[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] SM-03:
Well, I actually am more concerned about the sound quality & equalizer & other features balancing. My question was intended to that as because I never used any Samsung phone till now with Samsung music player.
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] rjrdmetallica:
Ah, okey. I have a Galaxy S4, and choosing between that two players, I prefer xperia music player app
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] therealjoeblow:
I'm using a Galaxy S8+... the Samsung music player was generally fine, no issues with features or sound quality, however it has the same limitation with playlists that Google Play has, in that they can't contain more than 1000 songs. This is an issue for me because I have a playlist that has survived with me for the past 10 years or so with every phone I've ever had. When I get a new album, I listen to it in its entirety, but it's very rare for me to like all of the songs on it. Typically I really like 1/3 of the songs, kind of like another 1/3, and don't ever want to hear the other 1/3 of the songs ever again.

So as I play the new albums, I put the songs I like into a playlist called "My Faves", and I listen to that on random when I want to listen to music in general.

Problem with the Samsung player is that it won't let me add more than 1000 songs, which I ran into last month. So I went looking for another solution, and found Xperia music, which has none of the Samsung player limitations, and also is able to utilize the onboard Galaxy sound ehnahcements like UHQ upscaler etc.

Sound quality wise and with respect to other functionality I find the 2 players to be pretty equal, but the silly 1000 song playlist limitation is a huge oversight IMO, and for that reason I've relegated the Samsung player to the recycle bin along with Google Play Music.

Cheers

TRJB
[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] SM-03:
thanks for the detailed reply. At this moment, my playlist is yet to reach 1000+ songs in lists so I was not aware of the limitation that you've pointed out. Being a SONY user for last 10+ years I always used & preferred Xperia Music (formerly knows as Walkman) app, & still using it (the modded universal app) in another device after I finally get off from the Xperia devices back since 2016. My only concern to ask this question about to know the difference between these two apps or any other music app with & in compared to Sony music app i.e. what's are the pros n cons & which is/are better than it. Precisely, I am more concern about the sound quality & clarity with equalizer & other sound enhancers features & management.

I have used samsung player on my xperia L once. It was rooted and i patched it with lucky patcher after doing some modifications but i dont know how i did it. It worked though. And it was pretty good for me.

That's why i asked people to port samsung player just the way xperia is ported with modifications in the apk file.

Thx for the hint, sadly it did not work. I tried two of them but they are just working on stock ROM and I am on PAC. I had to restart the device for the automatic rescan. Reminded me on Windows XP times....:eek:

Is there no possibility to force Android to rescan the media files? Maybe by shooting down some system process, like SystemUI if something is stuck after a theme change? SysUI restarts by itself then.

I have installed Sony WALKMAN 8.4.A.1.4 but it's not the same menu, I don't have throw. :(

Do you kow why ? Do you know another app that can do it ? :confused:

You have to enable unknown sources within Android Auto app. To do so, open Android Auto, go to About, if you are not a developer yet, tap the "About Android Auto" header 10 times till you see a toast message saying you're a developer.

Congratulations for this work! The app is amazing and works like a charm in my phone :D

I have one question, is there any way to organize the music in the app using the tag "album artist" instead of "artist", like iTunes does? I have many compilations with various artists, and it becomes chaotic searching between hundreds of artists with only one song.

[Sony Cross-Device Development Themes and Apps] trax7:
Guys, if you are new here, please read the XDA rules :)

There are some things we need to clarify here.

First, this is a distribution thread with the purpose of distributing the Sony Music app so you don't go searching for it. Its purpose is NOT to fix bugs or provide any sort of information other than download links and a changelog.

The app is NOT being developed by the devs here, it's owned and developed by SONY. Any bugs that may arise should be reported to SONY. If you do not own a SONY phone, however, your chances are slim to get any support as you are NOT the intended audience for this app. :)

Second, this thread is meant ONLY for the SONY Music app. Not for the Album or any other remotely familiar app. If you want the others or actually if you have any questions at all - use the search function, chances are someone already has had your issue and solved it! It helps keep the forum clean and in good working order. I should not have to explain this, it's the forum rules.

Go have fun but always be considerate and respectful to others by abiding to the rules :)

I use this over the stock Samsung player because for some dumb reason Samsung has hard coded their music player to have a 1000 song limitation in playlists, and Sony didn't. Therefore Sony wins since that is an important feature for me.
