I noticed that the default music player for MIUI 8 can't play some MP3s, so I downloaded Google Play Music.
However, it doesn't seem to work either. So I checked and found that most MP3s that can't play either have file size > 8MB or < 1MB.
It seems that the music playback is limited to certain file size range.
I think there are some other apps that can do. But I wouldn't want to have 3rd party music player if there's a stock app within the System. I hope there's a fix for this.
Thanks in advanced!

Hey guys, I posted this in another forum, but never had any responses. I've also searched this site quickly and didn't see anything regarding this.
How well does S-Voice control music? I always play my music through bluetooth in my truck and I think it would be great to be able to change songs through voice commands. I've seen videos showing that S-Voice can start playing music, but none showing that it could actually play a specific song on request, (i.e. play *insert song here*). If S-Voice is not currently capable of doing this, would rooting the phone accomplish this with certain mods? I have never rooted a phone and I am looking forward to taking the dive with the GSIII.
And finally, when using S-Voice to play songs, will it only play through the stock music player, or could you play songs through Google Music?
Thanks guys, I really appreciate your help!
Hi there I assume if you make a third party music the default it would play from there but maybe not as then it wouldn't have the integration, I could test it if you like. And as far as music control goes its very good you can do loads of commands such as:
play
pause
stop
skip
then more advance commands like
play > alex claire too close
play > playlist bike songs
That is awesome... I do hope there is a way to make Google Music the default player as I much prefer streaming my music as opposed to taking up storage space on the phone.
Well I downloaded PlayerPro as I can't get Google music in the U.K (not legal anyway
) and I made it the default music player. Unfortunately even after doing this S-Voice will still open the song in the default Samsung music player.
Okay I purchased music using google play music. I can listen to the music offline with Google Play music, but my default OEM/factory Galaxy music player doesn't detect the music I purchased. Also I found out Google stores the files here:
/mnt/sdcard/android/data/com.google.music/files/music
When I went to that dictory I noticed the MP3 file was named 724.mp3 I'am able to point poweramp to that folder and play it but with the galaxy I don't see any options to force it to point to any directories. I like using the Samsung OEM player. Is it possible to get my default player to play this?
Funny thing is when I use root explorer to play the song it uses the Galaxy music player to play it but when I goto the Galaxy music player it doesn't detect the song.

if you use the play website rather then the app you can download it a certain number of times, just as MP3s. You may have to do that on the computer. You can allow download the music manager on your computer and it will download your whole library without it counting against your download limit... But you do have to download the whole thing, then add what ever album you want to your phone. I prefer to just get a big SD card and go this route. I just download and manage my own music, and think of the online copy as a backup.
Not a perfect answer, but at least a version of what your trying to do, if you were unaware.
GMusicFS is an option, but probably won't do exactly what you're asking either.

Hi all. Quick question:
I have google play all access, and I have stored the music locally on my device. I was wondering if there is a way to get all of my google play music files to play through the HTC Music app. Reason being, I want to install the Harmon-Kardon edition mod, but looks like the most benefit comes from using the HTC Music app. Does anyone know how I might go about sourcing all the google play files onto the HTC Music app?
Stock rooted, S-OFF, with latest OTA
Thanks!

The Harmon Kardon mod is really about enhancing compressed music, though it also supports 192khz via flac's, but you are asking about Play Music, which is compressed, even at high quality. The bottom line is that the mod works on all music apps, from Spotify, to Google Play Music exactly the same as it does for the HTC Music app. Technically, you can play the G Play music mp3's on any player, if you are rooted. You just need to move them to another folder. The down side is that the G Play app names all of the songs numerically, like 7483.mp3, so in the end, you are better off just using whatever music app you normally use.
another thing you can do is go into your default.xml file and edit the line pertaining to music channel (turning it on the rebooting, making sure the change has been saved). This allows me to play my playlists off Google music with the HTC player features, giving me access to the visualizer, lyrics (when applicable) etc, and the HK mod icons are active
Soon as I start a song, I get a notification that Music Channel is available, I click the notification and there it is
For those who like me can, in Google Play Music, upload and download music to Google's Cloud:
I have several questions, where Google Play Music download the music files?, they compress the size of the music files?, is there any way to share music from Google Play Music Downloaded Files (music that i upload myself)?
I explain a little bit my situation, i have a Motorola Moto X and i used to have music downloaded into the device, the size if i calculate it, it was sorta 4687MB, but in applications menu Google Play Music only have 1873MB on data, when i deleted all music from Google Play Music, the data goes down to 130MB, i think for music in cache.
Hi!
I can play FLAC files from within a file manager (EZ File Manager and Root Explorer). I get asked to use "Music" or "Google Play Music". Both work, but only a small music player opens!
But I can't get the FLAC files in the stock music player (in the list of music). Any ideas?
The FLAC songs are on external SD, but so are a lot of other songs.
Regards, Hode

You should probably download some other music player from Google Play.
Any recommandation?
I must say that stock music player is very good. Also tried google music with no luck
