Keep in mind that this is work in progress. Generally there's lots of issues with configuration changes (screen orientation, exiting activity and so on), mostly they are not handled at the moment, cause I prefer to implement new features first. Holes will be plugged when everything is ready. As for Amaze - don't know. It is hard because real phone names differ from producer's names (which I am seeing) and there's hardly any name that rings a bell apart from i9100 (that's my phone :))

One X, man. No memory slot. No exchangable battery. Is HTC becoming new Apple?

Have you created a new one either manually (header context menu) or via room/headphone calibration? Presets serve one purpose: keep your various room correction data and headphone profiles. If you listen through onlty one set of headohones and don't use xenoAmp in car/bathroom/living room then one profile is enough. Right?

Additionally xenoAmp can (not at the moment) automatically load particular preset when docked in car dock, desktop dock or when headphones are plugged.

I don't quite get the idea of volume control separate from system setting. This causes weird results on my phone (Sony Xperia S), plus also when I'm in the audio settings and press volume rocker, it changes system vol, not app vol.

I also noticed visual bug in playlist - currently playing track is not marked in any way.

Oh, and recently I noticed some app crashes with some tracks, always the same ones, in same place (at the beginning) but not every time.

Otherwise the app is way cool, good job :)

( Tap Tap Tapatalk @ SXS )
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
OK, let me give a few reasons:

1) System volume is 15 steps (0-15). On my device 14 is too quiet 15 is deafening... Which one should I choose? I guess other devices may have similar problem.

2) System stream volume is master for all audio streams on your device. It's system preference. Like screen brightness. It is set to some particular value because it is most comfortable for the user. That's what I learnt from users in this thread. Users who were annoyed because xenoAmp set their stream volume to 15 and then all of the sudden an SMS comes with a roaring BAAAAAANGGGGG! that almost fu*ks their brains out. So xenoAmp doesn't change your system brigtness, system language or system volume. But still - you have a preference to enable fiddling with system volume, check it out.

3) xenoAmp volume is 50 steps, much more comfortable to find perfect level for you. I can make it any number of steps (in reality probably less than 32 thousands). Don't you think it's better than lousy 15 step scale of system volume?

You can send me the tracks causing problems, I will investigate them.

Ah, and if volume rocker while in xenoAmp causes sytem vol change - that's a bug. Will be corrected.

@ssuukk

I am currently switching between rom's so i don't have xeno installed right now but here's what i found out after testing it out

1.Pinch zoom + clicking works on music sheet :laugh:(yaay!)

2.Everything working as it should

3.There seems to be a bug with the lockscreen.First time it locks after xeno is launced it unlocks fine.But after that it won't unlock.(I had "hold back to kill app" selected so i just killed xeno using that :/)

4.Scrolling seemed a little slow but maybe its just my phone acting up again :p :silly:

Will send you a logcat for the lockscreen thing later.:good:

Installed the new version, i still have problems with rating. After putting files manually into music folder and rescanning the library, i get ratings from 0 to uncountable stars (from side to side over the whole display). Rating itself works fine. But after "options" -> "remember forever" (that is the way to wright them to the id3-tags, not?), i still don't have the new ratings but some curions ratings in the files (when opening them manualy on desktop). What am i doing wrong?

Thanks for any help, mats
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
I don't think you are doing anything wrong. You see - I don't know what really is stored in rating field of whatever file format. XenoAmp is using 0-5 rating, but the field in your file may carry some completely different information. If you see lots of stars this must be the case. It would be helpful if you told me what should be the rating of the file and send it over to me so I could check what's stored in the tag.
[Android Apps and Games] jazzboyrules:
Thanks for constantly improving this app. I am using the latest version (0.78) as of today. No complaints.. the app is becoming more and more stable with each release.

I haven't tested each and every feature on this but the following works great:

- calibration of my Bose in-ear buds

- rating music (new stars in-app! :) same old stars on lockscreen)

- normal music playback, volume control

- noticeablly reduced lag when exiting Xenoamp lockscreen!

UPDATE:

- Sorry to say this but I was able to make xenoamp repeatedly crash when playing with the experimental loop song/playlist/stop feature. Here is the logcat: https://www.dropbox.com/s/z8fzfp4padivzgp/xenoamp2012-11-09-17-05-47.txt

Also the long press to loop song works only when long pressing on the albumart section of the song in the playlist (which we bring up by pulling up the 3 dots). If I long press on the text portion of the song, the loop function does not change. The problem with long pressing on the album art is that I can easily move that song to a different location in the playlist while trying to change the loop function.

[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
It's been a beautiful autumn day (hope same for you, unless you're downunder and it's spring), even national Day of Independece couldnt spoil it, so why not publish a small bugfix release:

RELEASE 0.79

- Fixed rating (ID3 rating is 0-255, xenoAmp 0-5)

- Fixed: volume rocker now changes xenoVolume in all activities

- Fixed: hardware search key now functional in all activities

- Track marks now refresh immediately

And it's really enough to long press playlist entry anywhere to put a mark. Playlist and track loop surely works, stop causes FC. :laugh:
[Android Apps and Games] jazzboyrules:
LOL. My bad, copied file path instead of db link :P I have updated that post with correct link.
[Android Apps and Games] bartoloandre98:
Hey awesome music player.Dunno but can't seem to be anywhere. Is there an option to just shuffle all songs instead of having to put them in playlist?
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
Good thing I am preparing this movie about shuffling tracks... Heh, probably worth putting a shortcut somewhere for easier access (what about puting it on a widget?), but citing myself from few posts ago:

1) create new playlist and make it active

2) go to Xeno Root

3) go to DJs

4) long touch "100 random tracks" and select "toggle into playlist" from context menu.

5) was it added? Touch it... 100 random tracks begin playing. Each time XenoAmp starts these will be other 100 random teacks!

6) because "100 random tracks" is a playlist entry, you can put "20 Century Fox" fanfare before it and this way your playlist will start with Fox fanfare, and the play 100 random tracks!

You see XenoAmp isn't really for playing random tracks, but it is still able to. Not as easily as "classic" players, though.
[Android Apps and Games] bartoloandre98:
Aaahh I see,now I got it how xeno root works. .Dang it is amazing.You can add a shortcut on the widget if you want.BTW maybe I'm annoying but is it possible to add jellybean like notification(can expand) kinda like power amp or zplayer?.Would be like putting the cherry on the cake for me although it is still beta..Thx a lot for your help and for this feature packed app!
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
You mean one of these really big notifications? What would you like to see there?
[Android Apps and Games] bartoloandre98:
Yea.As seen in the screenshot.They can be expanded when there is space in the notification drawer.The big album art and both the artist and album name being visible is neat:)
[Android Apps and Games] jazzboyrules:
Here's another idea on how a music player's detailed notification in JB can look: https://www.dropbox.com/s/6mzjqxbe0z33l0a/Screenshot_2012-11-12-17-22-30.png

This one's from the podcast player app Beyondpod.
[Android Apps and Games] daimler1727:
I was listening on Joe Satriani's Crushing Day while tweaking on the Sound setting of XenoAmp. It was initially good until I turned on the Virtualizer and Bass Boost. Suddenly, the music was like stuttering to even as low as level 2 of both settings. I tried tweaking again the two settings on other tracks and it did the same. The mp3 file has a variable bit rate, normalized on 93db.

I hope I didn't miss something.

EDIT:

1) There are some tracks where the Bass Boost and Virtualizer works normally though... At this point, I would assume it's random because I can't narrow the reasons yet. :(

2) Even the equalizer seems to cause stuttering on some tracks. :(
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
Aaaah, so it does completely nothing besides screaming "mine's bigger"? OK, I like the idea.

Seriously you're the first with this problem. The only thing I can tell you is to wait for 0.80, I am rewriting and cleaning playback engine, I suspect currently in some circumstances DSP effects may be applied twice to audio stream, but I am not sure. If new engine doesn't help you all I can tell you is: wait until I prepare rockbox codecs.
[Android Apps and Games] daimler1727:
By the way, I have ZPlayer installed too. It's my main music player as of the moment. Will that matter? Anway, I guess I'll just have to wait for version 0.80.

The new user interface concept really rocks! I'm starting to like navigating it.
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
The only thing that could matter is Cyanogen (and probably AOKP/AOSP) system DSP manager, which may interfere with xenoAmp DSP. I have a piece of code that writes Cyanogen DSP preferences instead of xenoAmp internal, but unfortunately these prefs are not write enabled for outside world.
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
OK, this one is a biggie. I didn't want to delay it anymore, so there's a bug in "big-****-notification" - currently play/prev/next don't work and I don't know what am I doing wrong. So all people with Jelly Bean - sorry.

RELEASE 0.80

- Rewrote xeno audio engine from scratch, WARNING: as with each change to vital functions this one might have introduced new and annoying bugs

- Automatic audio profile switching works, set profile for car/dock/headphones in behaviour prefs

- Fixed some bugs in moving tracks around currently played playlist

- Removed double click in music view when zoomed in to tracks, I'll see who will complain...

- Added full database rescan option for people who change tags outside of XenoAmp

- Preference to allow half star for 10-step rating scale

- Tweaked xeno lockscreen a bit, tell me if it still shows erratically

- Feeling short lately? Jelly Bean large notification will give you that missing extra inches

- Internal: mixed headphone monitor with dock monitor

So test it so I can push all these tasty changes to Play market!
[Android Apps and Games] AGiLiT:
Well, I guess that would be me. ;)

My thought on this is just like the option to double-click on an album and have it become the current playlist and play immediately, there should be an option to do the same thing for a single track. The only way I know to get a track to play immediately is to press and hold on the track and select 'Play'. That adds the whole album to the play list, unnecessarily, in my opinion.

Initial impressions of the release:

So far, so good. Only thing I noticed so far is player control (play/pause) on notification bar are not working - just opens the app. I seem to remember that working at some point.

Search now works with search button on phone. I know that was a couple of releases ago; I haven't had much time lately, so haven't been keeping up with trying new things as they appear.

I like the new font choice in the playlist and file menus. Any thought of bringing that over to the music library?

I like saved audio profiles for multiple environments. Very cool!

One thing on the to-do list I'm hoping will appear someday soon - album title on the WPS. It's on the lock screen, but I never use that.

I'll probably be using it pretty extensively throughout the day today, so If I find any other goodies/baddies, I'll post later.
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
Aaaah, right. OK, so I can do a double-click one track as a preference in next release. It could work also in file browser I think.

I checked it right now and it works here. Could you tell me again what android version do you have? I think 2.x something shouldn't be able to have working buttons in notification, but if it worked some time ago I might be wrong, which would be good...

Know what? It's the same font. It might look different, because the size is bigger. But I am going to synchronize the sizes later.

I keep postponing it, as there will be sheet and wps rewrite, so it's very likely that I would do the same work twice. But don't worry - that one will come together with record label.

Great, and I'll try it on commute.

I've read today that Texas is preparing for secession?
[Android Apps and Games] bartoloandre98:
working great!and that jb notification came better then i expected xD .Thanks alot, only issue is the one you already mentioned.Play previous and next doesnt work in notification

Also sometimes when i change the song the info in the notification drawer doesnt update,keeps showing info of previous song.
[Android Apps and Games] jazzboyrules:
Given the size of the notification, there are many more things that can be added to the notification that can't fit or won't be elegant in the non-expanded notification.

So the compressed notification could show,

- Track name

- Play/pause, prev, next buttons

- Kill button to quit the app

The expanded form of the same notification can add,

- bigger album art

- quick rating: thumbs up/down or even star rating

- circular progress bar borrowed from the xenoamp design concept

I am not too creative, but with more creativity, I believe much more functionality can be added to the JB expanded notification bar than just the big-**** look :) Interested people can pour in more ideas.

UPDATE after updating 0.80:

- The JB expanded bar gets bigger than I expected. But it looks good if an album art exists. Otherwise that space stays empty.

- Did the 0.80 change the sensitivity in detection of a swipe to perform a prev/next track function vs change volume? What I mean is that if I initiate a cw/ccw rotation for volume change starting with a horizontal swipe, it changes the track. But if the same rotation is initiated with a vertical swipe, volume changes fine. I believe I have always initiated volume change gestures with a horizontal swipe and never before did the tracks change by mistake.

- System UI crashes every time followed by Xenoamp crash every time I access the JB notification to switch to Xenoamp. [logcat: https://www.dropbox.com/s/wp1fa3vnbi8zy91/xenoamp2012-11-13-11-16-36.txt]

UPDATE 2 reverted back to 0.79:

- The false skipping of tracks which trying to change volume (starting with horizontal swipe) does not happen any more.

- Of course with the old notification back, no more force closures of System UI and Xenoamp.
[Android Apps and Games] mats18:
0.79 for me just worked fine, but i can't start 0.80 (force close). Uninstalled by TitaniumBackup, deleted the xenoamp folder and tried to reinstall after new downloading.

[Android Apps and Games] AGiLiT:
I'm on 2.3.5, but looking at some other posts, it may not be just a version issue.

Yee hah! Texans can get pretty surly when you start messing with our personal liberties, like the right to be incredibly stupid and politically ignorant. While I'm sure there are plenty of people in the rest of the country that wouldn't miss us if we did leave the Union, there's really no way it could happen.

---------- Post added at 10:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:39 AM ----------

I'm not having trouble with changing volume either up (cw) or down (ccw). I tend to use more of an upward motion than a horizontal motion, to begin a volume change, but I tried to duplicate your issue and couldn't.
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
OK, people it's the problem with big notification. I'm posting 0.81 with big notification temporarily disabled, so you can test further.

And surely I didn't touch curve detection sensitivity for volume up/down (I can do that, though, the algorithm decides if it is a straight line or a curve based on standard deviations from some samples). So just be sure that you do draw a curve, as straight line will surely be interpreted as... well... a line = track skip. It doesn't matter where you start and which direction you sweep, the curvature matters.
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
Release 0.81

Turned off big notification, for those who had problems on start.
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
Indeed some good ideas, implementing them would be a bit tricky though, as this big notification is created from "Builder" which is kind of wizard really, completely unflexible, but providing consistant look for notifications. To create controls you described I would have to look into BigPicture notification builder (or whatever it is called) source code. It's doable, of course.
[Android Apps and Games] mats18:
wow, that's fast... 0.81 works flawlessly for me, great
[Android Apps and Games] BillyD325:
Hahaha!

Ok that's too funny! Uncapacitive fingers! ROFL!
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
Feeling extremely lazy today, so here you have this:

RELEASE 0.82

- Fixed: profile data getting zeroed when xenamp starts in autoprofiled mode

- Fixed: 100% custom big-**** notification, working buttons, lots of space, so make your suggestion on what controls would you like there!

- Fixed: starting xenoAmp by clicking media file in external browser

And here's the big-**** notification for non-jellybeanians to see:
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
Oh my, I gotta check. It's very likely I am living in Texas, too.
[Android Apps and Games] jazzboyrules:
Thanks for quickly fixing the JB notification! Now the app's stable once again. I find having a button to kill an app in the notification itself (as in Google Music, BeyondPod).

I have few feature requests. Let if know if you think worth implementing. It would be great if you think so :)

- Ability to quickly edit the tags of the "now playing" song. Right now, we have to manually search for the currently playing song in the playlist by going into "Files".

- Ability to quickly delete a song. At times I wish that a song never repeats again. It would be great in those times to be able to delete that song and free up some space on the phone.

A suggestion about the "Query" function. Right now when I select <= 1 star, it shows 1-starred songs as well as unrated songs. So I can't filter out only the songs that I don't like. If you plan to implement a delete function, it would be nice to select songs having one and only one star from "Query" and delete all of them at a go.

A bug in Xenoamp lockscreen? I can't use the Prev button in lockscreen to go to the previous track in the playlist. Inspite of swiping over the Previous button as fast as I can, it simply restarted the current track but never switched to the prev track.
[Android Apps and Games] xcal321:
I'm getting NetworkOnMainThreadException at startup (Jelly Bean 4.1). I had just added files located on my NAS, when XenoAmp crashed in the main view when I pressed the volume buttons on my keyboard (TF700T with keyboard dock). Let me know if you need a logcat capture.
[Android Apps and Games] BillyD325:
Genre is not importing properly

I have searched the thread and have only found a couple of references to this problem, and only that it happens but nothing about it being addressed. I use Banshee on my computer to organize, play, and edit my music files. When I synchronize my files with my phone (HTC Amaze running themed ICS Energy ROM) they come over fine, but most of the albums have a number in parenthesis instead of the genre. It appears that, for instance, songs with the genre of "Pop" come over with "(13)" in the Genre field. I am able to edit them manually but when I rescan they get changed back. Is there anyone else experiencing this? Is there something about how Banshee generates tags that causes this? Or is it a linux thing (I am running Linux Mint 13 "Maya")? I have build 0.81 installed, but this has been happening since I first installed on build .76. And yes, i have completely wiped my database and reimported from scratch. Didn't make a difference.

As I've mentioned in earlier posts, I love this app because it is different, minimalist, and just a fantastic concept. It is so different from all the me-too apps out there. As it is still a beta app I am aware there are issues. I am just pointing one out that doesn't seem to be happening to others.

Thanks for your hard work and quick attention to your users' concerns!

Lock screen issue

Sorry I meant to put this in my last post. I have tried the XenoAmp lock screen but it just doesn't work for me at all. When I try to unlock the phone I can see the ring appear with all the options, and can drag my finger anywhere but it doesn't do anything. The "home' button does unlock the phone, which I find a little odd lol. Anyway, in the mean time i am using the stock JellyBean lock screen provided with my ROM. It does have a nice music background with pause and skip functions. But I really like the XenoAmp lock screen and hope this can be resolved.
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
OK, I am taking those:

- kill button in notification

- quick edit current tags

- quick delete song

- delete from filebrowser (i.e. those with 1 star)

Note that there's a per-star dj, so if I add delete to filebrowser it will be exactly what you require.

OK, I'll look into it today.

Sure a logcat would be handy. You mean you added a file from nerwork neighbourhood through xenoAmp, or some cifs file?

Surprisingly that's how home button works on many ROMs and lockscreens!
