why on music player (im using stock music.apk on minicm7, but it happens on all music players) instead of title there is the name of the file (for example: screamandshout.mp3), a random album image, and on artist there's ''unknown artist''??
sometimes they show the right title, album and artist, but sometimes this happens...
how to solve this? because it's a lot annoying...
please reply who knows the solution, please
i'm sure there is the album artist title because i edited them with iTag app..
Use iTag from Google Play, which makes you to search for right cover, set titles, artists and more It is very useful.

i've already said that i've already tagged the mp3s with iTag, but on music player it shows only the file's name (for example: qwerty.mp3)!!

I'm looking for a music player that reads the album artist (or band) tag of music files, if anyone knows of one. Or a means to modify existing players to read this tag. So far I've come up with absolutely nothing.
Appreciate it!
Do you mean like album art showing up? I re-tagged all my music on my pc, making sure artist/title/album and corresponding album art were all correct and the stock music player reads it just fine.

I think he's referring to the fact that the Samsung player can't handle more than some small and finite number of artists. If you load too much music, it gives you an error when searching by Artist.
I just downloaded the new WinAmp and am definitely digging it. MixZing is also good if you need EQ.
What I mean is reading the ID3 tag value for %album artist% or %band%.
%band% is what WMP12 and iTunes use for their album's artist. %album artist% is used by most other players (foobar).
WMP12 uses the %artist% field for contributing artists on the track, which is how my whole music library is tagged (so none of my songs have ft. Kanye West in the title)
For an example song, The Fire by The Roots, featuring John Legend
%track% - 11
%title% - The Fire
%album% - How I Got Over
%album artist% - The Roots
%band% - The Roots
%artist% - The Roots; John Legend
%genre% Rap & Hip-Hop
The problem is that all of the music players I've encountered thus far read the %artist% tag as the album artist, so what I get is a ridiculous artist list like
The Roots
The Roots/Dice Raw
The Roots/John Legend
The Roots/Mos Def/Styles P./Dice Raw
The Roots/Truck North/P.O.R.N./Dice Raw
Which is a huge pain in the ass, because I can't easily select all the songs by the roots.
I don't have a problem with the artist list crashing in Samsung's Music Player, but I do have a problem with it and Cubed both crashing when attempting to search music. Also, Winamp's search just flat out turned up no results. Yet ringdroid's search works great. Lame.
I do have a gripe about Samsung's display of the album art, as every file has 500x500 px art embedded yet it displays junk art. But that's for another day.
Hi All,
I am new to Android and Atrix is my first android phone
I am looking for a music player app that can download lyrics and show it while I play song.
Thanks,
Sudip
I know that Tunewiki does this. It was a nice feature for popular songs, but more obscure lyrics were out of the question. I am on PlayerPro now for the nice Artist and Album picture-seeking abilities and more aesthetically pleasing widgets, skins, etc.
[EDIT] I'm glad you posted this. It made me find "Lyrics App" (free) which shows the lyrics of the song you are listening to. Works with PlayerPro and more!

I looked at your post, but my phone is not rooted...so I can't install .apk file. But thanks anyway.
You don't need Lyrics App if you have Player Pro. In Player Pro, while playing song long press the Album Art to get the Lyrics option.
hey,,bt where is the player pro????
hey,,,dude but hw cn i download player pro??
On the android market search playerpro. Cost $4.99. Tunewiki is free and does this.

Dudes, connect media player does that!(original music player from motoblur, aka music+ in the atrix)
Try miui player theme in the x10 theme forum its free and works perfect on mine use the black signed on page 5 or there's a blue that doesn't work as good on page 2 I think.

"music and lyrics"
Ok, so I've been using the stock android music player for over 2 months now. It has all the functionality I want in a music player except maybe editing tags (album name, artists, etc) and finding album art (Album Art Grabber is my current solution to this).
The problem I have been having with this player is that when transferring music to the phone via 'Windows Media Sync' option is that sometimes the album art will not appear on the phone (happens to quite a few albums) and also the tags will be messed up. For instance, just recently I turned the phone on and was browsing my music library and all of a sudden the song titles appeared in lower case (ie. 'Tighten Up' became 'tighten up') I know this is a small thing but I find it annoying a little. Other things like artists will appear as 'Unknown'.
Anyone experience these problems as well? What programs/apps do you guys use? I've tried out poweramp trial version and it does allow my to edit tags but I was wondering if there is an app that is a sort of one click 'Find Album Info' like in Windows Media Player?
Check the music player called Neutron on the app market

Hi, I really like this app called lyric music Extention which is a Extention for the Walkman music player. I am running 14.2.A.0.290 stock unrooted... According to the app description in the play store, I'm supposed to see a infinity simbol in the Walkman app to access it but I don't see it? Pls help!

Tap once on the album cover, three symbols will appear on the right. The secon one is THE ONE.
Looking for a little help on music player apps. Specifically, a tablet running 4.3 (should be updated to 4.4 in a month or two according to the manufacturer), all music will be on SD card.
Currently, all my music is album oriented and sorted by Genres, then Artists, then Albums. This works on my iPod in my car (both iTunes and car software work flawlessly) and on my MP3 player (both MS My Music and player software work flawlessly). I start with Genres, find my Genre and click, brings up Artists within this Genre in alphabetical order, click on my Artist and brings up the Albums, click on Album and the songs, in album order, come up. Click on the first song and the album plays all the way through.
I haven't found an Android music app which will do this. Many sort by Genre, then go into directly into Songs, in alphabetical order. Many sort by Artists, but with over 20gb of music and hundreds of Artists, this takes forever to get to ZZ Top.
Anyone know of a music app which can go from Genre to Artist to Album? If this approach works with iTunes/iPods and MS Music, I found it hard to think I haven't found an Android app which can do this. Tried about 20 players in Play Store and haven't found one that does this. All help is appreciated. Thanks.
P.S. No playtlists; no single songs; simply albums by artist catagorized into genres.
Have you try some of them?

All of these only allow single level searches. I'm looking for something that allows a three level search; first, genre; second, artist; third, album.
It seems ironic I can do this with iTunes and MS Media Player but not with Android. I must be missing something here.

Mixzing
In case anyone is looking for the same thing, Mixzing works. You can set it for Genres; click on your genre, it shows the Artists. Click on your artist, and it shows the artist's Albums. Click on the album you want, and it shows the Songs, in album order.
Exactly what I was looking for.
