[Android Apps and Games] mikebeatrice:
Working great here...

Could you elaborate a bit?
[Android Apps and Games] etuoyo:
Wonderful app.

I have a question. To save apps they have to have been downloaded in Play Music. So the songs are taking up double space on my phone /sd card. I want to delete the files from where they are saved in the Play Music files since they are just numbers with no names and I can't even play them on another device. Actually I believe they can't even be played if I wipe my Rom.

My question is if I clear the Play Music files and use the files saved with this App in the Play Music app will it show the thumbs ups given to those songs in the app with the original Play Music files?

Hmm actually I have 2 questions but they are quite similar. If I saved an artist radio or song radio with this App and delete the numbered Play music files if I play that radio would it use the files saved with this App (so not using my WiFi or data quota) or would it instead the files saved to my phone with this App?

If answer to either of these is negative them guess might just have to be stuck with keeping 2 files for each song (the Play music original file and the ones saved with this App).
[Android Apps and Games] Ztones:
I encountered a strange behavior with track numbers. I downloaded a LOT of songs at once. 4.5 GB approx. Everything went nicely, they downloaded, I exported the songs and uploaded them back to GPM. What did NOT work nicely is the filenaming / track numbering. The filenames always being with the track number. For example 06. out of this world.mp3. The first two digits represents the track number. So this number was being named random numbers like 287, 145, 87 etc .... So now I have albums with track numbers like 287, which is crazy. I then went ahead and downloaded/exported only one album, and the glitch didn't happen. Track numbers and filenames are correct. Anyone notice this? Does it have to do with the 4.5gb size at once?

Hi

Wondering if this app can be used to save/restore all the offline music and avoid a complete redownload of the pinned songs after a rom flash ?

I'm looking a way to avoid to redownload all the pinned songs after rom flashs....do you guys have any advises ?

I already tried to backup and restore the /data/data/com.google.android.music after the rom flash but when i refresh the library all the content gets deleted and replaced by the downloaded one...which is quite annoying when you have a huge pinned songs library..

Hi,

i'm so sorry i wasn't able to check this thread. But...

Good news everyone! (Oh yeah! You've read it with the right voice!)

I want to share the current beta version. This should fix a lot of trouble and issues from the current version. Please try the beta and report your results if you had trouble with the old app. You can install it parallel to the current "stable" version.

The beta is more stable than the old version but the settings aren't working right now. This means you can not change the export path nor the export structurer.

Thread on my homepage: https://www.david-schulte.de/en/2015/08/play-music-exporter-preview-version/

Download the apk: https://github.com/Arcus92/PlayMusicExporter/blob/master/apk/playmusicexporter-release.apk?raw=true
[Android Apps and Games] mikebeatrice:
If the current stable version has been working 100% perfectly, is there any reason to try the beta? New features, etc? Export path is important to me, so if it's just meant to fix issues for the people that are having them, then I might wait for that to get ironed out.

Welcome back!
[Android Apps and Games] Arcus92:
The Beta should export the tracks a bit faster. You can install the beta too and check if it still working and report me. Like i said: You can install both Versions at the same time. But there aren't any new features yet.

Hi, I am having a problem in not getting any album art or ID3 tags back. The music is from all access (not uploaded). Am I missing anything?
[Android Apps and Games] bubuskin:
Did you save it offline in play music app?

[Android Apps and Games] rhx123:
Got it sorted

Well, after some investigation, I have sorted the problem. It seems since something has happened (either a Google Music or Exporter) update, ID3 tags are exported in a format Windows cannot read. They are there, just unreadable. Anyway, I remembered some software called Tag&Rename, for batch tag processing, and worked out you can quickly fix all the tags so Windows can read them. Here is a tutorial for anyone else who runs into this problem.

Sorry it is a word document, for some silly reason this forums only allows 0.5mb PDF files yet 4mb docxs, so my file is 4x as big as needed.

Show AllAccess tracks

Hey im new to this app, it looks like an awesome app, but i have a question.

If i check the box show all access does google know that i'm downloading their music?

Can you get fined for doing this, and can they prove that i did it?
[Android Apps and Games] mikebeatrice:
If you go to the web site for the app, he explains how it works. The short of it is "no, they don't know". This app doesn't download anything. It simply copies what's stored in the cache that Google play music downloads into an area accessible by the user.

All downloads are handled by the official app.
[Android Apps and Games] travisn000:
On the dev's website he states that its not possible to make this work on android 6.0:

Working like a champ! ?
[Android Apps and Games] mikebeatrice:
I'm confused by what was unclear about my post saying that he added a beta that was working under MM.... How was that not confirming it for you?

It's like the previous beta, though... Not all of the old options are available yet. For example, you can't make a custom export path.

The exported files work great as usual. Full artwork and tags.

Are you taking over development from David? Or is this a brand new competing app and you're hijacking the thread?

Why is the version number 1.0.1 on your Google drive, when the current app is v3.x?

Edit...sorry, I just realized that you're pointing out to David that someone stole his app.

I have not installed the other app for comparison since I don't really trust them. I did notice that the app has no special permission requirements...and I don't understand how that's possible.
[Android Apps and Games] AlexBurnout77:
Hi, David,

Thank you so much for this useful, cool looking app. I was wondering if you could develop the same app, only for Apple Music because it gives you three months of free access and so I could be able to download anything and store it (Apple Music runs on the same principle as Play Music -- it hides its downloads from other apps).

Edit: found a workaround here -- [GUIDE] Apple Music Downloads to microSD

Edit 2: the thing above doesn't work (it just moves the m4p files to the external card). Please work on an app like I requested! :)
[Android Apps and Games] alexJ567:

[Android Apps and Games] Bill720:
computer-based alternative?

Is there a way to make this happen on Windows or in a web browser? I don't mind ripping the music using my phone, but it's a lot more cumbersome than using the computer. Yes, I tried "Song Spout", and it does work, but only for a few tracks before self destructing and asking for more money.
[Android Apps and Games] s629c:
The process is the same as play music exporter. But Apple's m4p DRM can't be unencrypted so a Apple Music exporter is not possible unless someone can decode the M4P files

[Android Apps and Games] Kjc99:
I noticed sometimes the album artwork wouldn't show up either... It was either clearing the app cache or turning on Wifi but opened the beta again and got artwork back.....

*Edit * is there anyway to run my previously downloaded music through the app to embed the artwork? Or can someone recommend a program for Windows?

Galaxy S7 edge
[Android Apps and Games] patrafter:
Would you be able to implement your old interface in the beta? The old one was faster to use and more thorough.

There are also some bugs in the naming for the exported files. for example a song called "01. artist - name - name.mp3" gets put into "artist\name\name.mp3". In the old one it was working perfectly.
[Android Apps and Games] AGraber:
It seems the app doesnt work when data is migrated to SD Card (Adoptable Storage).

EDIT: Reboot fixes things, but I tried to reduce storage and ended up deleting things...

EDIT 2: When a song has a "/" on its title, a directory will be created instead of putting it in the title.

A great album example is "Tales From Topographic Oceans", when every song has a /

For example the song is called "04. Ritual/Nous Sommes Du Soleil", so Play Music exportar will create a directory called "04. Ritual" with a song named " Nous Sommes Du Soleil"

Please fix it, thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] mikebeatrice:
You can't have that character as part of a valid file name.... The alternative would be to request an option to replace illegal characters with another character.

I'm pretty sure development is dead on this. I haven't looked at the web site in awhile, but the last update had been many months ago the last time I checked.

I don't know if it was posted before (seems like no) but the dev (Arcus92) did post the Beta on GitHub and you can get the latest version in the APK folder. It's 6 months old but I think the project was abandoned which is sad.

It does seems to works just fine on my rooted Note 4 running Marshmallow.

How do I install ? I've downloaded the zip from github, do I just flash it with TWRP ?

also if this app doesnt work, where can i find the download folder for google play music so I can use an mp3 as a ring tone?
[Android Apps and Games] Bill720:
Not that it really matters...

That's fine. Like most people, I gave up on Google Music after the inexpensive trial period. For all the hassle of downloading music, it just wasn't worth it.
[Android Apps and Games] NienorGT:
This is GitHub, it target devs and not users so it's weird for us.

Go in the APK folder and click the APK file. It will says it can't show this file so click View RAW to download the APK and install it like any APKs.

Hello Everybody, did anyone already try this app with Nougat on a Nexus 5x? Does it still work?
[Android Apps and Games] patrickDE:
Hey,

not with 5X but with 6P.

On marshmallow the export worked fine (my last export was a few months ago) but on Nougat all exported files are unreadable.

I don't know if it's a Nougat problem or if google changed something to the app itself.

EDIT:

Just flashed a stock marshmallow image on my old Nexus 7 and rooted it.

Play Music exports are fine - there has to be a change in nougat that prevents play music exporter from accessing the files properly.

AmiDuos

This is kinda driving me nuts. I had set this up with AmiDuos before and it worked fine. I had to wipe my computer (thank you MS) and have reinstalled everything, and now I cannot get it to work.

I am running a fully rooted version of Amidos with Android 5.0.1. I can install and download music from Google Play Music fine. I have verified that the downloads are in sdcard/Android/data/com.android.music/files/music.

Here's where things fall apart. If I install the older versions of play music exporter that I had downloaded last year (including what was then called 2.3.4), they install, but crash on starting. If I install the updated version for MM, it starts, but does not see any downloaded music (as though it's looking at the wrong directory).

Any ideas?
[Android Apps and Games] timbohobbs:
Have you tried downloading to internal storage rather than SD ? that worked for me
[Android Apps and Games] furrydad:
It was an interesting idea, but it doesn't seem to work for me.

At first, I looked in Play Music, but could not find a place to direct downloads to (which is weird, because it's supposed to be there, but it wasn't). So, instead, I eliminated the external storage from Settings >> Storage and downloaded some more music. This time they ended up in /data/user/0/com.android.music/files/music. Uninstalled Play Music Exporter and reinstalled it to internal storage as well. Ran it, and still nothing. Sigh.

I'm still weirded out that I installed the same AmiDuos I had the first time before I reinstalled windows, along with the same gapps I initially installed. I then installed the same play music exporter (2.3.4 old). Everything worked a year ago, but this time, the play music exporter continues to crash. I am going to try everything from scratch (uninstall AmiDuos, etc.) one more time but eliminated external storage before I install gapps and see what happens.

The app dosen't check sdcard1 for your music. This was my fault! It checks only /mnt/external_sd, /mnt/extSdCard and /external_sd, but i will add /storage/sdcard1 in the next version.

But there is an undocumented workaround in the currently version. You can create this text file: /storage/sdcard0/PlayMusicExporter.cnf

If this config file exists, you can override the path to your music like this:

PathGoogleMusicMusic=/storage/sdcard1/Android/data/com.google.android.music/files/music

PathGoogleMusicArtworks=/storage/sdcard1/Android/data/com.google.android.music/files/artworks

This should fix the issues until the new version is done.
