"Separate" volume control - music and ringtone - Windows Phone 8 Apps and Games

This is not a true separation. The app merely re-adjust the system volume to predefined levels based on whether music is being played.
In case anyone wants such functionality. Here is the .xap file. Link should be fixed now.
A few screenshots

Very cool! To save us the effort of decompiling the app, do you mind sharing the source code? Does the monitor service run constantly, or does it act like a normal background agent (30-minute checks)? Does it require any capabilities or have any restrictions beyond dev-unlock?
By the way, download appears to be broken.

Nice but where is the xap ? Link is wrong.

As of now no background agent/monitoring. Only works if the app is used to play/stop music.
only dev unlock is required but I am using an library from another guy, whom I have not been able to contact yet.
I'll send you the source code in a minute. I'm sure you can make it better.

Nice music player, but for me not useful (I use only the native player, and I thought that the app has more functionality). THX

thanks for trying ?
the only thing it does is to put the system volume to a high level when you stop music playback so you won't miss a phone call because ringtone is not loud enough. Similarly it brings the volume down before playing music. I know some people want such functionality.
other than that it's just a soft volume slider and soft power button. And a shortcut to completely mute the phone.
I'll add some more functions such as picking a certain album/song.

I want to do this to slender man for android so i can listen to the soundtrack from the pc game
i think an app like this is possible to make but i browsed google play store and haven't found one, hopefully in the future some dev will make this kind of app
in the meantime what you can do is mute the whole system volume and use a different device to play music
also email the game's dev tell them to add an option to mute the sound

Doesn't work on Android 7.1.2 :/
Hmm, so no dice on this for Nougat? I would love to mute a game that always starts with the volume up. I can change the volume in the game, but only after a lengthy, loud intro, and it resets the volume the next time I play it...
Anyone found solution?
Solution (for Samsung Phones)
If you happen to be on a Samsung phone, there is an app called "Sound Assistant" which is excellent - adding volume sliders for whatever individual apps you like.
Samsung wastes a lot of money and frustrate a lot of people customizing & bloating Android, but this *optional* app is great and should be mimicked by Google into base Android!
Nope no solution for this problem
Hmm, still nothing?
Maybe try using something like VMos and running the app in there and disabling sound

DESPERATELY looking for a lightweight and simple music player !!!

Hello,
Please help me to find the music player I'm looking for. My requirements:
- A clean playlist (no artists, no genres, no album arts, no ratings, no lyrics, JUST FILENAME)
- An equalizer
- To be controlled by the handsfree button (play/pause and next track by double-click. More clicks - highly appreciated)
The closest to this idea of mine, which I was able to find, is tiny player. I liked it a LOT, but it doesn't have any equalizer...
And I have tried so many other players and they are TERRIBLE, especially starting with winamp, which I like so much for
PC!!! The Android's version is absolutely not acceptable for me!

Hello and thanks for your answers. But all of them are connected to Cyanogenmod.
I would like to install it, I even checked their page. BUT I'm afraid that I could screw
up my phone and/or lose my warranty.
Please recommend a normal installable app.

Hello and thank you!
I gave it a try today and it doesn't work at all :-/ It didn't show me even a single folder !!!
I see the message select a folder or whatever on the top and everything below is black!!
I'm gonna send an e-mail to the developers to report this bug.
Trying to download this, I found another player - EZ folder player free. It works very
nicely with my headset button, but it doesn't show the playlist and doesn't have an
equalizer...
Actually it makes me VERY SAD and VERY DESPERATE - WHY all the music players
need to have a huge icon showing NOTHING in the center and wasting the whole screen ?!?!?!?!
WHY there can't be a program, showing the playlist, as Winamp on a PC and 3 buttons
for play/pause, next and previous song? IS IT SO COMPLICATED ?!?!? And an
equalizer, of course!! Come on, guys, this is Winamp from 1993 !!! And in 2012, this
doesn't exist anymore !!!
My device is Samsung Galaxy S2 with ICS (4.0.3).
OK, regarding Music Folder Player - I can not see folders only with the paid version of this app.
I have also tried to install the free version and it works. I have also installed Music Volume EQ:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=hr.podlanica&feature=search_result
This is a MUST have app!! It has an extremely nice bass boost function and now listening to
music is a really nice experience on my SGS2.
So, back to Music Folder Player - this is the player, which I will be using for now. It is by far
not perfect, but it seems to be quite working. Major disadvantages:
- it plays folders only at one level - if you have a folder that contains mp3 files and subfolders
with more mp3 files, it will play only the lower level folder. If you select some of the subfolders,
it will play only the subfolders, but never the parent folder. REALLY annoying, but not fatal
- It writes media information files to EVERY directory with music
- The equalizer does not change almost anything and it is practically useless. But this can be
solved via Music Volume EQ, so it is a really minor problem.
But it is a very customizable player and I like it a lot! Nevertheless, I am more and more
convinced, that the perfect mp3 player for Android does not exist yet
Although, there a some players in the style I like - Music folder player, EZ music folder
player, tiny player, etc... There must be also more of them. Please suggest some...
Come on, guys!! No other cool apps? I can't believe it...
I am using kamma's folder player. It supports rom's native equalizer app. UI can improve a little but pretty much suffices what I need.
Best Music Player
hi,
Try this one i am sure you would not search for anything else.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.omichsoft.player
It supports Playlists,folders, genres, artists, albums and songs list.
Supports device internal equalizer.
shows itself on the Lockscreen.
and all this for an installation size of around 350 kb.
difficult to justify some (most) paid music players against this one.

This thing was last updated in July 2014 so most probably not polished for Lollipop.
The old player actually has more features while this one has the looks.
i wish they had taken the trouble to just update the old version..

I also miss this feature greatly. I used it all the time while on CM7 and HD2.
I found this app on market, but since I cant buy apps in market from Serbia I havent tried it.

I am not sure if that is possible with any app if the rom doesnt support it.
In CyanogenMod if I am not wrong ability to change tracks while long holding volUp/Down buttons is a feature of CyanogenMod itself, not the music app used.
That was very usefull to me, for example while driving home from work and listening to music via smartphone. I could just hold the volUp button to skip the annoying song. Now I cant do that. At least I havent found a way.
Anyway I will check PowerAMP. I might be wrong so it's worth a try.

Record internal audio [HUAWEI Mate 10 Pro]?

Hey there,
as you probably know, it's forbidden by google to include a function to an app to record the internal sound. That's the reason why all audio/video-recorder-apps (like AZ Screen Recorder) only allow to record the microphone(s).
Is there anyway a solution to record the internal sound, for example with a cable? But only the digital way via USB(-C) and not the analog way with the phone jack which causes side noises! Do I need a special OTG-Cable?
If I connect the original USB-C-Cable to my pc nothing happens really.
In the dev options in the android settings I can de/activate the usb-audiorouting (but I can see no changes)
I also can choose 'audiosource' in the usb-config. If I plugin then to my computer, there is no new 'microphone' in the audio settings. In the device manager the BLA-L29 is listed, but the drivers are marked as corrupt.
Can somebody help me to finally have the power to record the internal sound? Thank you!
Perhaps try a Bluetooth recorder? I came across this after a 5-second web search; I'm sure that with a little more effort you could find many more varieties.

Update: Huawei Mate 10 Pro Screen Record with Audio
Hi
I'm a Streamer and mobile Gamer, Just updated to Official Stable Android 9 on my Mate 10 pro and they actually provided a new screen recorder that can record internal audio but..
Here is the issue i'm facing :
1) When using the screen recording app and i turn the microphone off i'm able to record system sounds on any app and while its recording ,however the speaker sound is turned off so you wont hear anything until you stop the screen record. Also if you enable the mic the screen recorder app will record audio from your mic
I hope this could help Devs to take a close look at this , all we want is that to use a screen recorder which records System audio and mic just like the IPhone to allow us to stream our games to platforms like Youtube, Facebook, Twitch, Omlet Arcade without buying a IPhone .
I understand google bans devs from accessing this API : Internal Audio, but what if Huawei just develop a app like Samsung Game Launcher where only games and Streaming apps like Twitch, Youtube, Facebook Live, Omlet Arcade are allowed to access the Internet Audio Recording Function?
And BTW to all those trolls , we not requesting bloatware its a just a simple screen recorder or a Gaming Suite/Launcher app for our Mobile Gaming Community
Regards

Zune Music app

Hi everyone,
here is my app for my music site zune music
it uses youtube API for the videos and audio and uses soundcloud api to pull artist info and track names
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zunemusic
please download
Thank,
John
This is app is clean as hell!!!
Good looking out best of luck!
Hey thanks would appreciate some reviews on Google play and any features anyone wanting to be added
Thanks
John
Are you able to add a lockscreen or status bar notification icon?
Also is it possible to have an option to have the nav bars not automatically hide?
Thanks
Hi
Thanks for the feedback I'm currently looking into the navy bar as I agree it's a bit annoying sometimes and the lock screen notification I'm busy looking into this
Will keep you posted
App looks great however I would love to be able to sort by music genre. Main page shows songs / music types for example which I never listen to.
Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
I expect Microsoft to file some sort of lawsuit over using their Zune name. But nice app!
You know that Zune is the name of Microsoft's failed MP3 player and failed music service, right?
I got one ad on launch, however the app leaves me hanging on login screen and other pages with no way to go back and I must exit the app and open again. Needs attention to the back button or a consistent nav bar. Nice job John...!
Yeah I can't believe you didn't realise this name was already taken by Microsoft. Pretty poor show if you ask me.
Thanks for the feedback a new version is out now on a faster server and I am starting the process of rebranding the app is now called ZStream and we currently addressing more issues and we have removed add until we find another way to present them
Thanks
Great app, are you able to add chromecast? For streaming to soundbar
