PowerAmp not playing any files - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

Does anyone use PowerAmp? I tried playing songs off of it on my new N7 and it keeps saying can't play files. I am able to open the files up with Google Music or the file explorer.

My poweramp is working fine over here on stock, cleanrom as well as cm10.2. Try another third party music player and see if that also fails, if it does then theres something else wrong thats not just poweramp related.
If its in any way related, in quickpic i was not able to use the hide function because the media storage was messing with it, try clearing data on media storage and see if it works.

Nope. Songs play fine on the new n7 with poweramp for me. Not sure why it isn't for you. I know there was just an update to deal with some 4.3 issue, but other than that I don't see why it shouldn't work. Are you on the stock rom or custom?
edit: nvm, I just saw your sig. Your on a custom rom...

I can play music with other media players just fine. Except in PowerAmp. It just keeps giving me errors saying Failed to Play File. I'm on CleanROM 1.2. Stock kernel that came w/ rom.

A'ight, give me a second. I just install cleanrom 1.3 to see if I can replicate your issue...

My gf and I both got our N7 so I decided to try PowerAmp on hers as well. Same result as mine. I ended up using Rocket Player for the time being.
We are both on CleanROM 1.2. But I don't understand why it would cause PowerAmp to not be able to play any files and we can still play from any other media player like Rocket Player, Google Music, ES Media Player, etc..

idk...poweramp and all other players (including streaming apps) work for me on clean 1.3. If you're not running any audio mods, and tried to uninstall and reinstall, I'm not sure what the problem could be. Maybe try updating from 1.2 to 1.3? Backup apps and flash. What could it hurt to have the latest rom anyway...

mine did the same. there was an update in the play store to make it work right on 4.3 and it works great now

Yeah, that's what I was saying before. Poweramp had an update for 4.3. I probably didn't notice it because I just downloaded the latest which has the 4.3 update...oh well...

Ya that's what I thought too. We downloaded the revision 530 which supposedly has the 4.3 fixes, but still isn't playing.
EDIT - I updated to CleanROM 1.3 on my & gf's N7 and now PowerAmp is playing files normally. Not sure why CleanROM 1.2 broke the app.

[Q] Google Music not working on ICS 4.0.3 CM9, b.0.2.3

Hello!
I can't play any song on Google Music app with the ROM ICS 4.0.3 CM9, it always force-closes the application. Anyone else with the same problem?
Didint try that ROM yet but it works for me with sandvold's latest. Did you try other music players like poweramp, winamp etc from market?

It works fine with the music i have in the sd card with google music and other music players, it crashes with the music i uploaded to the google music account.

Oh sorry never tried that. I was thinking of normal playback from SD card.
I am getting the same thing. I have tried moving to /system/app, removing stock music app, as well as several versions as well, as has been done on other ICS devices, with no success.
I updated to b0.2.4 and i'm still having the same issue
I was in the same boat, but the only way to suceed is to use a 3rd party app.
For example DubbleTwis is a really good one
The problem is being handled in the main thread of this ROM.

which cm10 did you download? I'm pretty sure all of them come preinstalled with apollo....anyway video player is in gallery, and music player you can download from google play. google music is ok but personally i prefer playerpro, available in apk online

Audio and video players arent a part of gapps. You can find mx player in market for video or Apollo for audio.

weird... but either way, gapps doesnt hold any of those apks, so you need to get them separately

[Q] google play music player

album art loads sometimes without any problem sometime i have to click the like icon on the player then the album art comes up.
Dont know weather this is aknown bug or only with me?
This may be unrelated entirely, but when I installed the MusicBox mod this morning, Google Play Music started having issues...but it was force closing, not having album art issues. Like I said, may be unrelated (and probably is) but thought I'd let you know if you have installed MusicBox recently.

Try using PowerAmp or the stock music player.
Musicbox wont work with PA but u can enable beats.
Anyway try some AOSP Rom if u want to play with Enhancers.

Well, the only reason that I have been sticking with Google Play Music is because I have all of my music online (and can manage it online), so I do not have to take up valuable storage room on my SD Card with music files. Is there another music player out there that will utilize my collection on Play Music other than Google's?

Music issue on MOAR v8

I recently did a clean install of MOAR v8.0 from v6.1 and have noticed that all the System .ui sounds ( .ogg ) are in the music folder in the My Files app., which means that they are also sent to the Music Player app. So when I was driving home yesterday and streaming the music through BT, all the system sounds like Alert_on_call.....Cam_Stop and all the others....plus all the sucky music like Birdsong, Fairy Fountain and such will start playing.
I have tried to delete them from the Music Player and the My Files apps, but they will not delete. I have also tried to move the files from the My File app to another folder, but they will still remain in the Music File.
Also, in the Astro File Manager, when I select the Music folder....none of the system files show up.
I have read and searched through the MOAR thread, but can't find an answer and I can't post there asking this, but How do I move the sound files ( .ogg ) so that they will not play in the Music Player app?
Well after 3 more downloads and clean installs.....it seemed to work itself out....I do still have the 'hangout' sounds in there. I can deal wit that for now though. :cyclops:

If you download a music player from play store like poweramp etc you can specify your music folders to play from and then you wont get system sounds

Yeah hangouts itself puts it in there, not much you can do about that
If you delete it, it will just keep coming back, but you can make a ".nomedia" file in there (without quotes of course) and it won't show up when you go to play your music (basically tells the media scanner to skip that folder)

Yea....I tried several different players but they all played the System Sounds. I did move my playlist to the external card and n7 player worked fine. Thanks

Haha....I didn't even think about .nomedia.
I read soooooooooooo many threads, posts and different topics on a lot of different forums that my head spins. LOL
So far I haven't heard the hangouts beeps, but if I do it's fine........I mainly wanted all the stupid samsung crappy songs/ringtones out of there.
I just ordered an AN-21 U about 2 hours ago, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2528349 ...... so hopefully I won't need to use my phone for music after next week. :fingers-crossed:
OhYea......THANKS for all you have contributed to MOAR !!!!
