I just tried "similar DJ" and while it didn't find anything for just played Shpongle (and I am sure it gave some results before), it did find a lot for Bonobo (like Massive Attack,... Shpongle...) so I'd blame temporary problems with last.fm for that.

You're a dedicated man. I am too lazy to uninstall it every time! Tell me if I've already have from you any of the tag-failing tracks!
[Android Apps and Games] AGiLiT:
Got sound effects back after reinstall.

Still not picking up any tags other than album artist. Artists with multiple albums have all tracks listed in one unnamed album. WPS scrolls file name, not track title.

Logcat and db here: http://db.tt/6Jvzhgbq

Yes; any tracks you have from me previously will fail.

Since you're Shpongled, here are a couple of screenshots showing what I mean.
[Android Apps and Games] AGiLiT:
Went back to .53; similar DJ worked OK. Wondering if it could be due to tracks not being tagged?
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
Absolutely. I have to compare results against tags, right?

OK! Proper poo tunes tags back.

Discover DJ working. I've noticed in the last few versions it is pulling complete albums rather than just single tracks into the playlist.

Question - what are the main screen preference settings for artist, title, album, and label supposed to do? I don't see any behavior changes selecting them.

Another feature request - is it possible to get some consistency among actions in the music library (and probably elsewhere)? E.g., double-tapping an album cover adds all songs to playlist and plays immediately. Holding brings up context menu to add album to playlist. in the track listing, double tapping a track adds the whole album to the playlist and plays it immediately - would be nice if this would just add single track to play list and play immediately. I know you can do this by holding track to bring up context menu and selecting play, but it means you have to think about where you are and take different actions to essentially generate the same behavior (play immediately or add to playlist.)

Don't seem to be able to get track ratings working.

Suggestion for queries: Selection downwards should stop at Unrated. Don't think you'd need to select rated <'n' stars. Same for listened to; stop at Never Played.
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
OK, I admit - it seems some android internal process has to take place before it changes. Maybe getting rid of xenoamp from memory completely, don't know. But the language will change eventually on subsequent run. I haven't discovered it yet what triggers the change.

Not implemented yet. They will allow you to choose which pieces should stay lit, which should fade.

Aaaah, yes. Good idea, indeed!

OK, I'll look into it. Just adding this batch to my todo.
[Android Apps and Games] xcal321:
Sure, I'd like to give it a go.
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
In xenoamp work directory create a file secrets.xml

<SambaEntries>

<SambaEntry Url="smb://192.168.1.102/" >

<Cred

User="xxx"

Pass="xxx"

Domain="xxx"/>

</SambaEntry>

</SambaEntries>

Of course it will be encrypted later. Url will be matched against path. Add as many as require. Don't remember though if current xenoamp smb path goes to network neighbourhood root... So if it doesn't work yet, you'll have a working file for future... ;)

Should that be /data/data/pl.qus.xenoamp or /mnt/sddata/xenoamp?

It does (slide to right on header twice), it shows my workgroup and my NAS, not sure why it's not showing my windows box yet (could be my firewall settings). I can browse the public accessible directories on my NAS (for others I get access denied; logcat)
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:

Maybe the access denied locations require other credentials?

[Android Apps and Games] xcal321:
Hmm, It doesn't seem to pick up my settings. I'll add an xml header and check the character encoding of the file to match it. I'll get back to you on that.

The access denied I expected, since it looks like my settings are not used.

I'm not sure how complete the SMB/CIFS discovery code is so this could be "normal" as it is now, but the missing windows box is not caused by its firewall settings. I used SharesFinder to scan my LAN and it was able to see all SMB servers, all other SMB tools I have used are able to connect and transfer files.

[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
Done, see first post.

I was wondering... all of you who had problems with widgets. Are they still bad?
[Android Apps and Games] xcal321:
Using .58 clean install. Still no shares visible. Logcat shows you have "192.168.1.102/share" hardcoded (causes SmbException). I see no attempts to my configured shares being made. I can also see that .58 fails on browsing (UnknownHostException: ..__MSBROWSE__.<01>).

I'm currently connected to an isolated corporate VLAN, with a windows domain, and only 1 smb server visible (192.168.100.*). I'll give it a try with on my own LAN (workgroup) when I get home.
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
That's what I expected. I forgot (again!) to change this hardcoded path, sorry, doing it now!
[Android Apps and Games] AGiLiT:
That works; thanks.

4x1 controls work. No cover or track info shown. See 'problem loading widget' a lot.

4x2 shows art and track info, but doesn't display them first time widget starts. Have to change track to get info to appear. Occasionally FC's.

Hi, I am unable to set ratings any more. I think that I was around 0.45 version the last time I rated a song. Right now I am on the 0.57 version.

I set the ratings preference to 'easy' (earlier it was set to 'a bit harder'). But still tapping on the song title does not set any rating.

A question about "Untagged" I see about song title. The ID3 tags of that song contain the title, artist, album name. But still I see "Untagged". Why would be that? Which ID3 tag field do I need to populate?

Other than that, I am having no functional issues with the latest version on Android 2.3.4 :)

Thanks for all your work!
[Android Apps and Games] xcal321:
Album Artist
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
If rows grouped by album artist. Have you tried grouping them by artist instead?

Rating fixed in next release, but what bothers me, guys... yo do realise, that tags and rating are not commited to your tags? So if you uninstall/flash new ROM or whatever, it will be lost. I may enable writing to tags, but I am too afraid to break your tracks, you know...
[Android Apps and Games] jazzboyrules:
Oh yeah, thanks for reminding that. You are mentioned earlier.

Can the ratings be stored the way iTunes stored in the ID3 tags?

Or another option would be to maintain a database where a rating would be associated to an audio file name. I am not sure what would happen in the case 2 audio files have the exact same file name. The file name could be more specific by including the parent folder name and file name both. The user could get an option to export the ratings xml file to save in backup. Then when a new ROM is flashed or if Xenoamp is installed from scratch, the user gets an option to import the xml file. Here another complexity will arise that only ratings of files that Xenoamp has already detected be imported.

That was me talking to myself. Hopefully something is implementable.

Update:

I changed the sorting to artist-wise in "Music" and now am seeing the artist name. Thanks!

---------- Post added at 03:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:27 PM ----------

One another question:

Is there a quick way to navigate to the current playing song in Files to edit its tag?

If I understand correctly, we have to go to "Music" or "Files" to edit tag.
[Android Apps and Games] AGiLiT:
Appreciate you not messin' wit' mah tags! :D

Maybe just need a 'Backup/Restore Database' option?
[Android Apps and Games] cybervibin:
Hey what's the use of the strings.zip? U need to flash it?
[Android Apps and Games] AGiLiT:
It contains files with all of text displayed throughout the app in different languages. It's used by those who are helping keep the releases current or translating into new languages. Contributors welcome...
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
Well - for backup/restore you have Titanium Backup, it does exactly that. Jaudiotagger library that xeno uses is used also in commercial tagging products, so I am just overcautious here, it shouldn't cause any problems (except on poo tunes mp4, I suppose). So today I'll probably add an option to push database changes back to tags. From db preferences.

Woohoo! 0.58 is an awesome update! The lockscreen is working almost as I my wishlist above. Also the ability to rate songs is back :)

Just 2 minor things about the lockscreen:

- Ability to rate. This will be helpful when I am driving, and I want to rate a song as awesome or obnoxious :)

- The blue circle with controls on lockscreen has a lot of aliasing; the circle has jaggy edges, not smooth.

Thanks once again!

SGA Tester Here....

I am using the Miui Music app for a long time now and just discovered this...

App details look gr8,

So Downloaded on my Galaxy Ace running stock ROM 2.3.6 and it installs fine...

Started the App and it scans for files...

Till 1221 folders.....

And then it crashes...:crying:

Prolly the "Out of memory" bug.....

Also it begins scanning even if I start a music file from the file explorer and doesn't play the file....

So, I'll wait for the next release and I can test the app for Samsung Galaxy Ace....:D

Gr8 Work and Best O luck Mate....:good: :good:
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
Ha! You didn't have to wait long. New release is here.

PLEASE UNINSTALL COMPLETELY BEFORE REINSTALLING!

Release 0.1 has the following fixed:

- Android 2.2.x Should be working, but since I don't have a 2.2.x machine, I can't check it.

- Completely new media scanning engine, shouldn't cause out of memory, should scan all your mounted media.

- Showing lyrics should now work every time.

- Title scrolling too fast on low DPI devices

- Clock overlapping battery on low DPI

- Pinch to zoom crash

- Sorting tracks by title and trackno in filebrowser view, sheet view and playlist widget. If you need any other kind of sort - tell me. Do remember, that playlist names and directory names have a context menu (long press) and react to click (toggle selection), so you can easily select all tracks in sheet tile or whole directory in filebrowser mode!

- Corrected date of addition to db, date of last play bug, the flow view is now fully functional

- Cover images from jpegs in folders. Priority is now: 1) mp3 embedded if bigger than 300x300, 2) any *.jp(e)g file in track's dir or parent dir, if bigger than 300x300, 3) internet search

- Lots of small bugs - THANKS TO ALL THE TESTERS!

Unfixed

- font size on low DPI

- Rare problem with Jelly Bean gapless when changing tracks

- Rare deadlock problem when starting internet streams

Suggested features so far

- Itunes synchronization

- User selects default cover icon (almost there)

DON'T FORGET TO READ THIRD POST - it explains how to sort playlists!

[Android Apps and Games] meethere:
i installed, but it keeps on scanning 1000s of dirs and nothing happens
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
Yeah. Forgot to turn antialiasing on. Glad you like it. If you saw prototype xenoAmp you'd just laugh. :D Yesterday I ditched my previous lockscreen, because this one came into my mind. Probably much more things to improve. Someone wanted active progress bar/circle. With play/pasue/prev/next/rating/progress it would be hardly a lockscreen, but... customer is always right.

P.S. In case of phone call you can just press back to get to accept/reject screen. I will fix that later.
[Android Apps and Games] xcal321:
So I have been playing around with Jelly Bean, Nova Launcher Prime and XenoAmp's widgets on my "multimedia" desktop:

That's when I got the idea that it would be nice to have a widget showing xeno's music library album art similar to how Mizuu's widgets show movies and tv shows.
[Android Apps and Games] AGiLiT:
As I've started to spend more and more time with XenoAmp, I was running into a problem where it would just stop after a track, or FC, or other weird behavior. It took some time, but I think I've worked it out to XenoAmp not playing nicely with Bluetooth.

I have a bluetooth speaker in my office at work and bluetooth audio in my car, so that's where I do a lot of my listening. If it is connected to those devices, it creates problems. As soon as I tune bluetooth off, I'm fine.

If a logcat would help, let me know.
[Android Apps and Games] jazzboyrules:
I too had a FC some time back when I woke up the phone and unlocked it. Somehow the default pattern security came up first and involuntarily I unlocked it. Then for a fraction of second Xenoamp lockscreen came up and then it force closed. It seems very random and looks like it's difficult to repeat. If it happens again, I will make sure to send you the logcat.
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
Doable, but would take some design to make it usable if you have hundreds of albums on your device!

Sure, it always helps. So you say it's enough to play with XenoAmp with bluetooth turned on, or bluetooth streamed music?

Well, there will be some. I can't even test it on a real device, as on my 4.1 phone it behaves completely differently I guess. So please send me feedback about anything connected with this lockscreen.
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
Bugfix/market release

RELEASE 0.59

- FC fixed on some more devices

- read rating from tags during initial scan (preparation for commiting db to tags)
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
Something for the weekend:

RELEASE 0.60

- xeno lockscreen goes away on incoming call

- xeno lockscreen has active rating and progress

- xenoAmp won't touch your system audio stream vol at all, if volume is too low raise it i.e. from home screen. This is to test if volume problems on call will stil occur.

- write xeno database to tags (experimental!)

Enjoy!
[Android Apps and Games] jazzboyrules:
Thanks! Loving Xenoamp more with each update!

Question about writing xeno database to tags: If I change a rating, should I expect the file modified date to change in a file explorer? I did not see that date change, so am curious.

Also, I observed, that the album art is stretched proportionally to fill up the screen in the app's main home screen. That does some cropping but that's fine.

But on the lockscreen, in order to fill up the screen, the album art is stretched out of proportion without cropping.

Not sure if this is a bug or intended, but could have been caused by the system audio volume edit in last version.

Now I am unable to change volume from lock screen using the volume rockers. I believe I was able to do that yesterday.
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
Since your rating change is just a change to XenoDatabase, the file won't change in any way. But if you dare to use the new preferences option "Commit tags to files", that will change them and store all your changes from Xeno to file tags.

You but if it isn't fine you can change the behaviour and see whole cover, without cropping. There's a preference for that! I will fix lockscreen cover later, it requires some more thought, as it is handled differently.

Proably a bug. I disabled all keypresses on lockscreen today, I am enabling volume keys in next release.
[Android Apps and Games] jazzboyrules:
Thanks!

I don't mind the cropping, I like it.

Thanks!

Report on committing tags to files:

Looks like it did not work for me. The tagging kept on going on; after crossing 100%, it kept on going on. I finally killed the process when it was around 300%.

Here's the logcat: https://www.dropbox.com/s/f85wjhg7xuprfn8/xenoamp2012-10-05-11-35-05.txt

Looks like it's unable to write back to the files; it's stuck trying to write to the same file again and again.
[Android Apps and Games] AGiLiT:
Of course now I can't recreate the bluetooth issues... It's getting harder and harder to break things with each release. Not to say I've given up... :silly:

Another feature request: a way to fast-forward through a playing track. Maybe a touch-and-hold function somewhere in the WPS?
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
Heee, heeee, heee... I forgot to cursor.moveToNext. It would write this track forever! Fixed (here :D)

Yeah but how would that be different from progress circle? How would you like this fast forward to wrok? Skip second play half second like ffding a CD?
[Android Apps and Games] AGiLiT:
If there's a way to change track progress in the WPS, I haven't figured it out. I can do circle to adjust volume, swipe to move to next track, touch to pause or rate, depending on where touched, long touch to bring up controls. What am I missing?

What I'm looking for would allow adjustment of track now playing position. Doesn't have to be fast forward (or back) - could be drag to new point in track timeline.
[Android Apps and Games] ssuukk:
eeeeerm... What about touching progress circle? Doesn't this work?! Like seen on youtube movie? I was sure I've put it in the tutorial...

P.S. I can push a fix for commiting db to tags, if anyone needs it now.
