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.

Does anybody know why when I download a game like Dark Legends and Angry Birds why do all the sound effects are being installed in my Power Amp App? . I just want music there. Now I have it says 1234 files. And its mostly sounds not music. How do I fix this? It only happens with Power Amp. PS I have tried moving it from the USB storage to SD card and phone. Still no help. Thanks

You need to change the folders you have poweramp scan and get the music from. Gimmie a sec and ill try and get you step by step.

Menu button. Settings. Folders/Library. Music Folders. Then check the folders you want poweramp to extract files from. Then click select folders. Poweramp will then scan just those folders you've selected. Once that's done, enjoy JUST your music and no other sounds!
Hope this helps.

is there any music player that doesn't automatically scan all the sd card?
i listen to audiobooks on my phone too and currently using winamp but it lists all the audiobook files as well as the my music tracks which is a bit annoying. tried stock player which has the same behaviour.

why don't you set folder view in winamp...you can select sibgle folder to play
Power Amp. You can select the folder for your mp3 and it will scan only them.

dunno.....didn't try free version
lol I'm guessing not,i don't think I'm that blind
gonna see how i go with TTpod for a while,i couldn't find folder select option but gives more options as how to navigate and being able to browse by filename is a feature i like too.

There are other options too.
MIXZING for example it has both the functions that you need.scan a particular folder as well as play by folder.
U can give it a try but nothing beats power amp.using it from a long time.if you can afford it just go for it.
Edit: mixzing is free

unfortunately i can't afford poweramp but I'll give mixzing a try, thanks

just what you need Clean Music Player
just tried clean music player, looked good but failed in playing flac files, thanks for the suggestion though.
Sent from my GT-I5800 using XDA
i emailed the clean music player dev about it not being able to play flac files received a reply within a day informing me that he is working on it. huge respect to that, looks like it won't be long til clean music player will be my player of choice.

Great
They're really getting in the way of all the real music I downloaded so the question is if I delete the UI sounds from the music player, will they still be heard in the UI?
Sent from my SGH-I777 using XDA
Out of curiosity i wanted to see if it holds true. It does....... Im using the sony walkman apk as my player. I deleted a ui sound and checked in root explorer and it was gone. There are some players, miui for example that allow the user to set a size limit for audio files and wont add any under 800kb to the apps music library.

They release a new phone. Promise updates and support. Don't update and release a new phone 6 months later. Rinse. Repeat. Updates come when they've made enough money and are bored. Its just the way big company's roll.

Create a file called ".nomedia" where your UI sounds are stored. This should cause files in those folders to be excluded from the TW music player.

It will also exclude them from the system's Media Scanner. Everything stock related to media in Android uses the Media Scanner's database. Ringtone/notification chooser and almost all media players as well.
This is the exact reason why I refuse to use any media player that doesn't support Folders. I can tell it to look exclusively in a folder or folders for music, and it will ignore anything that's not in those folder(s).
Hello.
I'm looking for a video application that lets you browse your phone/sdcard like a file manager and click on the video files that you want to play.
I know RockPlayer can do this but I wanted to try something else. Does anyone know an app similar to RockPlayer?
Thanks!
Try Mobo Player

Thanks, but it didn't work as I wanted it to. Basicaly I have a few videos that I do not want to show up in the defualt video app so I have put a ".nomedia" file in the folder where these videos are located.
Mobo player found all of these anyway and saved them for easy access.
RockPlayer is perfect really but I'm just fealing a little paranoid I guess, because it has the "Phone Call" permission. Why would a normal video app want to "read phone state and identity"? I'm not sure how it works.
