[Q] DoubleTwist not working for music on SD card - Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)

Hey guys,
I swapped in my microSD card from my S2 into my S3. Doubletwist can find this music fine, and the stock music player can actually play the music as well. However, if I press play, doubletwist goes through the entire list of songs very quickly and isn't able to play anything. It gives an error message at the end (I forget what it says... I've since moved all of it to the internal memory).
Anyone else also experiencing this???
Playback from internal memory is working fine (doubletwist).
Cheers,
Dan

[Q] Music Question

Hi,
When I first had my phone, there was no SD card in it. Any music I uploaded using kies, went directly to the built in 16 gb hard drive (12 gb ahem ahem) and this was picked up by the Samsung music player. Later when I added an SD card, the music player fails to pick up any of the music on the hard drive. However if I move it to the SD card, it DOES pick it up. Now I could just use another music player app, but i would really like to use the Samsung player.
Any suggestions on why this happens and how to stop this?
Thank you very much,
I love xda.
Just go to samsung music player and press "all" option in the left upper part, it will show you every possible sound/song in the phone's memory or external sd card.

It doesnt.
I have PowerAmp and this created a "MusicFolder" in the built in storage. Upon deleting this folder, the music reappeared.....
weird.
Thanks anyway.

[Q] music

im running eclipse 0.4 and have which ever music play comes with that.. ive noticed it cant seem to read the music on my SD card, only internal memory. how can i make it read both?
I had the same problem, I posted in his topic but never got it fixed. I reckon no music player finds your music? Mine didn't so I just went back to 2.3.3.
im useing Winamp with my music on the SD card and its reading ok for me.
I like poweramp. Can also reduce skipping most if time using the buffer setting.
It has an option in settings that allows u too choose which folders to scan for music. Including external sd card folders. 14 days trial. Costs 5$ after that but definitely worth it.

Music not being found immediately

Anyone else having an issue with their media (specifically music) not being found in media player immediately? It takes a good 10 minutes for me (or a reboot). :'(
It happened to me before. I just moved all the media to the internal memory and everything is always there.

No... don't think so. I have mine in a folder on my external sd that I made called MUSIC and also have mp3s in another folder called LECTURES and it finds all of them.
Sometimes the widget says "no music available" or something and tells me to go to the library then when I go into the app it's all right there.
Nope and up until just recently I have always kept all my music on my external (SD card) storage. I moved my music to my internal storage and still don't have any problems.
Only time I recall ever having an issue was when there was an issue mounting the SDcard itself due to the ROM.

[Help] Old music not showing up in file manager(s), but is found in media players

Hey guys
My S3, running Jellybam 6.3.0, works fine, but there is a little issue that I'm experiencing
and it's become pretty irksome.
I had 8gb of music on an iPod that I transferred to my PC, then to and SD card, which I now use for my GS3.
All of my past music appears in music players and play fine, but any new music that I download from the phone doesn't show up.
I thought maybe the music players weren't scanning for mp3 files in the download folder, so I decided to move them from the downloads folder
to my Music folder with all my other files.
Here's the problem:
The file manager doesn't seem to "see" for find any of the old music, despite all of the media players finding it no problem.
Also, any new music I download can be searched for an played in a music player, but it is never added to the library.
I decided to mount my phone to my PC do double check, and all of my music is there in the Music folder, which is on the root of my sd card.
Has anyone else had this issue

Did you try to wipe data and install everything again??
Might be a DRM issue?

Music Skipping Problem

I'm having an issue with music playback. About once every song there is a short pause. Only happens when the mp3s are coming from the microsd card (Sandisk Ultra 128gb microsdxc class 10). Playback is smooth from internal memory. Transferring songs from microsd to internal memory transfers at 25mb/s so it doesn't seem to be a hardware issue.
I've tried:
Moving sim card to the other spot
Turning off wifi
Restoring back to stock (I'm running debloat script, no swap, rooted, adaway)
The problem still persists. The microsd came from a moto g 2015 and I did not have this issue with that phone.
Anyone have the same issue or know of a fix?
Uninstalling Facebook messenger worked for me.
Are you using Emui/stock music player? Which player do you use? Are you listening through phone speaker/headphones/Bluetooth? I have not experienced this issue with stock Music app on phone spesker so far.

I'm using Poweramp but have the same issue with Google music. I haven't tried the stock player. Issue happens through Bluetooth, headphones (wired), and phone speaker.
Messenger is not installed. Using Google now launcher.
Almost seems like it runs out of memory because it also happens when I open another app while listening to music.
It seems there are 2 folders added to the sd card, Android and LOST.DIR. Maybe the system is writing to these folders while I listen to music?
I tried a different sd card (Samsung Evo 32GB) and have the same issue. At this point I am assuming I have a defective phone.
