[Q] audio playback randomly pausing - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

I've been having issues with downcast, winamp, and the stock samsung music player with random pausing of playback. Downcast informed me it was doing this because another app was requesting audio focus. This happened on the stock rom and on the current debloated rom I'm running.
Anyone have any ideas?

After researching a bit it looks like this is a fault of Winamp, it asks for audio focus causing other apps to pause even when you're not using winamp to play anything. Just thought i'd post in case someone else has the same issue.

[Q] Choppy Music Playback

My X10a with the rogers firmware has choppy music playback, even when mediascape is the only app open. I've re-installed the firmware 3 times, any suggestions?
Hi,
I seem to be experiencing choppy music on a separate device the Motorola Droid Pro. Using either the built in music player or WINAMP.
It seems there may be an underlying cause to both our problems. Were you able resolve yours?
Have you got access to another SD card? could be a fault on that? what's video playback like?

[Q] Strange Winamp Playback Glitch

No, it's not the one where my music stops at 2 minutes .
I have tried searching for this topic, but searching for Winamp glitch, or Winamp playback issue keeps on bringing back the same threads.
My glitch is pretty odd.
When playing a group of songs from a playlist or an album from a certain artist the song will occasionally insert another track -in the middle- of the currently playing track.
For example:
If I am currently playing Track 1, somewhere in the middle of the track the song will switch to Track 4 but Winamp is still showing that I'm playing Track 1 (with the minutes counting down as usual). If I let it continue playing, towards the end of the track I the song usually switches back to Track 1. If I skip the song it will skip as normal, if I go to the beginning of the song the problem replicates itself.
This does not happen all the time, but it happens often enough to annoy the **** out of me. Anybody experience a similar issue?
I have had this happen...with the stock player AND with Miui player. Just think of it as a mashup!
If it happened more often I would be quite annoyed...
I've had this happen as well using both the stock player and winamp. There seem to be a lot of bugs that Motorola shipped this device with. This one and the front microphone/44100hz sound recording bug are two of the worst in my opinion.

Yeah, a mash up would actually be the perfect way to describe what's happening. Although most times the songs don't match so it sounds like ****
So I guess nobody has come up with a solution?
Edit: Just to add... I won't be too bothered by this glitch if I could simply skip to the next track. The problem is, I usually listen to music during my commute on motorcycle (1 hour each way) and don't have access to the phone controls. So I'm stuck having to listen to the mismatched music till it ends.
Happens to me too.

This has happened several times to me using the default music app. Does anyone know if this happens on other phones or is it our specifically?
Well I came from a nexus one and this never happened. ever! On my atrix I've also noticed skips where its like a bad cd but... its not

I had that problem too.
Just remove Winamp or your favorite Music Player from the Autoclose list in the Task Manager.
Get an app called "HeadSet Blocker" i had this issue on the default one. After using these..haven't had a song skipped yet. Its a widget so make you have turned on.

i use winamp every day and i've never came across this issue. i did previously experience a glitch with the song skipping in the beginning of the song but i no longer have that issue. running GingerBlur v1.3, latest winamp version. I also didnt experience this on the stock rom or on GladiAtrix.
Anybody getting distorted sound? I think it nay be a sample rate issue. Doesn't matter the level certain songs have clear distortion like its clipping but its not.

Try this song on your Atrix. Distorted for me.

I had this happen to me a couple of times
I'm not sure if you are describing the bug I have had or not. I've had the default music player essentially just start taking over when I'm already using a different player. If you are rooted you can safely freeze the default music app and it fixes this problem.
I used to be a big fanboy of WinAmp, now due to too many failures /hickups I moved to MixZing. This player just works and I never experienced ANY problems.
Big thumbs up for that one - I'm never going back.
Try it out if you are not too hung up on ONLY WinAmp...
I've absolutely had this! Glad I'm not alone.
Its happened with the stock player, the leaked new player from a week ago, and even with doubleTwist.
Its rare and each time seems to be caused when I skip a track then decide to go backwards to the previous one.
All through the song its like it wants to skip back to the middle of the one I was on before I skipped back.
+1 for Mixzing. Just tried it now & it seems way better than stock or Winamp. Thanks, Robert_it.

[Q]Is it possible to play music while recording video?

Ive been searching all over the forums and the few threads Ive found asking this question do not really give any answers and all seem to be very old, like 2010 old. What I need to be able to do is have music playing on the music player and then take video without the music stopping. I dont care about sound quality in the recording, I can remaster later if needed. The problem I have is that I only have one device for both playing music and capturing video and there is a specific place and a specific time where I want to take a video of the moment, while also being able to hear the music that matches that moment. Is there any way I can force the music player to stay on during video capture? The video itself will not need sound to be recorded at all, but if it could capture the music in the video, that would be nice too.
I managed to do this with gingerbread 2.3.5 using stock camera and mixzing player.
I also can do that now with my ICS 4.0.4 (cm9), stock camera and mixzing player.
It also works on 4.0.4 with stock mp3 player and CameraZoomFX.
Record video while playing music
Hello, I am running ViperOne 4.3 now and I absolutely love it. I was wondering if any one else is able to record video while playing music as prior to this (locked, not rooted, and stock 4.3) I was able to do so. I did not check this with 4.4 but then again it only lasted 1 day on my phone before I found this amazing rom.
Anyways, if anyone has figured this out or if it could be added to future updates please let me know!!
Thanks,

Audio Skipping?

Has anyone else run in to random audio skipping? Sometimes I open up Google Music, or another music player, and inexplicably get skips in every song I play.
It seems the only player immune to this is the stock player.

Have you tried poweramp/player pro while setting priority to high or something of the sort?

i have had this problem as well....it went away on JB...but jellybean has had other quirks....less annoying but....i did not have it on stock ICS...stock had messaging issues....audio skipping had to go so i have settled on JB.....the quirks for JB have been video and call related...video stutters(minor) and calls not connecting(it took a month to manifest)

Q Music player issue \ music skipping

I'm having issues when playing back music on my HTC one using the stock music player. The playback works fine for a couple of tracks but then the music just keeps skipping on to the next track. The skipping is infinite and won't stop. Even after I kill the app and try to restart the music, the skipping continues. I'm forced to reboot the device and kill all apps running on the phone to stop the skipping, however, even after the reboot when I restart the music player, after a few songs the problem continues. In my search for a fix of the issue I've noticed this to be an issue on the HTC one x. I've tried the disable auto play app as well as trying to use the phone in airplane mode but neither of those fixes have helped. This issue occurs when I'm using the stock headphones and the stock music player. This phone has been otherwise great but I do use my phone as a music player with headphones so I'm hoping someone here can help me out or if not I'm wondering if I should try and have it replaced under warranty since the phone is less than a month old. Thanks in advance for the assistance with this issue.
I'm having the same issue. Anyone? I've also experienced issues with audio studdering badly when streaming. Bandwidth isn't the issue, I know that much... It's especially bad with Pandora

i use isyncr to transfer and sync music between the HTC One and iTunes ... this happened to me once when the app didnt upload my songs correctly and messed up the playlist files. ... erase all songs and start over again .. see if that helps ... it seemed to help me ..

Are you using Google music or HTC own stock APP?
Did you guys do a titanium backup restore?
