Looking for a good music player application........

Hey everyone,
I am still looking for a great music player app for the Bionic and wonder if anyone could provide some good suggestions. The apps I have tried have all had something wrong with it
1) The bionic stock app is ok, but the lock screen widget is very small and a pain when driving and have to be precise when hitting the skip button, otherwise, it dissapears
2) Google music app doesnt have a lock screen widget, wth?
3) Power Amp is probably my favorite, but has 2 big bugs...ill be listening to music thru my ear buds and when i get any sort of notification, the music goes thru the phone speaker, and i listen to my music very loud. Also, when listening to music and having navigation going at the same time, the music still plays when the navigation voice kicks in, on other apps, the music stops
4) MixZing doesnt have an option that allows you to go to the home screen from the lock widget, it only allows you to go the device lock screen making you have to unlock the phone twice
As you can tell, the lock widget is a big deal since I listen to music in my car often while having the navigation going. Any suggestions? I may just trash this phone with the data issues and drop another 300 for the Rezound since the reviews have been good (so far) but until then, was wondering if there is an all out good music app out there.
Thanks everyone!

Stock lock screen does not normally support 3rd party widgets so you wont find any third party players that allows you access while on lock screen.. As for the player I perfer Meridian Media Player Revolute from https://market.android.com/details?id=org.iii.romulus.meridian&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsIm9yZy5paWkucm9tdWx1cy5tZXJpZGlhbiJd

Looking for a good music player app

Hi.
I have a problem. i'm looking for a good music player app for my new iphone (which i will buy my next month) in terms of playing music. after having 3 phones in the last 9 months i'm still unhappy.
Had a Samsung Galaxy Ace. sound was above average but due to underpowered processor + RAM (and Samsung stating they won't update the software anymore) i had to sell it.
Than had a Sony Ericcson Xperia Neo but felt the sound was "flat" and bland" and left me disappointed and uninspired coming from a well-known phone maker know for its audio & visual expertise.
Now, i currently have the HTC Desire S. umm although the sound was "Ok" with its usual pre-set equalizers (common among Android phones) and SRS sound enhancement it felt me wanting more and although i have the phone for a week now i would say "so far-so good."
but i heard the best music phones out there are those with either Beats Audio (which are very brand new) or the ones with Dolby Mobile.
had an iPod touch (4th-gen) and i was amazed and impressed by the sound quality.
so, if i can get away with a good music player app that recreates surround sound, has good preset EQ's along with customisable ones and one with Dolby-like support which app would you recommend?
Thank you.

Looking for a specific QuickTime player

Hi,
I'm looking for a specific QuickTime player. The one that has the interface with round buttons like tear drops and not the flat buttons the we have today. I think it is in version 6 of QuickTime but I'm not sure. If someone could send me only the player. If you need a picture of the buttons, I can send you one...

Vlc for opening Window media player

Trying to download vlc-2.0.1 dmg and I get a message that "Safari can't complete the download because there isnt enough free disc space". The staus on my hard drive shows 916 GB available, so I don't understand. Had no trouble with other downloads (Office 2011).
Anyone have any ideas, or know of another program for opening windows media player?

That misleading error message sometimes results from moving a Safari download before it's complete.

DVD looks fuzzy in Windows Media Player

Hello,
I've created a DVD in Encore 2.0 that has uncompressed quicktime files and high-res .tif images. The DVD works fine but when I play in a client's Windows Media Player, the elements look soft. I went back to the project and checked everything and they looked fine coming out of Encore.
Could it be the monitor settings for Windows Media Player? We seem to have the problem when viewed in full-screen mode. Or can it be that the Media Player is having problems with the quick time files? Is it best to convert the QT files to AVI before importing into Encore?
Any help is much appreciated...thanks

> also, the dvd decoder that windows media player uses isn't the best. try using PowerDVD, i've had better luck with that one.
This is very misleading. WMP uses the MPEG-2 decoder you installed with your commercial Soft DVD player. There is no default MPEG-2 decoder installed with Windows XP - it is not there. No Soft player, WMP will not play a DVD.
>go to file/transcode/edit project transcode presets. here are the settings i use. feel free to suggest better settings.
This is also misleading. As a general rule of thumb, allow Encore to use the "Automatic" mode until you learn exactly what all these parameters actually do, or you may well end up creating a file that is not DVD compliant, or will not play properly. Max bitrates of 8.5Mb/sec is asking for trouble with writen DVD.
> DVD resolution is 720x480 (assuming NTSC). Your monitor resolution might be something like 1280x1024, 1600x1200, 1280x720, 1920x1080, etc. Viewing the video at full screen will make it look "soft" because it is being scaled up to your monitor resolution. View it at actual size and see how it looks.
Great advice. As WMP does not have special firmware to upscale SD resolution properly, it will indeed look "softer" than it should for exactly these reasons.
Set top players that can upscale are a different kettle of fish altogether.

Some DVDs for School, Downloaded Media Player for Mac but still...

(I apologize if this is in the wrong area, but I am sure I will be notified very quickly.)
I am in a bind. I have these Multimedia Symposium CDs. I have been trying the iDvd to see if they will play, but maybe there really is an important difference between CD and DVD. Anyway, the lace that made them told me they re DVDs.
Anyway, in the manual that came with the 12-pack, of course Mac is not listed as a "Minimum System Requirement." They are about 5 years old (I really could not afford the brand-new ones and they are exactly the same except they have not been open yet.
I was able to use StuffIt and get Windows Media Player (the latest mac version) downloaded and right away it wanted to play some DVDs and CDs on a website abut the Grammy's. Both just music and a DVD (music and video) worked great from this site.
I seem to meet all the other requirements except under Processor it says; "IBM or 100% compatible PC. This is a MacBook Pro which means it is not a PC, right? I am not up on a lot with the computer field, especially the picky stuff like this.
A little about the install of the applications. (I know how much you guys love detailed and long Posts so I will keep it to a screeching halt, or I should say I will try.) I followed Stuff'Its Instructions, which basically said just to download it to the desktop, drag and drop it in the Program (I assume the Applications and Programs folder are pretty much the same.) and you are good to go. I did not even look to see where StuffIt went, I just knew it successfully dropped into the Applications folder. After that, I have no idea about how it knows that the Windows Media Player ( (I think it is ) is the latest for Mac.
As usual with mac once I played a song on the Media Player from the desktop, I noticed over 10 icons that were not on the desktop before I started this much needed task. This is another question all together, but why does Mac put nearly everything on the desktop? I tell it to go other places, and it puts the application, folder, file, song, etc. in the place I request but it also puts it on the desktop. Something that is interesting, I opened an icon webmail.csv icon n the desktop and it is from Numbers (I think the application is called. it comes with iWork and I have never used it.) Anyway, I opened it and it was a spreadsheet of all the people I have in an old address book with about 50 columns headings and about 5 for each name filled in. Very interesting.
So, I can get the Windows Media Player to play. (BTW every video/song I try from the web it leaves an icon f that song/video on the desktop with the Media Player as the icon.)
Does anybody have any suggestions how I can get thee to play? They were new when I opened them unless they plastic wrapped the box, but I asked for a used box. Everything in the box looks clean, no scratches on any CD or DVD, but I really need to view these Multimedia CDs
I will end the Post by saying that there are 3 Required Programs listed under Required Programs. I have 2:
1. Internet Explorer version 6 or above
2. Windows Media Player 9 or above (I have the one that says it is the latest for people with a Mac)
3. Adobe Reader version 5.05 or above (I have Adobe Reader 8).
Thank in advance for any help, if there is any.

This is a very long and confusing post, to say the least
You may want to have a look at these articles to familiarize with your new Mac:
http://www.apple.com/support/mac101/
http://www.apple.com/support/switch101/
Regarding your more immediate problem, having a better idea of what you're trying to use is required before we can give you meaningful advice.
First of all, what is on the discs you are trying to use? If they are commercial discs, they must have a label of some kind that indicates what are are.
Then, when your insert a disc in your MacBook Pro's optical drive, what happens? Do you see a disc icon appear on your Desktop?

Looking for a good flash player / plugin

I have a lot of people asking me to compress there projects to flash lately. I have the flash video 8 encoder and it does a decent job. My work has Sorensen Squeeze but we tend to have it loaded up most of time compressing our own stuff. Does anyone know of good plug-in for final cut pro or just a play flash player that will let you look at file size, bit rates and fps like the movie inspector in quicktime?

You can get the Adobe Media player, it's free, still in beta. It's so beta-ish, doesn't even have a version number.
FLV will not play by itself, it must be loaded into a SWF preject, usually inside a browser. The Adobe plyer is basically that but the browser window is invisible. Sort of.
If you do much Flash encoding, know that you can use H.264 and merely change the file extension to .flv. You should invest in CS3 for the Adobe Encoder and the Flash application.

Am looking for a good video player for IOS 4.1

Hello all. Have an IPhone 3GS for which I am looking for a good (free) video player? Any recommendations?

There certainly is... a video player has been included with every version of iOS.
In iOS4 all media is accessed via the iPod app. iOS5 and later seperates audio and video into two apps, "Music" and "Video".

[Solved] Looking for a simple music player

Hello there,
I'm looking for a music player for a box I'm currently building. I only need it to have a GUI, playlist support and random playing. I've thought of xmms2, but the standard package comes without GUI and I haven't found any clients with random playing.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

as simple as they get:
xmms: (not xmms2!)
audacious:
audacious is a form of bmp, which is a fork of xmms... they're all basicly the same, audacious is more up to date though.

I am looking for a new MP3 player. Can you please help me pick one o

I used to own a Creative Zen Micro (6GB) but it died on me due to hard dri've failure. So I am now looking to purchase a new one. I need one that can meet the following criteria.
a.) Flash Based (The mechanical hard dri've ones break too easily.)
b.) Does not require software to transfer music on and off the device. It should use the USB mass storage device class protocol, instead of MTP or PDE. This way I could put the device in my friends computer and copy or transfer files off, without the need for additional software.
c.) Good navigation capability with ID3 tag reading
d.) At least - 4 GB. (I am not going to be away from my house for long periods of time so I don't need to carry a whole lot of music with me.)
e.) Does not require any conversion of audio files. It should play MP3 nati'vely. Nati've OGG playback is an optional plus.Message Edited by GMBazillion on 2-2-200608:57 AM

If you are looking for a Creative player only The Zen V and Zen V plus are good options. I think they will satisfy most of your requirements.
Strike that, I don't think this will act as an "external hard dri've" as described in bMessage Edited by fdreinthea on 2-2-200605:37 AM

Looking for AppleTV2 Network Media Server

will the time capsule act as a media server for my apple tv or will it just back up my files? Looking for a good network media server thats not to pricey?

The only media server that will work with the Apple TV is iTunes on a computer.

Office for Mac: windows media player and Napster?

I have recently bought an iMac g5 and have had Microsoft Office for Macintosh installed. Last night I was having my first general rummage and discovered that I appear to have a Windows Media installer included in the software for Office. I have a Napster account and had previously assumed that I would not be able to access it from my iMac.
Could anyone advise me whether it would be sensible for me to try to install Windows Media from this Office for Mac package, and whether it would cause any issues with iTunes or otherwise?
If anyone has any experience using Napster on an Apple (hope the coincedence of those words in the same sentence is not too sacreligious), please shout, whether good or bad.
Thanks in advance
James

Hi,
There is indeed a version of Windows Media Player for Macs. However, it is version 9 whereas there is a later version for PC's that is much more full featured. In addition Microsoft have recently officially discontinued Windows Media Player for Mac after not updating it for years. This means that it does not work with Napster unfortunately. However you can use Windows Media Player for Mac to play back Windows Media Files without copy protection (DRM) such as windows media files from the internet. To do this you can install Windows Media Player for Mac. Alternatively Microsoft suggests that you use the Flip4Mac windows media player plugin (www.flip4mac.com/wmv.htm) which allows you to play back Windows Media files using Quicktime Player.
I find this to be a superior solution (It is also free) as the experience is more seamless and it supports more formats. Therefore I suggest you download and install this and do not install windows media player.

Watching AVI (Media Player 10) on Macbook WinXP environment (BootCamp)

I had find out a problem about watching AVI movie (Media Player 10) on Macbook WinXP environment (Boot Camp). System will be slow down (frame rate drop) when I plug out the AC adapter (run on battery only). Eventually, it is stll a beta version.
MacBook Mac OS X (10.4.6)

This is most likely because Windows will reduce the speed of the CPU while on battery power in order to preserve battery. There should(?) be a setting burried somewhere in the control panel which lets you disable this.

Looking for a decent music player

I know there is a lot of similar topics on forum, but no one did not respond to my question.
So far I have tried Exaile, Rhytmbox, Pragha, Decibel, Goggles, ... and so on.
They are all good players but have some critical flaws.
Exaile is maybe the best of them, but it is slow with large collections.
Pragha is fast and light but does not support pulse and multimedia keys wont work with it.
Decibel is next best thing after Exaile.
Goggles is fast, but ugly, media keys wont work, no pulse support and its GUI is confusing.
I have even tried mpd + GUI, but such option is just too complicated to setup for simple music player.
Okay, this is my personal opinion. What do you think?
I just need player with ease of use of Exaile but faster with large music collections.

I'd suggest you buy a faster computer with lots of memory and keep using exaile.
Regarding GMM:
1) media keys: we try to grab the usual XF86AudioPlay multimedia keys. If they don't work, it usually means they're already grabbed by some other application or desktop environment (I noticed this with gnome on a ubuntu installation). In case of the desktop environment, remove the default keybindings for those specific keys. Another case it might fail if the multimedia keys don't have the usual XF86Audio* keycode assigned to them.
2) For pulse support you need a pulseaudio plugin for xine. Either file a bugreport with Arch to enable the building of the plugin, or create your own custom xine package.
3) I'm always happy to hear suggestions to make the GUI less confusing.
