hi, I'm using Omnia on S10+, I have a 1 TB microSD with over 50,000 songs, it takes almost 15 seconds to open the app but with Pulsar it opens in 2 or 3 seconds, can you fix this please?
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
Please rescan library and send me a bug report, to support@rhmsoft.com. I will know what happens.
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
Could you go into the folder, and find a song, play it. From the player page, click details menu item from toolbar, to see its full path?
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
You can edit toolbar transparency in theme customization, when assign background image.
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
I think the deletion problem happens on SD card. You need to give Omnia SD card permission for it to delete the file. There will be a popup dialog to let you do so when delete files.
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
Once scanning complete, it should not need another scan when you restart the app.
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
Do you mean that you cannot add lyrics to some files? Maybe the file format is not supported. Which file formats are they?
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
There is "add to playing queue" menu items, for album, artist, and when you select multiple songs.
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
Please check if there is .nomedia file in the folder.
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
The pre-built ones are pre defined, it is better you use a different name. Maybe sometime you want to switch back to the predefined ones.
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
Hello,

The android auto screens are currently as designed. Android Auto does not have the same user experience as on Android phone, since it is hard to operate so many steps while you are driving.
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
It supports. Please reboot your device and have a try.
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
Currently I cannot guarantee the behavior when the song is corrupt. There is no reliable way to tell if the song is corrupt.
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
The notification currently is go with your system styles. It will change color based on the artwork image.
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
Does this happen every time or only the first time you open the app?
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
I will consider this in future releases.

For Pulsar, at first there is no these widgets, so I add the option to make the user experience consistent.

For Omnia, it always has these widgets from the first version, so currently there is no option to disable them.
[Android Apps and Games] fomore:
I restarted everything (mobile, omnia, android auto, even the car!!!!) and nothing happens...
[Android Apps and Games] faben70:
I said "an already existing preset", not "pre-built". My scenario is about a User Preset that I had created before.

---------- Post added at 03:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:02 PM ----------

So, is having all the Songs of an Artist listed together instead of grouped by album safer while driving?

Isn't it a matter of what is presented to the MediaBrowserService by the implementation of MediaBrowser? Adding a level of hierarchy should not change the "screens design" (VLC does present the Artist -> Album -> Song hierarchy on the standard Auto Browser interface)
[Android Apps and Games] ashus:
I understand. But the corrupt song should be skipped and then another song should start from the beginning - that always works even on these cut files. I can select any song to play from the playlist and it works fine. Maybe the gapless playback or other feature used when one song transitions into another could be the cause of this? Tracks in that case play for shorter than one second.
[Android Apps and Games] pinkbecca:
it happens every time I exit and open again, but if the its open in the background then its fine, on Pulsar even when I exit and re-open its quick.
[Android Apps and Games] pinkbecca:
no, there's no songs when I enter the folder, it shouldn't be there so I don't know why its created!
[Android Apps and Games] pinkbecca:
as you can see, the first pic is from the folders section in Pulsar, it shows Selena with the correct folders that I put inside, but on Omnia it shows ''Gomez'' inside the Selena folder!, I have 2 artists with the Selena name, one is just Selena and the other is Selena Gomez, Omnia takes Gomez and puts in the Selena folder!, I hope you can fix this, thank you.

---------- Post added at 12:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:47 PM ----------

also please allow each track to display its own embedded artwork?, right now its showing one artwork for all songs that don't have an embedded artwork for a particular artist, I hope you can fix this please.
[Android Apps and Games] benomueller:
Hi, I really like the player. What I miss is the ability to write album cover tags to ogg files. Keep up the good work!
[Android Apps and Games] 684102:
I really love Omina because eq is very hi-fi

Will be nice if we can export & import equalizer configuration to share with other Omina users.
[Android Apps and Games] d3xt3r:
Some help required. I changed an album artist to something, and now trying to change it back, but that simply refuses to happen. Stays the same. Any help? Also, a feature request - Ability to Disable album art coloring on the notification (For achieving a true back notification)
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
Is there a ''Gomez' under Selena folder? Could you help to verify it using any file management app?
[Android Apps and Games] Dm30:
Is there any possibility of support for wma files? I have a lot of old ones that don't convert well to mp3 soundwise.

David
[Android Apps and Games] pinkbecca:
Hi, I just checked and Gomez is not inside Selena folder, there's another folder that's Selena Gomez, and only Selena is a different artist, here's the screen capture from Pulsar where its correct not showing that folder and from Solid explorer to show that the folder Gomez doesn't exist inside Selena, so its only Omnia showing this!
[Android Apps and Games] Mdenney1980!:
Omnia

Why can't I scan my sd card, other than that I love the app, please help email is michialdenn303@gmail.com thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
Could you show me where the "Gomez" folder exists? I mean the full path to this folder, maybe the logic parsing the folder is incorrect.
[Android Apps and Games] OnceAMatrixMan:
Very new to Omnia and still testing. There are some really great features. I have 2 feature requests and as a brand new trailer I'm not sure I have the right to request features, but I will anyway. ;)

Feature request 1: I use playlists exclusively (not folders). One thing that bothers me a little is that playlists can have the same song multiple times. Other players will recognize that the song is in the Playlist already and will not add it.

Feature request 2: in setting up playlists there are songs that I missed or choose to add to a list at a later time. So I would love to be able to view these ophan songs from time to time and add them to a list.

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] Nick Kharchenko:
Hi. First impression is nice. But I really miss Like and Delete options in Android Auto mode. Would be a game changer for me.
[Android Apps and Games] pinkbecca:
hi, there's definitely no folder with just the name Gomez, as I said, there's Selena Gomez, so the problem is Omnia takes the name Gomez and puts it inside the other Selena artist that has nothing to do with Selena Gomez.
[Android Apps and Games] pinkbecca:
here's a screen capture video, please take note that the issue of Omnia taking too long to open is still there, as I said in earlier posts that I have a 1 TB microSD with other 50,000 songs, Pulsar opens smoothly but not Omnia, I hope you can fix that, take a look...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5KYITSDgw04
[Android Apps and Games] pinkbecca:
I'd like to request the following options please:

-when playing songs and the crossfade is on, I'd like the crossfade option to apply even when I skip a song onto the next one please.

-auto-clear option after a certain playback queue has finished, rather than pressing the ''clear queue'' all the time, please.
[Android Apps and Games] LittleMat:
Hi ! I just tested the application and it's awasome ! I think it just needs one more thing, playlist sync... I have a folder with a lot of playlists, and I edit them on my computer, but it does not updates automaticaly when I edit them, and if I change the name it creates a different playlist with the new name but keeps the old one aswell. This functionnality is present on Pulsar, if it is added to Omnia it would be the perfect application ! (The only thing that makes me prefer Pulsar to Omnia is when I have an album with several artists, the album shows in each artists, as in Omnia it only shows in the first artist)
[Android Apps and Games] arvinaquio:
Wow! I am looking for something that will replace the default huawei music player and this one pop-out when I searched from the search bar. I saw the pulsar too which from my reading came from the same Dev. Thanks a lot to this mate. Currently reading comments about known issues and it seems everything was address. might also report bugs and feature request whenever Iv got ample time. Congratulations to this wonderful project.

[Android Apps and Games] hussarman2000:
Hi - loving Omia as a player, but unable to import .wpl playlists - every time I try to through Playlists > Import, I simply receive "Error when importing the following playlist: .... ". The playlists were created in Windows Media Player and copied to my music library on the SD card on my mobile (Galazy S20, Android 11) so pretty much vanilla WPL files. What can I try to fix this? Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] Kenchibi:
Please give me some advice.

The "Sort Order" => "Release date" function does not work properly (= the "Year" tag does not seem to be recognized).

The situation is the same on all my android devices, and this condition was not resolved by changing the encoding type before scanning. I'm having no problems in case of the Pulsar.

What is the cause of this issue?
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
I think the song file paths may not be correct. On your windows system, the file path may be like this:

D:/Music/abc.mp3

But on Android it is different, maybe like this:

/storage/emulated/0/Music/abc.mp3

The same music file may not be found on you mobile using the windows path.
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
Omnia can support release date for each song. If not work, could you send me a testing file to support@rhmsoft.com for me to verify the problem? Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] Kenchibi:
Thank you for your prompt reply.

I will email you a sample file later. The behavior of that file in Omnia and Pulsar is as follows.

First of all, this is the information on the tags of that MP3 file.

The "Year" and "Date" tags contain informations.

View attachment 5180187

In Omnia, the "Year" tag doesn't seem to be recognized. And the sorting function by "Release Date" is inaccurate.

Although not shown in this screenshot, the sort result suggests that the contents of the "Date" tag are recognized.

View attachment 5180179

In the case of Pulsar, informations of both "Year" and "Date" tags are recognized.

And the sort function by "Release date" is working properly.

[Android Apps and Games] hussarman2000:
Hi - okay, so I created M3U playlists of the same music and moved it into the same folder on the phone as the music is in, but it is still giving me the error when I try to import it. I tried doing the same by putting the M3U file into the 'Playlist' folder on the phone, but same error. So I cannot even import the playlist into Omnia, let alone check whether it has the correct path to the songs in its list.

Can you advise what else I can try in order to import the playlist? Thanks - if imported, it should be able to find the music files as the pathway in the M3U for each song is "..\Artist\Album\Song" so the playlist is in and pointed to the same folder as the music.
[Android Apps and Games] lily1467:
Downloaded the app a few days back, it's working fantastic so far! I very well might switch over from the music player I've been using for the 5+ years (rip poor Shuttle, screwed by Android)

If I can make a suggestion, would it be possible make the hit box to tap and drag the scroll bar (when the letter pops up and you can scroll quickly through tons of entries) a bit larger? I'm finding that it doesn't feel very responsive, and I have to tap a few times before I hit just the right spot. It's not a huge issue, but it would make it a little more usable, especially for those of us with very large music libraries.

Thanks for your hard work on this excellent app!
[Android Apps and Games] hussarman2000:
Hi again - checking-in on this query - if you can please let me know what other steps I can attempt to solve this, as per last post above, I'd appreciate it.
[Android Apps and Games] borsuk_20:
Hi. Can you make it possible to download cover art for a missing artist when it shows for example

Sander Van Doorn - Koko

Unknow Artist

When the theoretical song name is displayed first and the unknown artist is displayed second, no image is downloaded.

I would be grateful if you would take my suggestion into consideration.

Thank You :)
[Android Apps and Games] bromden:
Hi @rhmsoft, first of all - an excellent app, congrats. Secondly, a question: is there a way for Omnia to automatically display artist's icons / pictures? I organise my collection as shown below and I always browse it thru artists tab. I wish I saw artist's pictures in the main menu. I know I can edit it manually but I wish it was possible by eg. putting a standard-named *.jpg file in artist's main folder.

Artist----Album 2007

|

-----Album 2011

|

-----Album 2019

Artist 2----Album 1968

|

-----Album 1970
[Android Apps and Games] Astoria:
@rhmsoft, thank you for this wonderful app!

Could you, please, help me to know how to:

1) clear all tags from file? There is no "save" button. I don't use tags in my media library

2) show all files by filename only (for those files, where I don't have cleared tags yet)?

If there is no these options, could you please add them?

Ps. Sorry for my bad English
[Android Apps and Games] Decalicatan Decalicatan:
Hi @rhmsoft,

Thanks for your great app.

I have one suggestion, please add the possibility, when editing the content of a playlist and more , to move several tracks at the same time (right now if I select several tracks of a playlist, I can only move one track at a time).

Maybe add "move up" / "move down" commands in the 3 dots menu that appears when several tracks are selected ?

English is not my native language, sorry if I'm not very clear.

Thanks in advance
[Android Apps and Games] UribeHG:
Hello@rhmsoft.

Excellent App. I currently use it with a Bluetooth EarStudio ES100 MK2 DAC and several HiRes headphones. The audio processing quality in Omnia is pretty close to Usb Audio Player Pro and much better than that of PlayerPro, but the interface and usability is definitely superior in Omnia.

Would it be possible to add a function similar to AUPP's "Bit Perfection" that allows to send the audio WITHOUT CHANGES and without any processing (EQ, Volume, etc.) to the output device, be it headphones or a DAC ?
[Android Apps and Games] tonyjeffferson:
Loved this app. But I want to recommend a feature to get even better: Add an option to not pause the music when you lose focus on the audio, very useful when you want to listen to music and play games at the same time
[Android Apps and Games] thout:
Please add ability to cast / play to UPNP \ DLNA players like AVR, DAC

Something like in Hi-Fi Cast app

You can look for code on github, https://github.com/m3sv/PlainUPnP and https://github.com/trishika/DroidUPnP

When arranging the songs in the order of track numbers in the album, please arrange the songs without track numbers in the order of title.
[Android Apps and Games] willowen100:
Love this and the Pulsar app. The only feature I would like to see in both apps is being able to play songs by their release date either as a separate tab and/or a filtering system that can filter the META data embedded into the audio files.
[Android Apps and Games] update.freak:
I would like to add a "Year" tab in the overview (albums, artists, folders, genres, ...). This would be very helpful to listen to current music from a specific year. I hope that this functionality will be added soon.
[Android Apps and Games] damian101:
I'd like to be able to edit the composer metadata tag.

Being able to list songs by composer would be very nice too, although probably better optionally.

Even more useful to me would be being able to list songs by composer, and, if no composer is named, by artist. Would be perfect for my music collection which contains a lot of classical music. Sometimes composer is in the composer tag, sometimes in the artist tag.

[Android Apps and Games] ShrubRustle:
I have a few volumes that came out in the same year, and have a set order to them (volume 6/7/8). It's a nitpick, but they're out of order when i sort by release date! Would it be possible to add the option for more specific release dates, not just years?
[Android Apps and Games] rhmsoft:
Sorry full midi support will greatly increase the app size, which cannot be done currently. Omnia currently is using device native midi support.

Hi,

I have a question regarding handling of playlists. I tried Pulsar that didn't recognise all of my playlists and then moved over to Omnia which does. But Omnia has the smart playlists always enabled, while in Pulsar I can switch them off. They are completely useless to me and especially in Android Auto mode they take up a lot of space.

Is there a way of disabling them in Omnia?

Thanks!

Hi, could be on the list of goods applications but misc DLNA and samba shares access. Can be only used on local music and in my case all my files are on a Linux server. 2nd point I just need to brows an play files, no need to build a library every time ;-)
[Android Apps and Games] t.Kato:
thank you for this great app. i'm happy to find this.

however, is it possible to set Tags Encoding as 'utf-8 in any case' ?

i have a song with japanese title and french album name (with a letter é , which no japanese encoding supports) .

Omnia (with encoding auto-detection) set some japanese encoding (from its song title), results a corruption of album title.
[Android Apps and Games] Stoofar:
Hi.

Been using the free app for a while and just decided to buy it, great app. I'd like to add a feature request. A button that would end playback after the current song would be great. Maybe "Stop/Pause after this song'. I hate stopping a song half way through but sometimes you need to stop your listening half way through an album.

Cheers for the excellent app.

Please add sorting by album release date and add the year after the album name when the track is playing.

I love Omnia Music Player, but when using it in my car, I can't find an option to keep the screen turned on. I have it plugged into a USB cord to keep it charging.

I'd love the option to have the player keep the screen turned on. It's annoying to have to stop the car to safely turn it back on.
[Android Apps and Games] dankim1987:
Hi, I'm enjoying this app but I'm having an issue where every time I restart my phone, my music library is removed completely and Omnia says "No songs detected." This frustratingly requires a complete library rescan every time, which takes 15-20 minutes for me. My music folders still remain selected in the settings through restarts, but all my songs are wiped clean.

Also, sometimes when transitioning from 1 song to another, the volume becomes abnormally loud for a second and then drops down to it's correct state. I have Replaygain enabled, and it's as if sometimes it doesn't register right away?

Running the latest version of Android 12.

[Android Apps and Games] LSharpe87:
Hello, I'm hoping to fix an issue I'm having where no new music I add to my phone is showing up in Omnia. The files are visible on my phone from an SD card and they do play on the phone's generic player. I haven't changed a thing on my end, my entire library from before is still there, I've rescanned my library, added more folder permissions, restarted my phone, force closed the app, checked for updates, 95% of my music is mp4 from my iTunes, I tried to convert the new music to mp3 and that didn't work either. I've also downloaded legit mp3s after paying for them from bandcamp.com and they didn't work either. Please help, I don't want to find another app to use 🙏🏼

***EDIT*** Nevermind. Took too long. I paid for Poweramp instead ✌🏼
[Android Apps and Games] bertoxo:
Sadly is not like the "add to playing queue" on Foobar2000 desktop, where it changes to that just queued track/beat as soon the now-playing file reach the end no matter if playing on repeat 1 track mode (beat looped).

A shame i still can't find any player on Android that can do that.

This player, as well as on all the rest players i tested, takes "playing queue" as a regular playlist, not as a "real time playing" queue.
[Android Apps and Games] OmniaUser55:
Hi there,

I've been using this music player for +6 months now and really enjoy it.

One annoying issue is that the alphabetical scroll doesn't work 80% of the time when I try to put my finger on the scrolling bar on the right of the screen to activate it.

Are you aware of this and if so trying to fix it?

[Android Apps and Games] DavidRGreen:
Audiobook playback almost works 😃

I've been looking for a media player that handles Music as well as Audiobooks, and found this one.

The bookmark feature partially works; I have noticed that the bookmark is only maintained on an individual track basis. This would work better if the bookmark also saved which track within the playlist as well.

Tapping the play button, always starts at the beginning of the first track, if I tap the correct chapter file, then it picks up from where I left off. But this assumes making a note as to which chapter I was last listening to; not too cumbersome with a minimal number of long tracks, but more troublesome when it is a long title of many tracks.

In respect to music playback, spot on!
[Android Apps and Games] HackySackGuy:
Can you please add a button where when you select multiple songs you can "Add to Playlist"? Right now when I select multiple songs it just says, "Add to queue." If I were to "add to queue," then I have to open the queue, make sure it's just those multiple songs I selected, and then I can add the queue to the playlist. That just becomes more of a hassle.
