Music Player Character Support

On my N70, In my old firmware v3.... something when i went on music player it opened straight away and worked fine, now i have updated firmware v 5.0609.2.0.1, when i open music player, it firtly says opening, but then it says 'a processar' which i do not beleive to be english however my phones languge is set to english.
Also certain songs, like "MAXÏMO PARK" the name does not appear correctly, it is shown as Max(square symbol)o Park, this missing the i (with 2 dots) character and the m next to it... there are many songs which have unusual characters like this but the n70s new firmware does not show them, they were shown on my old firmware, but not on v5.0609.2.0.1
could someone at nokia please tell me if a new firmware will b relaesed anytime soon? and if so will it have full character support?

I have N95 (v 12.0.013). Using Croatian characters. They show properly in WMP11 and Nokia Music Manager, but show only empty squares in device player.
Any ideas?

I didn't understand you.
In WMP right click on the song then select Advanced Tag Editor. A window will open, then select the Pictures tab and hit Add button. Now select a JPG of the album art (it has to be JPEG not BMP or PNG). And add it, now select Album (front) as picture type.
In WMP11 you can drag and drop the album art to the empty CD box of each album or song. Just make sure that's a JPG file and that the file size is less than 200KB.
Now drag and drop or sync the files to your device. Then refresh the library in the device (Options-> Refresh music library)
Ahh, you mean how to do it in wmp,right? well,i know how to do with pc in wmp. i use audioshell. you can get it at www.softpointer.com/AudioShell.htm. what i mean is nokia should upgrade 3250 music player so it can show us album art. b'cuz n70 came before 3250, it support album art,why not nokia music edition like 3250? it quite ashamed a music phone doesn't support this feature.....

Nokia xm 5800 music player "not supported"

Hi everyone,
I just updated my music player yesterday and when I tried to open it on my phone, it wouldn't even open. When I tried to open it from the gallery, it shows "Gallery: feature not supported". I tried to click "options" but that wouldn't open either. However it still shows up on the Nokia Music Player on my PC. And I could still hear my songs by setting my alarm tone. I've tried taking out the battery & SIM card, but still no results. I would not prefer to re-transfer my music since I programmed a lot of information in them and it would take me hours to type them in again.
Thanks!
Solved!

Never mind! The problem has been resolved by a hard reset: *#7370#

And I tried clicking on the music player, and nothing would happen, nothing launches...
Help! ><

Music Player that supports FLAC?

Hi,
Have just bought a ZTE Open with Firefox OS, and have been looking forward to it arriving. Got it yesterday and am generally very happy, BUT my entire music collection is in FLAC, and it seems that:
a) the default music player doesn't support FLAC.
and
b) I can't find a third party player that offers this functionality.
Could somebody let me know if there's a third party app out there, or if the default music player will soon support FLAC? I want to be able to use this phone as my day to day device.

Wouldnt be surprised if this was added into Firefox OS in the future.

Music player with multiple artist/genre support?

Hi,
Can anyone tell me if any of the available media players support multiple values for tags? For example, a collaboration would be listed under both artists.
I find I never use genres because they tend to be really broad, or I have far too many. It seems the ideal solution to this would be a player that supported tags that behave like the type found on blogs etc. I still can't find a way to organise music that doesn't get unweildy with a large collection.
Does anyone have any suggestions for an app that can do this, or has similar functionality?
Thanks.
Fishondish

i was thinking of the same thing....
in my head, im developing a linux based car mp3 player with a custom interface (which i need to build), one of the things i was planning for the mp3 database, is support for tags.. not just the single genre, which seems insufficient...
anyway, not everything is lost, maybe make a feature request to the rhythmbox developers? right now i use rhythmbox's dynamic playlists to include stuff i want to group toguether, but its quite gruesome....

Music player with high dpi support?

I usually use Clementine as music player. Unfortunately, it does not have any hidpi support (3200x1800 resolution on a 13.3'' display). So do you know any good music player with hidpi support?

You could use MPD and either a terminal client, Qt5 client (Cantata), or a web client.
I just looked at the Arch Linux wiki page for HiDPI. The state of HiDPI in Linux is kind of a mess, isn't it.

Music player with lyrics support.

i just want to know.... when would nokia(ovi) would start supporting lyrics in its integrated player?? gurrr!! i have nokia C7-00. its really pathetic to have player eith no lrc support. hope i would find it sooner in coming updats. :-|

Music Player - file format not supported

Had a pair of headphones that didn't connect very well. The feature that pauses when headphones are removed is great: but when I used the bad headphones the music player started giving me the error: file format not supported (for all my mp3 files)
Replaced headphones and issue went away. I also got a software update so I cannot verify what build of 10.1 I was on.
Just FYI if anyone gets the "file format not supported" you might need new headphones.

I wonder if others agree or disagree that these are the current best solutions for transferring media from iTunes to my Nokia 3110 classic:
a) Nokia Multimedia Transfer (v1.4.2)
Good: Once configured it works automatically.
Bad: The iTunes playlists just don't show up in Nokia's Music player.
b) Salling Media Sync for Mac (v.1.1.5)
Good: The iTunes playlists DO show up in Nokia's Music player.
Bad: I need to individually tick all the iTunes playlists I want to appear in Nokia's Music player.

Am having problems with my Zeppelin music player and iPod classic. The Zeppelin, bought Dec '12, and the iPod, bought same time, used to work fine but now when I attach iPod to Zeppelin I get a message that says the iPod doesn't support the accesory!

I bought a Zeppelin music player and iPod classic in December 2012, and all went well until I last synched the iPod with iTunes, and now I get a message saying that the iPod doesn't recognise the attached accessory when I try to connect it to the Zeppelin. I did recently update to the latest iTunes version-could this be the problem, and if so how do I cure it? All help appreciated.

It's still charging when you plug it in. That just means it won't play music out the speaker. If that's what you were looking to do, they have speakers for iPods.

IOS Music Player MP3 Gapless Playback Problem

Hi,
I've been having this gapless playback issue on iOS now for the past few years, since at least iOS 6 if I can remember correctly. The number one reason I use an iPhone and iOS devices is for gapless playback in the iOS music player. For the last few years I've been experiencing a bug with the stock iOS music player on my iPhone 4S using iOS 6 and on my iPhone 5 using iOS 6 & 7, and currently on my new iPhone 6 running iOS 8.1.2. This only happens on my iPhones and using iOS, this bug is not found when I use my iPod classic or when playing the same albums through iTunes.
I thought it might have been spotted by other iOS users and fixed in iOS 7.1 or at least the current version of iOS 8, but instead it's gotten worse, albums that used to play smoothly between transitions now suddenly pause and jump for a split second when changing from track to track.
What's happening is, I listen to a lot of albums that are continuously DJ mixed and play straight through without any pauses between tracks, and I've been experiencing problems a lot now with random split second pauses between tracks and choppy transitions. These albums in question have been ripped from cd using the latest versions of iTunes.
For example,
I'd be listening to an album and it would play gapless and smooth for most of the album, but maybe one or two transitions on the album would have a split second pause between them, and the rest of the album would play perfectly with no pauses, skips or jumps at all.
This only happens on my iPhone, as I have a 160gb iPod classic and I've listened to all the same albums on it and never has a problem playing the album without any pauses, every album plays 100% smooth and gapless on it.
I mailed Apple about it through their feedback page on their site... https://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
Hoping that they would take note of this and try and look into it and fix the issue. That was probably about a year ago now, never got fixed or got any confirmation back from them about this problem. Then last August, I'd had enough and contacted Apple support to notify them about this issue. They told me the usual story, "have you tried restoring the phone?", which I obliged and did. The problem was there on a freshly restored iPhone 5.
So they told me that they would put me in touch with someone higher in Apple to take the case further, "great" I thought.
I spoke with a senior care advisor and explained the problem and agreed to send detailed explanations of the issue and test files too so that they could hopefully hear what I was talking about. But after a few weeks of going back and forward, I finally got them to hear the issue with the random pauses, the first week they denied there was a problem and said the files played ok on their test iOS devices, so I myself tried the files on another iOS device and the same problem was there.
The last correspondence I had with the Apple care advisor was back in the end of August / start of September, and she told me that they spotted the issue and was told by the tech's that it would be fixed in a future update, I never got a when this would happen, I was just told to make sure my iOS device was up to date with the latest version of iOS. I couldn't speak to an actual technician, got no follow up support, just a vague "We'll look into it." Case Closed.
I got so sick of this problem that I sold my iPhone and iPad just after this last phone call with the Apple people, and switched over to Android. I'd being reading up on gapless playback music players and found out that there's a good few available for Android devices. I got myself a Sony Xperia Z3 Compact, twice as powerful as the iPhone 6 and half the price. I was using that for the last few months, and playing my music through Neutron Music Player app which is a great music player which plays gapless 100%
But I couldn't really take to Android OS, seeing as I've been using Apple products for around 10 years now and iOS since the iPhone 3G. So I decided to contact Apple again and see if they'd fixed the music player issue in iOS yet.
I wrote a long email explaining the problem, how it wasn't really looked at properly, and how I was a long time Apple customer and had to resort to switching over to Android because the basic music player functions on iOS devices have bugs. I took a chance in mailing this to Tim Cook's offices, I knew he wouldn't reply personally, just thought that it might get read by someone in his offices with a bit more say in the matter.
Just before Xmas, I got a call from someone from executive relations from my local Apple offices about this. He seemed nice and was aware of the problem from reading back through my emails and previous case notes from August when I opened this case originally.
We had a talk and he said he would get one of the tech's to call me too about this so that I could explain the bugs to someone more knowledgeable about iOS.
A few days later I received a call from one of the tech's at Apple and was chatting to him, explaining the problem. His response was that he thinks Apple doesn't support gapless playback on current iOS devices. From looking at the gapless playback information page on the Apple support site below, it looks like it hasn't been updated to show any iPhone models after the iPhone 3GS... http://support.apple.com/en-ie/HT201644
I was trying to explain to him how ridiculous this sounded, why would Apple stop supporting basic functions on their music player on iOS devices? It makes no sense at all? You can see that the amount of hardware devices and software that supports gapless playback today... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gapless_playback#Player_support
He couldn't explain either, he just said that because it's not listed there on the Apple support page.
Then the next day I got the follow up call from the Apple executive relations guy, he was stating that he was speaking to the tech guy that called me and it looks like Apple doesn't support gapless playback anymore, from looking at the documentation on site.
I told him how stupid this was, and how lots of music players have gapless playback as standard today. And if they don't support it now, then why does it play through some parts of the albums on iOS ok and then just randomly pause, or have jumpy / choppy transitions on the rest of the album. If it was the case, no albums would play gaplessly at all, it would be like when the first ever iPod's were released back in the day with no gapless playback and would pause for a split second between every transition.
He couldn't give me an answer and said that maybe down the line they would start supporting it again, and that I should request the feature to be added to future iOS versions via the iPhone feedback page... https://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
He just kept on emphasising that it was "NOT A BUG OR ISSUE", trying to cover up the problem because the info on the site wasn't updated to show the current iOS devices. Which in itself is wrong, looking at the page it says "Supported iPod and iPhone models (make sure you have the latest iPod or iPhone software)"
iPhone, iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS only go up to iOS 6, so that contradicts itself when the latest version is iOS 8.
The info is out of date and needs to be updated. So in August I was told, "we found the issue and will look into it" and a few months later, "it's not an issue", what's a cop out.
I was annoyed and taken back by this response, and really found it hard to believe that this was the case, Apple stopping supporting their music player on iOS devices. Seeing as iTunes plays everything smoothly and no gapless issues. I just went out and bought an iPhone 6 for €900 / $1060, and for that money you'd expect it's basic music player to work. It's total BS to think that a top computer software / hardware company would just decide to abandon basic functions in their devices, especially when we are talking about how much Apple takes pride in their products and how much more they charge for them over their competitors.
So this is my next step to try and get this problem seen and out in the open more. The more people who know about it and are aware of the issue, the better.
Hopefully more people can get the word around and get this noticed by Apple and finally fixed.
I've uploaded some test files below to show the problem. The files are mp3's and aac, and have been ripped from cd using the latest version of iTunes. The mp3's are the ones with the issue, but the aac play with no problem. If you listen to the transition at the end of track 2 (2-02 Colours (JH Re-Edit)) going into the start of track 3 (2-03 Your Body), you will notice the split second pause / jump. But listen to the aac version and compare it to the mp3 version and you will hear that it plays back fine, just as it's supposed to. Try them in iTunes too and both versions playback fine, no jumps or pauses.
You can download them here, all links have the same files, I just uploaded them to different hosts for other people's choosing...

https://www.sendspace.com/file/lubcmc
More files can be provided if needed to show the problem happening on various other albums.
I really hope that people can spot this issue too and help get this fixed, I know this gapless playback feature might not be important to some people, but like I said at the start, it's an essential function for me in a music player and I use it on a daily basis when I listen to music.
Thanks for reading this long rant of mine, appreciate it.
Ger

I believe this issue occurs only between songs that iTunes has converted to a lower bitrate for you during transfer to your iOS device and songs that it has not done this for. Take this Between the Buried and Me album, for instance. I have marked all of the transitions that should have been gapless but probably aren't in red. I know for sure that most of these marked transitions are indeed broken and that the most of the transitions not marked in red work flawlessly... I honestly can't remember whether or not some of these transitions were gapless or not, but the many transitions I do remember working or not working match up exactly with whether or not the songs on either side of the transition were also on other sides of the 256kbps threshold, the threshold at which I enabled iTunes to convert tracks to 256kbps AAC.
I'm going to try re-sync'ing my library with that "feature" disabled and see if it fixes my gapless playback problem. Will post the results once I test it out.

E63 & E71- Music player's equalizer does not work ...

I would advise to all the owners of the E71 and E63 that Nokia disenable the equalizer of the music player when you put the headphones in appliances. After updating the unit note that the equalizer only works with the sound of the speaker and the equalizer does not work with the headphones anymore.
I ask you to please click the link below and make their complaints about this new firmware that "destroys" the equalizer for the music player that Nokia fix this terrible problem!

Oh my. That is a big problem. Fortunately for me, I don't use the equalizer so it doesn't really affect me all that much. But still, I have no idea how they could just randomly break something like that.

Iphone 4s ios7 music player was not working, here's a bug fix.

hi there
i had a problem with my wifes iphone 4s, today morning while travelling to work i changed a setting on repeat option and changed it to repeat artist, it was fine until when i finish my work and on my way back i found songs are not playing anymore, lots of stop signs next to my song list, play/pause button not working, album arkwork keep moving from one to another on its own, so after i reach home i try to do some research on Apple support communities, try to soft reset my phone closing all the apps on background didnt work, also note that control centre music player was not working as well. none of the solutions worked. after trying for two hours i found out that the trouble is in repeat options , so i changed it from repeat artist to repeat off. and the music start playing as usual, but i still have those stop buttons next to the songs i tried to play earlier. At least it fixed temporarily. please also note that in the meantime i tried to sync my phone with the pc and suddenly its start syncing all the songs again assuming there were no songs on my iphone. so guys i think soft reset might not help all the time but try to remember what settings you changed recently and change it back to the original option, not sure ,but it might help. hopin this will help some of you out there. and i already feed it back to Apple, so hopefully they will fix it soon.

Not sure why you are having problems. I have had no problems with my 4S playing music after the update. Hopefully you will get it worked out.

Can I use the Podcast app like the older iOS 6 Music Player?

I've updated to iOS 7 and iTunes 11.1 and found that things seem drastically different.
How i used to do podcasts:
Subscribe to a podcast in iTunes on my Mac
Sync to iPhone using a cable
What used to happen:
Podcasts that were selected to sync did if there were unplayed episodes
The Music player would list only those podcasts where there were unplayed episodes
Now things have changed. I immediately was told that none of my podcasts were playable without the Podcast app. I downloaded it and installed it.
What is happening now:
Still subscribing to a podcast in iTunes on my Mac
Sync to iPhone using a cable
Podcasts showing unplayed in iTunes on my Mac = 46
Podcasts showing unplayed in the Podcast app = 57 - the difference appears to be that the podcast app is showing non-downloaded podcasts
Podcast app showing all podcasts whether or not there are any to play. The list includes podcasts that are not supposed to sync to my phone.
The Podcast listing appears to be in a random order (actual list shown)-
Apple Keynotes (no episodes)
This week in Photo (8 episodes)
Jake and Amir (no episodes)
Podcast Beyond (no episodes)
Accidental Tech Podcast (no episodes)
Vector (1 episode)
Podcasts with no new episodes now show a new episode though it looks like the episode is not downloaded
I'm not sure why what is being shown in iTunes is not being shown in the Podcast app.
Is there anyway to get the old behavior using the Podcast app?

Additional information. Can this be right?
I spoke to Apple support who said that the settings for podcast syncing in iTunes are no longer being used since Apple moved to their Podcast app.
This may explain why I see all 45 podcasts on my iphone when I only have 15 of them set to sync.
She also said that I would need to manually sync listened/unlistened podcasts between my Mac and my mobile devices since podcasts were no longer being synced from iTunes.
Can anyone verify?
