Sorry, I have not expressed myself well.

I mean replace the play icon with a thumbnail of the album to which each item in the playlist belongs.

Done!

But the second bug I've mentioned (when about half a second the left timer shows 01:00 instead of 02:00 or 00:00 instead of 01:00) I can reproduce with any track.

BTW if it's important my device is Sony Xperia Z2 with Android 6.0.1.

Hello,

Thanks for the quick reply...

One example of the described situation:

Is a MP3 from Tina Turner. Song is "Proud Mary", from the "The platinum collection" album and I don't have one other song from this artist and/or album in my library.

Info about the song displayed by Ubuntu file explorer:

Info about the song displayed by EasyTAG, the software that I've used to create the MP3 tag info:

Your app isn't displaying the info that is contained at the MP3 file:

Hi there, love pulsar btw. My new default music player! Just noticed (I think) a bug. You can select to play in random order from the lock screen (by highlighting the random icon) but this doesn't show up as selected in the main program. This led to a situation where I couldn't work out why my albums wouldn't play on track order as everywhere I looked (other than the lock screen view) the random icon was showing as deselected. I can be reached at: not.lrg@gmail.com if you require further info or screenshots etc.

Once again many thanks for this beautiful piece of software.

Suggestion

What about an option of display for Playlists (grid with album/albums covers)? [similar to Google Play Music Player]
[Android Apps and Games] :
Please, add a tab for recently added sounds
[Android Apps and Games] KNGPN Q w Q:
In the playlist section, there already is a "Newly added" list (the 4th list starting from top).

Album release sorting

Hey great app... I have been a pro user for a long time now and its still awesome.

When sorting albums by their release year is there anyway to show the most recent first? Or can this be added in?

I love listening to my most recent albums on the go but find it a mish to have to scroll to bottom when biking etc.

Thanks so much for your ongoing hard work to keep this app the best music player app!!

2 Small Feature Requests

Just started using Pulsar a week or two ago, and really like it a lot so far. I have two minor feature requests:

1) On the Artist tab, I have the view set to "List". When I click on an artist, it then shows me all albums by that artist, but in "Grid" format. I cannot seem to change the album display to "List". (Note, this is the album display after clicking an artist - the album display at the top level "Album" tab is in "List" format.) Is it possible to get this album display in "List" mode?

2) When I use the app with my car stereo via Bluetooth, and I shut off the car, Pulsar pauses, as expected. But it remains in the notification bar until I swipe it closed. Is there any way to make it so that when Pulsar is paused, it does not show up in the notification bar anymore? (Interestingly, if I'm not using Bluetooth, it behaves the way I want - doesn't show in notification bar when paused. But when using Bluetooth, it goes to notification bar.)

If it makes any difference at all, I am running Android 8.0 Oreo on a Sony XZ1 phone.

Thanks!

Networks interfering with audio playback

Hello!

Recently I have noticed an issue with my audio playback and have tracked it down to pulsar. I love this music player for its usability and interface, but recently I have noticed when I am in my car listening to local music Music Pauses for about 3 seconds and then continues where it stopped from.At first, I thought my phone was cold or something but yesterday I set my phone in airplane mode to see what would happen, and the music was played uninterfered. I can trigger this pausing and playing by turning on and off my wifi and data, so I believe this issue must be caused from joining and leaving networks or somehow network connection interferes with music. I have tested this with google play music to and this does not happen (but I really like this app which is why I don't switch).

Please Help. I just want to listen to music in peace.

I am running Android 7.1.1 on a OnePlus 5T

Thanks

Is it possible to add a disc number separator for the track listing shown in each album view? When I scroll the list it's hard to know where one disc ended and the other began. Likewise, disc number does not show up in the tag editor either. Currently I rely on the folder view to make these distinctions.

Is the above a free version limitation?

Love the player overall, many thanks for your continued work on it! 5/5.

Album name tag error

I have been using Pulsar for a few weeks now and I'm generally happy with it. I just noticed a problem with album tags for the album Ænima. For tracks 3-15, it recognizes the Æ properly, but tracks 1 and 2 are incorrect, and Æ is displayed as Ć, causing those tracks to be treated like they're on a different album. Poweramp music player does not exhibit this problem.

I have tried editing the tags for those two tracks, but the tag editor within the app correctly displays the album title as Ænima, but not when I'm viewing all albums. Even copying the album tag from the other tracks and playing it to tracks 1 and 2 does not fix the issue.
[Android Apps and Games] etxo:
The app is fine, but it has some flaws or lack of knowledge on my part.

1. Generate playlists and after a while disappear songs from the list keeping it.

2. Once you have removed or excluded folders, the songs or files of those excluded folders do not appear in the song list, but in random reproduction they are reproduced, which you should not, since I have excluded them.

If someone tells me how to solve both problems or if it is something in the app that needs improvement.

Any way to have a real alphabetic sort?

In Spanish "The Beatles" is alphabetically sorted by the "T" not by the "B".

If I like to have "The Beatles" sorted by the "B" I can set "Beatles, The" at the artist mp3 tag instead of set "The Beatles".

Thanks in advance

Nice app, but i have a question.

On my S7 edge the app works great. All the album art is showing up etc. Now i sidekoaded it to my Nvidia Shield TV because this is the only player that works with a remote. Music and all that works fine, but not all my album art shows up. The strange thing is, when i go to edit it, the album art is showing in the edit settings. But in the app itself it's not.

I Know the app isn't made for ATV, but hopefully someone can help me, because there's no decent music app for ATV.

Google Now/"OK Google" issues

I've been using Pulsar for a while, and recently late last year got Pulsar+, but recently have been having issues with Google Now/OK Google integration.

I can't play any specific artist/song/album. If I say: "Okay Google, play <insert an artist/song/album>" it will open in Spotify. Checking the assistant settings shows me that I can't set Pulsar+ as the default music provider.

Other commands, specifically playing/pausing music also don't work.
[Android Apps and Games] IIGutsII:
Great app, thanks !

Like Iceorfire95 said, fixing the double-click issue with headsets would be perfect .

[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
This will be considered in future releases. Thanks.

I have no Pebble so I have not tested yet.

This player support Bluetooth devices, I have a Sony M505 MP3 player, pulsar can support it well using Bluetooth protocol.

So it worth a try. Please tell me the feedback.

[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
Currently the popup menu has many items which make it long enough. I can only put these features in player page since these features are not as commonly used as other functions in popup menu.
[Android Apps and Games] Gazorbeam:
Hi rhmsoft, thank you for the great work you did on this player.

I am a ballroom dance instructor and I'm looking for a player I can use for my group trainings. My demand for a music player might be a bit different from what other people need but maybe it is not too difficult and could be done quite easily.

All information about kind of dance and bpm of all my dance music is stored in the comment field of the ID3 tag. Would it be possible to search for the comment as well?

Most of the dance music CDs are samplers. So there are lots of different artists on one Album. If the contend of an album is listed, would it be possible to show the artist and the title as well as the comment of a piece of music?

Regarding artwork. Does the artwork have to be embedded in the music file or is it sufficient to add one jpg to the folder contend?

Will you add the ability to pitch or change the speed of a playback?

Thank you for your effort.

Regards Gazorbeam

After the latest Android update to Oreo on Huawei Mate 9 Pro I can no longer use the equalizer together with my Bose QC20 headphones. If I turn off the equalizer it works and without headphones I can use the equalizer. But together I just get a high pitched noise. Other apps work fine with my headphones. Pulsar+ 1.6.2. Does anyone else have this issue? Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] davespagnol:
I just got a Hifi Stereo amp with Bluetooth input, so I turned a disused Cubot X12 into a Bluetooth Jukebox. I tried Pulsar as the player, and I have one problem. "Various Artists" albums are listed with one of the Artists on on the album. On one-such album, I amended all the tags, so that the AlbumArtist was shown as Various Artists and the individual track artists were those who recorded the tracks. Despite this, the Album is showing the Artist as Steppenwolf, the band who recorded the first track on it. Am I doing something wrong?
[Android Apps and Games] ansamech:
Pulsar+ is amazing it's by far the best music player available! Thanks a ton for building an awesome app.

2 feature requests: it would be amazing if we could pic our own colours for the themes. My other request would be for lyrics support. Auto lyric download and syncing to the music would make pulsar the most desirable app out there!

Once again, thanks a ton for the hard work!
[Android Apps and Games] LostEchoes:
Beautiful music player !

It would be really great if you could consider adding two things:

1) Airplay support (if DoubleTwist can implement it, then I guess other devs can do it, too, right ?)

2) Option to move the app to the SD card.

Keep up the good work

Voice commands

Hi! I read that the app supports voice commands. Is it possible to use these voice commands using a Google home device while the app is installed on my android phone which is casting to chromecast audio? Thanks!

I second this, adding 'ok Google' support would be awesome.

Also I am unable to set pulsar as my default music player, any suggestion?
[Android Apps and Games] herlgl:
Could we please get an option to set a folder as a default folder?

I only use the folder mode, but it always starts at /storage/emulated/0. So every time I have to click on ".." -> ".." -> "SD card" -> "music" to get back to my actual music folder.

It would be nice to set a specific folder as default.

Thank you
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
"doesn't show up as selected in the main program", do you mean that the now playing page?

If you would like to play in album order sequence, please do following:

1. Turn off "keep shuffle mode" in settings page.

2. Click any song from album instead of press "shuffle" floating action button.
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
This is a nice to have feature, I will consider it in future releases.
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
I will think about it. Every sort can be ascend and descend.
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
1. Reasonable. I will consider it in future releases.

2. Current solution is, when app go to background, when music is playing, notification is kept; when music is stopped, notification is removed.
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
This is hard to reproduce. My guess is that there is another app(thing) occupied the audio channel for 3 seconds when data is connected, such as navigation app, etc. Then when it does not occupy anymore, the music resumes.
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
Currently I did not pay enough attention to track number. I will consider this in future releases. Too much work to do...
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
Sorry, this is an encoding problem, and not only controlled by my apps, also by android media scanner. Maybe I can not fix it.
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
1. Please upgrade to version 1.6.2 or newer and have a try. This version includes fix for playlist disappear problem.

2. I did not understand this problem. Where did the songs appear after you exclude them?
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
You can get it directly from Google Play. Search "Pulsar", and install the 1st.
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
I did not know this. This is a feature request that to ignore "the" and "a" prefix while sorting. I did not know that this is not for all languages.

But you may also have English song/album names, would you like to ignore "the" and "a" for English titles?
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
Don't work, do you mean that Spotify still popup? Are you using latest version 1.6.2 or above?

Could you temporality disable Spotify to have a test if Pulsar will response to your command?
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
This app is based on song title, not file name. For instance if "test.mp3" has correct tag, it will show its song title in id3 tag instead of "test".
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
This seems not to be an app problem, since without headphone it works well. There is no headphone specific code in my app.

Other apps work fine, do you mean that similar music players with system built-in equalizer? Some apps have their own equalizer then it may not have the same problem as Pulsar.
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
Lyrics has copy right issue. Pulsar supports built-in lyrics or lrc files, but downloading lyrics won't be supported. You can use some 3rd party apps to show lyrics such as Musixmatch, they can co-work with Pulsar.
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
1) Airplay is not a common requirement, but if other apps can support it, it should be feasible from technical level.

2) Pulsar contains widgets, it is not suggested to move to SD card.
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
You can choose standard view instead of hierarchy view for folders.
[Android Apps and Games] LostEchoes:
I really hope you will make an effort to implement it @ the Pro version :)

p.s. To be clear, I mean Airplay streaming to Airplay compatible speakers / devices.

Who agrees with me that there is a problem with the search results in the app when you search for any songs?

[Android Apps and Games] drizzt09:
You may want to provide example of your issue.

Steps to reproduce

Results you get

Results you expect
[Android Apps and Games] Fahd Owdli:
For example

Some songs when searching for the title of the song it appear while searching for an artist name do not appear .. Why?

I have attached screenshots of beggin form madcon

When I search for "beggin" it appears, but when I search for "madcon" it does not appear
[Android Apps and Games] Fahd Owdli:
This search result from another app

As you see there is nothing wrong
[Android Apps and Games] :
Nope.

I will to sort albums, artists (and songs) using the exact name that appears in the MP3 tags.

Now, you are sorting bypassing some words, like "the", "a", ...

In Spanish (and I assume that this occurs in some languages) all words are representative to a alphabetical sort.

Due to I have some english groups and some spanish groups in my library, and due to I'm spanish, I like to have a spanish sort option if possible.

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] etxo:
1. I have the 1.6.3 and it is true that the playlist is maintained but the songs in that list after a while are deleted. I have added them again, to see what happens.

2. When I start playing the songs, it plays songs from excluded folders, the echo of excluding is so that it does not take files from that excluded folder. I always reproduce randomly.

Hi! Great player! I paid also for the premium version I was so impressed.

However, not critical, but would be cool if it appeared in the services list for google home, and in the list of services one can choose for google assistant to use when asked to play music.

What do you think?

At least, for me, it doesn't appear in those lists

(See screenshots)

Hiya...love the app (bought pro within a few minutes).

Feature Request(s):

1. Pause music after each track has played. I use my phone to play music in the group exercise classes I do. Having the option to music pause after each track can sometimes be very handy.

2. Screen on while playing music and when on playback screen. Option to set the player to keep screen alive/on so I don't have to keep waking the phone up after each track has paused (yeah, would be used with above but two separate options)

I'll admit I was using PlayerPro up until a few days ago, it's got some weird bugs that I can't get the creators to acknowledge for me so this I am using your excellent player instead.. I just miss those features, thank you for the ace app!

I love this app! Been using it ever since I upgraded to a smart phone.

One feature that would be great (if it's possible) is some way for the app to remember where you were in a track for specific playlists. I use a custom playlist for podcasts, so it can be a hassle to remember my spot on a track if I switched to another playlist or was listening to music.

I apologize if this has been asked before, or was a feature added to the Pro version.
[Android Apps and Games] KNGPN Q w Q:
You can also use both the free and the pro version: one for your normal music listening and one for listening to podcasts.
