Hi,
Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions for preventing duplicates showing in Google Play Music.
I have my primary music collection uploaded to Google Play Music (cloud stored), and I also have a handful of song stored locally on my device. The songs on my device are used as alarm tones, etc.
I have found that having songs stored locally & on the Google Music cloud, will cause duplicates. Just wondering if anyone knows a way to get Google Play Music to consolidate each track entry within Google Play Music, so the cloud & local tracks only show as a single listing.
Using the .NoMedia file in my devices music directory is not an option, as this prevents my alarm app from detecting the local songs.
Thanks for any help.

so i was trying to organize my library today, accidentally renamed over 1100 songs to Eiffel 65 as the artist. No idea how something like this happened.
Anyone have a program that can analyze mp3's and rename them? I should be able to download all songs from my account, hopefully scan them with something, and then re-upload them with the correct names...
would be ridiculously amazing if something existed that could scan my google music account directly and re-name them, but I doubt thats possible.

There are Mp3 tag editor apps, but I don't think Google Play uses that kind of Mp3 tags, maybe if you edit the tags in itunes.
Otherwise you could consider getting another music player, thought I don't know anything about Google Play Music and buying music.
There's an app called itag in Google play. Those songs the app is unable to match you will need to do it manually
I use Google Play Music as my main music player. I have all my music online, nevertheless, I don't know why some music from games are shown it my list. I would like to listen only the songs I have online (avoiding the music in my Device).
Do you know it there's an option in the app? I tried with a file called ".nomedia" inside the folders which have the music, but it haven't work. Any idea?
This has been a problem since google music first became available. It only seems to sync one way (desktop to cloud). If I delete a song in my music folder it remains in Google music. Same happens if I edit a songs tags. Is there any way to get it to sync both ways. The desktop program says it's "monitoring" my music folder so why is it not deleting songs out of the cloud when I delete them from my desktop? Very frustrating.
??
wondering the same - listening in if anyone has an answer...
This is the 3rd time I've posted about it since Google music and there is no more info on this topic on the Web now than there was then :/
anyone know how to get all your songs from google play music, the music that is stored on the device, and have them play in a different music player rather than google music player?
Your media index
I know android indexes media files, so any music player from the store should be able to access what's on your phone. I'm not aware of any player besides Google's that will access your cloud storage, though.
Hi folks,
I am currently using Google Music to select the music I want available offline on my device (Nexus 4, only 16GB). I have some playlists that I can update whenever I come up with a new song and as the playlist is marked to be available offline, this new song is synced to my phone. Works quite well for the phone.
But at home when I want to stream music to my audio system via DLNA this doesn't help. I can't use these playlists.
My music is stored on a NAS at home and there are playlists on it too.
Is there an app or something that lets me select playlists from a network device and then copies the content of this playlist, along with the playlist to the phone?
This way I could ditch Google Play Music and avoid maintaining my playlists in two places.
