you mentioned for me.

Hi guys, long time listener, first time poster.
I thought I would share my experience with the music app. I'm also having issues, but it only seems to be buggy when my aux cable is plugged from the headphone jack to the car. The music will skip as if I'm fast forwarding through the track and will eventually start skipping whole songs. I've also noticed when the phone goes into the lock screen, the music widget that appears has both the "play" and "forward" buttons highlighted as if I'm pressing them. Clearly I'm not pressing them. It also bugs out with Google Music Beta, though the app doesn't have a lock screen widget, yet. I have yet to try other music apps beside the two I mentioned. I will report back with any findings.
Thanks for having me.
After a couple days of searching and reading, looks like it's a bug with the headphone jack. The phone is reading headphones/aux cable as a control device. The Nexus One, Incredible and a few other phones had this issue when they launched. mrjkwik has posted a link to a fix in another thread, but here it is again.

Works for me so far, until HTC can roll out another update. Hopefully they do soon. The link to the market is for a widget, so place it on one of your home screens and make sure it's on before listening to music.
There seems to be a bug in the stock music player on kenneths 2.3.4 beta. When i create a playlist, after a few hours songs start to go missing. Every time i check there are a few less songs in my playlist then i originally added. Is this a known issue or is there something i may be able to do to correct the problem?
Sorry I'm not able to help you man, I personally hate the stock music player. Why don't you try out some other players, like PowerAmp? Yeah, it's the one I use.
I can consistently make the stock Music app crash. I just go and select a song or album from the library (usually by Artist), which will cause it to start playing music. Then I go and select another song and it will crash with the message the music player "has stopped unexpectedly" etc. etc. "Force Close". If it doesn't crash immediately, I just try playing another song. Switching songs twice does it every time.
I have almost 7.5GB of music, which I guess is a lot, but shouldn't cause crashes. I sync using Winamp on my desktop, though I think I also had the issue synching with other applications. Other apps work mostly fine. Winamp rarely crashes. MixZing and DoubleTwist have never crashed.
I thought it was the phone, so I took it back to the Sprint store. The Sprint guy remarked how hot my phone was (didn't seem out of the ordinary to me) and gave me a brand new phone. My music is on my 16GB SD card, so I tried it out 5 minutes after swapping to the new phone and it still crashes (though about all my other, unrelated phone problems have been fixed).
I've uploaded a video of this current phone crashing to YouTube, but I don't have enough posts to link to an outside URL.
Anyone else having this issue? Not like I need to use the stock player, but I'm just curious if this is only me.
I'm also having that problem. Thought it was just me, but I guess not. I have no idea how to fix it.

Not just you guys. I've been able to re-create that same crash, and have since I got the phone. It's not my music collection, as the exact same collection on the exact same SD card plays perfectly on the stock HTC Playler on my Evo 4G. It's the newer HTC Music app, it's buggy. I've posted about this in the 'current bugs' thread, and also over at Android Forums. Some other people also get the problem. Hopefully HTC will address it. I think a lot of other users don't notice this is because they use a 3rd party music player, such as google music beta, or poweramp or something like that. I like the stock player though, because of the lockscreen music widget
Thank god. Thought I was taking crazy pills.
Are you guys getting this while headphones plugged in? I had this issue intermittently, grabbed an app on the market called headset blocker widget, haven't had the issue since. I have not had the issue on speaker. ymmv

Nope, I've had this issue without headphones. Headphones will only cause the player to skip and pause, and I got Headset Blocker for that.
Haven't really use it so no idea or much info but there is a nice app in the market is call power AMP and is great player, you can download a free version or buy the full one for 5$ really good and great developer to, btw it has EQ options integrated and it works great
If you don't have an Evo3d well you don't have an Evo3d
My HTC Music Player is also buggy. Although, instead of force closing it just shuts down and I have to reboot. I am on my second 3VO handset, but I had the exact same probem with my first one.
I just started using RealPlayer Beta, works well...
I've been having all sorts of issues with the stock app as well, crashing and music skipping. Glad I read this thread though. Appreciate being pointed to the fix to my songs skipping. thanks.
Im using the honeycomb music app because it looks a hell of a lot nicer than the samsung one.
But despite using all the apps on the market i cant get album art on some of my songs and alot of the songs dont display an artist just grouped under 'unknown'.
Anyone know of a way to resolve this?
Wrong forum. Ask questions in the "questions" forum.
1. are you sure all of your mp3s (I assume it;s what you're playing) are properly tagged?
2. are you sure the tagging is consistent (ID3, ID3v2 etc)?

Did you sync using Kies?
If you just plainly copy them over, song info and album art etc. won't be displayed on your device for some odd reason.
Using Kies to transfer does the trick. I learnt this from personal experience.

Moving to Q&A
The Google music app works great for me. I use the Google Music Beta cloud streaming. It lets you download playlists and albums so I can have what I want to listen too off line and the rest of my thousands of songs stream and don't take up space on my tab. PM me your email if you want an invite.
On my Atrix, whenever I use jokersax CM9 or AOKP, every time my phone reboots, my music duplicates. I use my phone alot for music and have over 600 songs on it, so this is becoming a problem. Is it just me having this problem, or are there others too. Does anyone know a fix?
Me too... i only have around 90 songs in my phone and now in my music player its 300+++ songs!
The thing is the songs are not physically there, when u try to play it it wont play and player skips it!
How do we fix this issue?
I don´t really know what to do with the stock player to fix that. If you´re using Poweramp, which i highly recommend, this happens because at default settings it scans folder in more than one mount point and being so, it ends up with duplicated information. To fix, it´s just a matter of going into settings and select which folders are to be scanned.
Hope that helps...
Try pulling stock MIUI music player from my latest build and use that. If the Music apk is borking, this may work well. It's a pretty nice player, too
Try using stock player from a blur rom, i dont have that issue.
