Hi,
I have a problem, when i try to update my library on media player it finds them all the trys to add them and it just gets stuck half way through?
Any ideas?
Thanks
Jason
delete a hidden file
Sometimes the library gets corrupted. Try this
1. quit media player
2. open file explorer, and check "Show All Files" menu option
3. Locate and delete the folder MSMETADATA from the root (mine is in the root of the Storage Card)
4. Restart media player, and rebuild your library.

Since wmp takes up 60% memory when playing mp3's who do i make tcpmp the default player? everytime i click on the icon to start up music on the htc home screen it always starts up wmp and i dont see a default option anywere on tcpmp.
you have to open tcpmp , go to settings, select the page with file asociations and check the box for mp3 files

i've done that and it still opens up wmp as the default.
in the htc home customizer there's an option to select wmp as default player or audio manager, when i select audio manager, i get file can not be opened, one of it's components can not be found. Is there something w/that i need to do?
bumping, any help on this? i have mp3 checked on tcpmp, but it still opens up wmp as the defualt when i play music, unless i manually select the tcpmp player.

First install the WMDecoder file to your device and extract the two files (wma and wmv codecs) to the Windows folder, using Resco File Explorer or Total Commander, soft reset your device. Get the WMDecoder file download here http://www.mediafire.com/?19gjvmjzylt .....! When your device comes back up, go the TCPMP/Player> Options> Settings> Select Page> File Association>, Check mark {ALL} the blocks and make sure you see {Windows Media Audio files}, by chance if you do not see this file, then you must reinstall the two WMDecoder file (wma and wmv codecs) to the Windows folder again. Another file which is the key file for making the TCPMP/Player the Default player is this file, Windows metalfiles(ASX,WMX,WVX,WAX), make sure the block for this file is check marked. Have fun...............!

I have a strage behaviour on my diamon's tf3d music library, I copy my Albuns to Internal Storage/content/music, at first all went fine, the library updated with new files after powering on the device again, but the problem appears when I delete some albums directly with explorer, even after powering off and back on, the music library still shows the deleted albuns ...artists...song...etc related to the files that are no longer on the device, I cant find any library reset or something like that, and the info on the mobile wmp library is correct, so I cant understand where does tf3d music library info comes form.
Anyone ?
I am having the same issue. Any help?

You need to rename the follow file to "AudioManager_Eng.vol.vol"
Device/Application Data/HTC/AudioManager_Eng/AudioManager_Eng.vol
Soft Reset . . . . New AudioManager_Eng.vol will be created.

I had that similar problem last time, get advice from SwiftBL and plus few tries . . . The conclusion is:
If Album Art embedded in mp3 songs, u might have problem. What you can do is copy all your mp3 file to InternalStorage/My Documents/My Music/xxx
xxx = Your individual Artist Folder, copy a jpg file(or the album art) rename as folder.jpg
Then do the following steps . . .
You need to rename the follow file to "AudioManager_Eng.vol.vol"
Device/Application Data/HTC/AudioManager_Eng/AudioManager_Eng.vol
Soft Reset . . . . New AudioManager_Eng.vol will be created.
just one thing, get rid of that tab and use S2P
I might be missing something really obvious here, but how are you supposed to create the .nomedia file so that the music player won't see files from system folders? I have a whole bunch of mp3's appearing in my music player because of Real Football 2010. If I try and create the file on Windows 7, it says "You must type a filename". Any help?

Open notepad, rename file ".nomedia" and change the file type from txt to "all files". Try again, report back.
rename it on the phone
Easier way is to create a folder directly inside the one that has the music files (did this on letsgolf it has tons of sounds) just tap create folder and name it .nomedia works for me.
Creating .nomedia folder in windows 7 solution
1. Goto command prompt : Run->cmd
2. Goto your flash drive e.g. F:
3. Goto you desire folder e.g. CD gameloft
4. type "copy con .nomedia" and press enter
5. press F6 and press enter.
This will create the .nomedia file in windows.
Old thread but here is a no Computer needed option:
Download ES File explorer (its free)
Install and open it
Navigate to the folder you want to exclude (remember it propagates down e.g. if you place it in the root of SD then the whole of SD is excluded including all the sub-folders)
Press Menu and select "new"
Select "File"
Call it .nomedia
Rescan your memory Cards
Sorted no PC required
thanks all above

The easiest way. Download and use from market the studio kuma .nomedia manager.

Does creating a .nomedia file in a folder also stops it from scanning lower folders?
Ex.
\Mystuff
\Mystuff\lotsofstuff
\Mystuff\lotsofstuff\pics
Will putting it in \Mystuff stop it from scanning the lower folders?

I have created a ".nomedia" file but the pictures in that folder still shows up in the gallery.. Anyone have similar experience?
Using SE Xperia Arc.
Restart ur phone so that media scanner runs once...
Gallery excluder is another app from the market you can use, even to restart the media scan afterwards to apply the changes.

You can open notepad via Windows->notepad and ctrl+S to save it (with blank content), in the "File name" field, you type ".nomedia" and in the "save as Type" field, you chose "All files (*.*))"
Good luck!:good:
No need to create file or using an application
You don't need to find a way to create that file. Connect your mobile to pc by USB and browse in your sdcard. Enable show hidden or system files from your operating systems file explorer. Find a .nomedia file and copy it to the new location you want. This is more practical. Also if you have a root explorer on your Android, you don't even need a pc.
AW: How to create the ".nomedia" file....
Another way doing this (imo the best):
1. Open terminal emulator and navigate to the folder
2. Type: touch .nomedia
3. Done

I'm confused. Are you saying it didn't see media before and after the file was in the directory? Did you restart?
I just added MP3 files to my phone into the 'Music' Folder where all the other music is. They do not show up in either music apps I have installed. Ive rebooted in homes that it will scan and find them but it didnt happen. Any suggestions?

You can't add files to a playlist if the player app doesn't recognize them.
How did you add them, by copying them to the Music folder on your device? I sybc them to the device using Windows Media Player and have zero problems.
i had an issue with my first captivate deleting my music files too.
returned it and havent had an issue since
BUT that first phone was running rogers 2.2 stock. DID you just update to 2.2 stock?
i run custom now only
Hello,
my Xperia Z3 Compact doesn't recignize any music files in my internal memory (I don't have a memory card). I found out that as my phone suddenly stop ringing (I had some mp3 file as a ringtone). When I go to settings>sound>ringtone - I choose app I can pick the file through and when I choose walkman or any media player, there are no files to be chosen. When I pick the file via some file manager (I go to music folder and pick my song) I see all my music but when I pick some, nothing change.
When I start walkman I cannot play any of my music files - the app doesn't recognize music folder.
Firmware 4.4.4
Thanks for any help.
Did you try to reboot the phone? Other two steps i would try: 1. to install any other music player. 2 Reinstall phones firmware
