So Im looking for a music player that I can use to listen music from youtube or something. I have youtube app but I cant listen music and do something else, youtube app must be on the screen, while with music player I can hide it to the background and do something else at the same time.
Any recommendations?

I searched for this everywhere but didn't find it. I listen to a lot of electronic music and I usually play the tracks on youtube before purchasing them on beatport or whatever. It sucks thay in the youtube app the song stops if I have to answer an sms or surf web. I think it would be a good idea of a mod or even a custom app that can play youtube videos in the backgroud..is this possible?

theres a sweet app called free music download in the market where you can search for almost any song or artist and get many results. from there you can stream or download the mp3. i use it everyday along with my unlimited skip pandora
Check out Ghosttown from the market. Plays songs from youtube without the video. Idea worked well for me but the buffering killed it for me. May work for you though.
Should be in the Themes and Apps section.

The streaming is getting better, the last couple of updates have really sped things up. It's almost there, I'd say it's probably the best bet.

Why don't you try tubemate ?

When I click on an MP3 file, in Reader, for example, it asks me to launch in either Music or Sound player. Both of those programs stop playing audio when I try to do something else on my phone.
The 'Listen' app for podcasts can continue to play in the background, why won't it let me play the file through there?

I read through this thread but there was no definitive answer.
Hi. When you select an audio file from something like a file explorer, The media apps play that song as more of a preview.
If you want to keep them playing in the background (assuming music) try playing they by finding them in the music player itself. the audio should still play as long as you use the home button to navigate out of that app. (Back button ~ close)
Hope that helps

Thanks for assistance. But this MP3 file isn't stored on my device. It's a podcast hosted elsewhere.

Ahh. Sorry about that, I need to stop skimming when I read. I'm not very familiar with pod casts so unfortunately i can't help you further =[ Not sure why its not working for streamed files. Internet radio programs such as TuneIn radio work fine in the background for me.
Good luck and hopefully someone else can help
Dont know that my title is sufficiently clear, same problem could be mentioned here in Q&A, but i dont know how to search that topic, through which sentence or words.
Anyway, when i am trying to watch a movie in my adroid device (Xperia Sola), sometimes it directly opens it with flash player withing the browser (Btw i am using stock) and sometimes it wants me to open with some apps, like Movies, Quickpic and MX Player. Since i am able to play that video with flash player in my computer, i want that video to be played by flash player, not by some apps.
Actually MX Player is better in watching movies, but sometimes it cant grab the movie, but flash player makes no problem like that.
PS: I unchecked "Play HTTP Links" in MX Player, but there is no such option in stock Movies app and Quickpic.
I would be appreciated for your all possible solutions.
Its may be because sometimes the files to be played is flv so it directly plays in flash player sometimes its different like mp4 etc than browser asks you to choose an app...
And if you want than you can choose flash player as default player than it will play in flash player automatically
we all should be polite enough to press thanks for anyone who helped US.
Then, where is that option?

When ever you try to play a video this type of pop up will appear..
So what you have to do is just tick in the box use by default for this action.. Then select whatever player you want to play default..

Since there is no option to play with Flash Player, i cant shoose this.
Is there any way to listen music in background while doing something else (read a document, surfing on net, etc.) ? More exactly i mean is there any setting(s) for this situation or another player to install from playstore that doesn't interrupts the music while doing another thing ?
The default music player have this problem and is somehow disturbing.
Thx in advance!!
the installed music player DOES NOT stop when you are doing something in the background !!
if you somehow open a song from your "my files" folder and go to a specific song and play it and try to do something else in background it will stop
if you play direclty the installed application - Music player - and open songs from there you won't have such problems.....
all players work the same way...
it doesn't take much to be a genius...

The app keeps barking that it could not find a registered device. How on earth do i register the google music app on my android phone. It is installed and running on my phone. So, i assume it is registered, but bubbleupnp thinks my phone is not a registered device for this app. It was the main reason i paid for this app.
Could anyone offer a tip?

Try to switch to YouTube Music while you can because google music will shut down anytime now.

I don't think so unfortunately, you can read that : https://reddit.com/r/YoutubeMusic/comments/hhg308/bubble_upnp_will_it_support_ytm/
But do it anyway, it has already started, it will save your library so you don't lose all of your song

Is there a way to stream pandora, spotify, etc from my android phone to an external renderer (my hifi bluray/sacd player) with bubbleupnp? I don't want to pay for Qobuz or tidal which bubble permits. I am currently using bubble to push music files from my NAS to this bluray/sacd player (dlna). But, i have not figured out a way to stream music from free services like pandora etc from my phone to this player. I use pandora, google play music, etc to find new music.
Any tip you offer is much appreciated.

Well idk which protocol YT music support but you can cast music to other devices like google homes, Chromecast, but that's it. Hope the way you've found will keep working
