Problem with music on omega Rom. - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
Wondering if I could get some help please. I am having problems with my music on omega's Rom. I use the stock music app to play music across to my cars headunit but sometimes the app is unable to find all my music.
I have tried places the mp3s into the /media/music folder and also into the /music folder. It will find music that is in the downloads folder and will find system sounds but not the large collection I have placed on the internal memory.
Now this is not always the case as I have had the music app find all the music in the past but I have no idea what I am changing to lose them this time. Any ideas?
Also is there a way of stopping the stock app from finding all the system sounds or only reading from one directory so as to find only my music collection?
Cheers in advance.

[Q] Missing Songs from Music Library

Hi everbody.
I have Sensation with Android 2.3.5 right now. And there is a problem I couldn't solve and find any solution about it.
Some of my musics don't show up on library no matter which music player I use. These songs don't have any particular property that can cause it. Half of the songs of same album or different bitrates or same bitrates or same tags or different tags. It's just mixed at all.
I can see and play these songs using file explorers.
Different roms don't change anything either. Sense or CM.
Deleting and copying music files again or tagging again didn't solve.
Formatting SD card didn't solve.
Deleting cache of MediaProvider.apk didn't solve.
Changing file manes or folder didn't solve.
I use cover art downloader to refresh mediastore everytime but it doesn't stick.
I'm tired of it.
I'm open to the ideas...
What is the format of your songs that can't play normally?

MP3. To clear things up, they play normally but don't show up on libraries of music players. After I trig scanning they show up. After some hours they dissapears from libraries again.

I don't have this problem. I have up to 22mb mp3, 512kbps bitrate, mp3 or flac format.. btw, I use Google music.
If you try to search the music using search option in music app, will it work?

Mines are V0 Mp3 and their size are up to 15 MB. Average is 8 MB. Totally 1567 songs.
Search can't find them either because they're not included in library.
Btw, there are people who have that problem on the net. Even on Google forums(I don't know exact name) after long conversations still no solution as far as I read.
So no one has any clue?

Tried an hour ago, it added the missing songs to the library. Just came back to check if it's still ok but no luck. They dissapeared again.
unfortunatly I am kinda having same problem but I think mine is a bit more irritating. ever since I updated to gingerbread on my thunderbolt all and I mean all my music was misscatigorized, band names changed ,song names changed. it appears that the only ones that didnt change were one that had all info even album art. even newly downloaded songs are misscatagorized. im considering deleting the stock player all together . who the hell has the time to go threw and re name everything or re download .

Power Amp question! Please help!

Does anybody know why when I download a game like Dark Legends and Angry Birds why do all the sound effects are being installed in my Power Amp App? . I just want music there. Now I have it says 1234 files. And its mostly sounds not music. How do I fix this? It only happens with Power Amp. PS I have tried moving it from the USB storage to SD card and phone. Still no help. Thanks

You need to change the folders you have poweramp scan and get the music from. Gimmie a sec and ill try and get you step by step.

Menu button. Settings. Folders/Library. Music Folders. Then check the folders you want poweramp to extract files from. Then click select folders. Poweramp will then scan just those folders you've selected. Once that's done, enjoy JUST your music and no other sounds!
Hope this helps.

music player that only scans selected folder

is there any music player that doesn't automatically scan all the sd card?
i listen to audiobooks on my phone too and currently using winamp but it lists all the audiobook files as well as the my music tracks which is a bit annoying. tried stock player which has the same behaviour.

Power Amp. You can select the folder for your mp3 and it will scan only them.

dunno.....didn't try free version
lol I'm guessing not,i don't think I'm that blind
gonna see how i go with TTpod for a while,i couldn't find folder select option but gives more options as how to navigate and being able to browse by filename is a feature i like too.
Sent from my GT-I5800 using XDA
There are other options too.
MIXZING for example it has both the functions that you need.scan a particular folder as well as play by folder.
U can give it a try but nothing beats power amp.using it from a long time.if you can afford it just go for it.
Edit: mixzing is free

unfortunately i can't afford poweramp but I'll give mixzing a try, thanks

well mixzing seemed perfect, love the interface but it doesn't play flac!!! such a pity because it seems a great player apart from that.

just what you need Clean Music Player
just tried clean music player, looked good but failed in playing flac files, thanks for the suggestion though.

i emailed the clean music player dev about it not being able to play flac files received a reply within a day informing me that he is working on it. huge respect to that, looks like it won't be long til clean music player will be my player of choice.

Music works fine over here...for the most part. The only issues in terms of music after flashing ROMs was that my songs doubled and if I played the doubled version I'd get an error message. I also noticed my music library contains notification sounds and audio from my videos I've taken, a little odd but im still able to listen to music with out any real issues. What are your issues?

I had the same problems, so I would just go back and flash cm9
I founded out when you flash a new ROM and music seems to not play or find. You want to get a file explorer and go on your storage and look for a file that says "No music" and delete it. I did that and now my music play's perfectly
Hope that helped!

Had this issue on my older LG P500.
The problem was a corrupted mp3 file. Solved when I deleted the file.
Check if that solves your issue.

Put five mp3 on your internal card and test.
Fails then factory reset.
