poweramp + dice player/super video for youtube etc.
player pro music player, been using it since the days of x10 mini pro and LG P920.
I use to use poweramp but have been using playerpro for music lately
for video either mobo player or MX player
Neutron!! The only player that supports crossfeed and normalization! It has the best audio quality of any app (tried like 25 different players) and the interface is an audiophile's heaven, although it might seem a little complex to the average user.

Same Schiphol.
Music is my hobby. Since I tried Neutron Mp, I don't care for ANY other music app !
What is limitation of Neutron mp?
1. It can't play .dts!
2. Eats battery, depends on version.
That's all.
What Neutron can do?
Decode .tta 5.1 chanels!
Decode 32/96 format. (Resample)
Dcode 24/96 format. (Sent as is to dac)
Decode 50Mbps bitrates! (Special format 24/382.1)
Normalizer function
Parametrical EQ. This is hard to use , but no competitor!
Strongly recommend!
Second recomend : runs also DSPmanager apk, delete all other dsp like eq.apk, musicfx.apk !

Just moved from S2 to S3 and installed Dice movie player and for some reasons it keeps freezing and hangs
Poweramp and vplayer here. I may have to give Neutron a go though.
I used to like poweramp but it force closes randomly. Mainly if I skip songs. Annoying if I skip like 4-6 tracks it then force closes. It did this on my Note too. Tried different memory cards, music files, etc. Nothing has fixed it. On my Note it was only fixed by going back to gingerbread.
Until that bug is fixed I am staying away. Even the update the other day hasn't fixed it. And the developer has offered swear f all for help when I report the issue. Blames it on my phone. Two phones, 4 memory cards, over 3,000 different files, different file system types, and same issue present in all scenarios on ICS.
Switched to player pro and all is well. Can hit skip 100 times in a row and it won't crash. I use MX Player for videos.
I wish neutron had a better UI, it makes my Aurisonics sound phenomenal. Maybe I'll give it another shot soon, see if I can get used to the UI

Actually the stock player seems good enough for me.
current using winamp pro (like the wireless sync features), tested poweramp, sounds very good with headphones but a waste currently have crackling sounds issues like stock player, hope it gets fix soon
stock and stock! both stock apps are amazing. poweramp only has the ability to delete songs while playing, aside from this the UI of stock is far superior. just wish it had as many options as poweramp
as for video, stock is great, love the landscape toggle, and subtitle support. and popular play, common what more can you ask for

So what is your favorite app for music playing? and why? key word APP so no flashing or anything hard. Just like from the market. and I know this has been asked a few times but I would like to know what you use. Like what you like about it. Simplicity? Features? etc. thanks in advance.
ALSO, I'm sorry if this is in the wrong section. It is regarding apps but I wasn't sure if it should go in Q&A cause those questions seemed a lot more general.
TTPOD. and UberMusic. Poweramp is cool sometimes.

viva la MIUI
Poweramp is the best..
eq makes a huge difference.
PlayerPro - tried some apps, but PlayerPro has all I was looking for: A nice interface, lockscreen controls, can play videos and runs very stable.
Player pro is the best! Ubermusic is nice too but very simple interface for me..
I use poweramp.
Ubermusic
I love the UI although some said it's a mock-up of wp's music player.
Google Music 4.0.1 currently. Although I search for another one.

Just tried this and it is pretty awesome.
Nice and loud.
I can honestly say after trying various headsets, IEMs with all the music apps available, the best match of music player, phone and headsets are all different. Since poweramp, Zplayer etc all make a slight difference to the sound quality, you should try all to find which is the music player with your favourite signature sound.
If you like to EQ, try equalizer or Volume + in the mixture as well
Lookwise, I personally like Zplayer.
ease of use, probably playerpro for most but poweramp for me cuz I really like the way it divides the folders.
Google music + beta, that's where I store my music. I mean after all placing 6000 mp3's on my sd card would just be crazy.

Music app
I use gtunes...its cool,its free,music is free...the downside is that not all mucic you search for using gtunes will be available.but for free music is great. There is a new version of it on the market called music downloader if my memory serves me right.the correct gtunes app is difficult to find now days.
My favorite is definitely Google Music 4.0
The new UI is leaps and bounds better than 3, despite not changing a whole lot... it just feels cleaner. And the addition of being able to stream and cache makes it the most feature filled imo. If you're an EQ guy (I typically want flat, because hey thats the way the producers intend for it to be heard) their is an inapp option that takes you to your EQ of choice from the market, and it feels very fluid, almost as if it were part of the app itself. Google has come a long way in the music department in the year I've had my phone.
I'm using Fede's Music App (wp7'ish)
PlayerPro looks like really cool!

Hey guys... I was just wondering what is your best music player for android?
In my own opinion, PowerAmp is great but its more music freaks. I really do not need an equalizer and all the fancy features that PowerAmp has. However, I do like PowerAmp a lot because it was able to play almost every kind of music file I threw its way.
Another great music player in my opinion is PlayerPro. It is easy to use and it is interface is nice. It does not have any of the fancy feature of PowerAmp such as the equalizer and that is a plus in my book. However, it is able to play almost any type of music file and that is awesome.
I like the Google Music player too. It does what I need it to do for the most part but I don't like the fact that it supports a limited amount of formats.
I found this site as a cool site for more about the best android apps:

i love N7 and it's only $0.99 for the pro version and ends today.
A lot of people have been telling me about n7 and PlayerPro.
I am relatively familar with playerpro but I have no clue about n7.
What exactly makes n7 so good? I heard they have a nice theme but what else?
I use Zplayer. I like the WP7 style pulse it has tons of options like a EQ, Album Art and editing, Lyrics, Radio stations and also plays Videos.

UberMusic is beautiful and runs awesome. I recommend the zune skin to go with it. It really adds to the whole experience.
I had PowerAmp too and it is very nice but I'm all about the clean aesthetic which UberMusic has and PowerAmp does not.
MIUI music always worked well too.

After having paid for launcher pro and having the dev abandon it with empty promises, I'm kinda reluctant to run with uber music.
Player pro (paid) has the best interface in my opinion. (ics theme), and very good folder support. (keeps the parent folder intact) so I can browse my folders by artist and more.
BUT it is a bit buggy. Id tagging doesn't stick, notification widget on jelly bean freezes, no fade in/out on play, pause, resume. Average song quality.
Power amp is less buggy, notification widget is perfect on jb, and it has better sound quality than playerpro (could be placebo)
Unfortunately I find the interface less intuitive and way less user friendly, and the folder browser plainly sucks. It doesn't respect parent folders, so i cannot browse by a folder structure. Good id tagging though, but doesn't do bulk tagging.
I've been going back and forth between them (having paid for both), atm I'm running power amp.
I wish I could have a music player with proper folder browsing, proper bulk id tagging, simple interface, great quality playback, fade in/out play etc
Most players have very poor folder browsing support, such as default players, google music, apollo, etc.
I'd love some good advice on the perfect player (playerpro and poweramp marriage?)

I agree with you on the uber music thing...it has been abandoned and it seems the dev has started a few other projects that have gone the same way but I find zplayer to be the next best thing and yes it does get updates when it needs it

Just wondering.. since you have used it.. Do all the features work as promised? Smooth? no crashes?
I have cm7 based Topsmarts gb rom with faux123 1ghz kernel. The music from Atrix is not satisfying me and also its not playing hd videos. I searched the forums about hd vids, I realized that main profile mp4 are only supported. So please suggest me a nice audio player with nice sounds in earphones, a good video player and a video coverter for PC to convert videos to main profile mp4......

I've always disliked pretty much all of the media players for Android devices (go figure) but I've gotten to where I use Google Play the most, to me it's the lesser of many evils.
The absolute best advice I can give is really on the video converter. Handbrake is hands down the best tool for the job. www.handbrake.fr
thanks!!!
is there any specific settings for handbrake.

Well, for video player, i like to use MX Player. Pretty nice and slim IMO.
For video, Mobo Player

Google Play Music and MX for video.
Video = Mobo Player (remember to get the ARM V7 codec)
Audio = Player Pro with the DSP plugin.
I'd leave the settings alone and just use the presets on the right side. Normal is a good, basic setting but but can create large files the iPod Classic setting is a good balance of quality and size.

Can anyone recommend the best Android video playback app? There are literally dozens on the play store. I find that the stock video player with the G Pad plays AVI and MP4 just fine but cannot handle MKV files. Would definitely require an app that uses hardware acceleration as well.
Thanks
I downloaded MX Player and seemed to do well.
MX Player is obviously the best player..
yeah mx player. One additional reason is that it supports so many different subtitles formats
Another benefit of mx player is follows:
If you pin a movie from Google play and it uses a lot of space, you can then use a file manager and go-to the folder and move the movie too your sd card. Out will have a funny name with a gem extension, but mx player can then be configured to look for that extension and still play it, saving valuable space on our internalso storage.

I use MX Player too. Does everything I want. Plenty of settings to display the elapsed/remaining time, etc. I haven't found any format that doesn't work with it.
Last week, i wanted to open some old videos from my old camera. It was formated as quick time, default player nothing, with mx, all videos played just fine.
One more vote for MX player. I use VLC at home, and have dabbled with Mobi, QQ and others on Android, but MX is the most solid overall player around. I watch a lot of stuff with subtitles and this rocks for it. If only the native player were nearly as good!

mx is pretty good and I paired it with Mizuu to organized my movies. Archos is also a good up and coming player.

MX Player
My vote is for MX player. I have the premium version and it works great on my phone, Gpad, and my son's Nexus 7.
MX is good. I also like Diceplayer lots.
+1 for MX player
MX player is really good to use. Very easy to use gestures for increasing volume, brightness, forward/rewind among other things.
+1 for MX Player.
I'm also experimenting with the MediaMonkey Beta, which plays OKand handles libraries as well too.
Well MX player is no doubt the best player, some other options could be moboplayer, vp player, rock player. Check with all and choose the one that will be more compatible with your device.
Just popping back to this thread to report that I've been playing with the stock video player on this thing and it's actually not bad at all. It supports added subtitle files (haven't tried embedded ones just yet) and the brightness and volume controls are basically the same as MX Player. The scan function is also pretty cool, showing a little preview of the point you're scrolling to before you tap on it to go to that point. Works with all formats I've tried so far, and I've also started to appreciate having the player going in the background (and transparent) while I'm twittering away about stuff.
Anyone else play with and like the stock player? Any shortcomings you can think of?
Mark
I was an MX fan (and still am) but Dice player has a nice variable playback speed function. It makes watching some programmes a bit easier, and certainly quicker!
Both seem to farm out the decoding to hardware and that saves battery.
Diceplayer for the samba-ftp no frills browser. I have been streaming from my ubuntu file server without a problem.

I agree, the LG video player - and its Streaming Player facility - is an excellent piece of software; probably the most capable video player to come bundled with a tablet.
That said, MX player handles streamed video better, with virtually no buffering. The LG player tends to buffer quite a bit - and I'm wondering if there's a setting somewhere to increase its cache..
Hi all,
I have an extensive music library - and I'm currently using both Play Music and the default Music app to play the songs.
However it appears that no matter what settings I choose, whether I skip songs or not, both apps with only choose certain songs to play out of the 500 or so I have stored on my SD card.
Do you have recommendations on a good music player (prefer only music as don't watch videos) that doesn't just have a set list of tracks but actually shuffles when it says it is.
Thanks,
Linz.
Poweramp is pretty good but you would have to pay for it
yup, PowerAMP rocks!
there are music players like PowerAmp, N7player, PlayerPro, etc... all have trial versions, maybe you should try these and decide by yourself.

im more of a clean design guy with a serious music library ocd,
always used shuttle+ since it keeps my library sorted with artist and album pictures, its latest beta gives it a more material design feel, and has never let me down.
On the 'free' front, I have used Vanilla Player and would recommend it. It's very capable of handling large number of files, and playlists.

Both of these players support ReplayGain, which was an important feature for me.
