Hi
When i download some songs they are normally "Album : Unknown Album"
I also download some songs through the iMusic Tao app and it annoys me when they dont have an Album as the Album Art Grabber cant give it an album art so is there an apps on the market that will allow me to edit properties ?
Also whats the best ways of doing it on the PC is it just the basic vista one ?
Cheers

On the pc you can use wmp.
Nothing on phone to edit meta tags etc. at the moment (unless there is in which case do share )
There's mp3tagger pro in the market, its 99p. Let's u edit tags and album art. I used to use the free version which didn't allow for art change but was worked very well to edit the tag info. I guess the pro version will work just as well. Think it was developed by a member on here if I remember correctly.
Yes, that's right, I am the developer
You can choose "load directory" or "load by album" in mp3tagger pro and then bulk edit the album and artist name for all mp3s at once (it really writes the info into the files). Then you can automatically search for a cover with mp3tagger pro as well.
Hope that helps,

Another option (since I hate WMP for music) is MediaMonkey. It gives you a lot of options for syncing to different devices. You can tell it to copy folder.jpg into the album directory when it syncs, and you can also tell it to embed the album art into the mp3 files. All my album art seems to go across just fine with it.

Hey just bought your program the other day, really like it, helps sort out my album art problem, just one thing i would really like to see would be grouping of files by a search name as you could have directorywith 100's of different music files in them.

Sounds like an interesting option, I will add a filter dialog in the directory/file chooser in the next version.
You may want to check the latest version of mp3tagger pro in the market, it now has a filter for loading multiple files inside a directory.

If I'm not wrong u can create a playlist on PC.
Then u must save it in .m3u format so that the player recognize it.

1) Try an other format like .wmp or .pls
2) put the playlist file in same folder like music [maybe that's the prob?]

my quick playlist method
What I do...i click and drag music files to the phone/memory card first.
Once the files are there, i open up winamp classic, click and drag the mp3's i want in a playlist from the phone into the winamp playlist (shortcut or plus symbol appears on drop).
Now i just click save playlist (m3u) on bottom left tab, and then save the playlist in the phone/memory card music folder.
Done
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just read people have trouble with m3u.
I have always used a 3rd party music player on my android phones including this one...
winamp is a free simple app that works.
also works on player pro
Why don´t you try another player, like winamp or poweramp?

because i think the original player will use hardware to decode instead of software decode
Hi guys,
I'm looking for 3 apps.. one in particular..but 3 in general..
- for download music, I need one app that allows me to see the bitrate of the song before i'm gonna download it..
- for listen music, i already know about poweramp and n7player.. do i miss some other good programs? For me the most important thing is that the player must have the best sound quality and let me play entire folders.. in windows I was use to play music with mediamonkey..
- for organise music, the most important app i'm looking for.. I need an app that recognize something like "a% - t%" (artist - title) and automatically edit the id3 tags of multiple songs.. I mean, one app that just read the filename of the song and automatically tags the file.. in windows, with mediamonkey I was able to tag the id3 from filename and viceversa.. I already tried DroID3Tagger but the app freeze when I try to edit the id3..
Do you know the app(s) i'm looking for?
P.S. sorry for my english......

MixZing Media Player
I would look outside the play store for older versions because the newer versions have video ads

I have downloaded two three songs on my mobile through chrome, then through ES file explorer, i moved those songs to /sdcard/Music/ where rest of my mp3s are.. the problem is that these new songs are not shown in the Music app.. months ago, I had copied songs from my pc to my phone /sdcard/Music/ through ES file explorer.. and they showed up fine..
can anyone help me out with this?
my phone is rooted
ICS 4.0.4

Never lose interest in Android. Try clearing data and cache of the music app.
still.. lost a bit

yeah i tried it all, but clearing cache didnt work..
i read somewhere that I should fix the permissions through the recovery, but this caused another issue, there is an issue with CWM recovery, on fixing permissions it messes with the permissions of contacts pictures, hence the contact picture wont show up in messages.. so after trying fixing permissions, i got another issue at my disposal, although I did found a solution and fixed the contact picture issue.. but the Music library problem still remained..
I also read that there is a file .nomedia which causes this problem, but removing it didnt do any good either
meanwhile i found twrp released for desire x, and replaced CWM with twrp 2.5(official one, not Yasir's 2.4.3, i didnt know the difference so i just went with the latest one).. and then I fixed the permissions, and I also factory reset my phone.. which erased all of the data, then I copied things back and it all worked fine..
dont know if the factory reset fixed the issue or fixing the permission, as i went to sleep inbetween this whole mess to clear my mind (may be this made it work )

na man.. i thought its fixed as after going through what i have stated above, there appeared songs in the music library while i was actually copying songs, so i thought its fine now.. but today when i opened the music app, i found its showing almost half of the songs.. there are about 103 songs, its showing just something around 65..
i found one more thing, that when i open the Music folder in ES File Explorer, then some song icons contain there album art, and these are the only songs which are shown in music app.. there are 7 albums in the Music folder(means seven albums containing around 13 songs each) and 6 songs directly in Music folder.. in Music app, i get 5 albums, in one album there is only 7 songs shown in Music app while there are 14 or 15.. I opened this album on ES file explorer and found that there are only seven songs in that album with album art, this is when i found this.. this is pretty strange, can someone help me with this?
Perhaps unsupported Format, try Manually adding the Media if possible in your music Player (think you can in poweramp)

i can play all the media files in my phone through ES File explorer Media player, and also by Music app (if i navigate to the music file by my file manager and then play it, though by this method it plays as a popup, you cant multitask, its like a preview thing, plays as long as you dont move away from the popup).. but it just dont show up in Music App, because of which i cant listen to half of my music while doing some other work, alternative is to use ES Media Player, but why the hell does Android Native Music App is sucking so bad? if I am supposed to select best app for myself then why it wont let me delete system apps? (after deleting them they get back after restart)

Do you have tagged all the music correctly? It won't scan it sometimes if it isn't tagged properly...
No I havent tagged them

By tagged music, he meant music with right set of id3 tags (in our case, at least name of song), to check if you have tagged music... is player showing name of song, author, album name, or it is "untitled track XYZ"? If it is untitled track, then tag it ffs (untagged music should be illegal), good tool to tag music quickly a precisely is program called musicbrainz picard, just download it somewhere. try manualy search tags in the files that are not showed up in music player...
Every single song is properly tagged

what music player are you using, have you tried turn it off and on again, clear music players cache and then rescan for music?
using default HTC MUSIC APP

clearing data by going to app settings through app manager solved the issue, i think.. i did this then opened the music app, no songs in its library, then waited for a while just to make sure it isnt searching, and it didnt show any song.. then i opened ES File Explorer went to Music library and noticed that now more songs have album arts, infact noticed some songs getting updated by album art.. then went to music app again and thank god.. all songs are being displayed now..

well I am able to add/change lyrics of my flac files with foobar2000 manually on windows. just right-click the song then properties and then add your lyrics to the "Lyrics" section. But I only do that if my automatic lyricsgrabber-plugin (also compatible with foobar) fails.
but I play my music with poweramp and it displays the lyrics correctly, so I don't know if the stock player can display them (and I cannot test it as I deleted it )

hi there thanks for the reply and it worked but may i ask if there is any way to show the lyrics automatically on the screen when you click on the album cover or something like that and not by clicking the "lyrics" option ?

sorry I cannot answer you for the stock music player, because I deleted it. In poweramp you also have to click on lyrics
But I remember long ago (1-2 years ) I used jetaudio and it was able to display automatically the lyrics semi-transparent on top of the album cover if you checked the correct setting. But I don't know if this feature still exists
