Hi,
I'm looking for a music player which:
1. Has a nice looking clean interface, Google now like. A good example would be Shuttle player.
2. Will not display the same album multiple times. Some music players put most songs on one album and the rest on another due to various reasons. On some music players, this doesn't happen.
3. IF possible - a music player that does not cause mediaserver to go nuts.
Thanks.

Thanks, downloaded it and it looks nice once you apply a light theme. Also doesn't have the annoying duplicate albums.
One thing no one has commented on, is there a music player that eliminates the mediaserver problem?
How about nexmusic+ , apollo, and Now playing. Shuttle is pretty great already, just wish thy would add scroll animations.
Hope this helped.

So far I have tried the following media players but all have some missing features that stop them from being ultimate media player
Samsung Stock Vibrant
+ Awesome sounds
+ Equalizer
+ Cool album art brower
- No widget
- Does not automatically download album art
Media Player Pro
+ Automatically downloads album art/artist pictures
+ Decent looking interface and themes
+ Excellent widget support
- No equalizer
- Does not sounds as good as Samsung Player
Mix Zing Player
+ Good Sound
+ Equalizer
+ Widget Support
- No artist picture support
- No way to pick album art manually (at least I haven't found a way)
So now the question is, is there an Ultimate Media player available for Vibrant ?
Also, all players have one issue that they all show same artwork for "Greatest Hits" album no matter which artist it is. I have manually edited the mp3 tags with correct album art but still have the same issue.
Search for "Album Art Grabber" to get album art and DoubleTwist for music - works great.
no problems even with albums with the same names.

Just tried DoubleTwist. The interface is nice but it does neither support artist images nor has an equalizer.
Try mediapro

That still won't give me a media player widget or artist pictures
well out of all the options you listed seems to be the best
all you listed for samsung is that it wont download album art nothing about artist
I like Lithium It rocks with one handed operation. As well it will grab album art.
Cubed / Rockon is your best bet for media players on any android.
http://www.droid-life.com/2010/03/23/android-quick-app-3-or-cubed-music-player/
It's purdy, and very functional.
My only beef is that it has no Genre View but playlists can handle that.
OH and it has a badass widget.

Its nice but it does not have an eQ either.
I've tried a ton of different music players I've found Mixzing or the stock samsung music player far better than anything else out there. I usually tag all my music before I put it on my phone but in the rare case I use MP3 Tagger Pro.
My go-to media player (if I don't use the stock one) has always been Meridian. No Eq though. Don't think you'll find that in any player except stockers.

Mixzing is the only one I've seen, besides stock, that has an EQ.
I finally settled on Mixzing after trying out Tunewiki and Doubletwist. The problem with the stock player is that it can't give you an artist list if you have a lot of music--that makes it unusable for me.
Tunewiki was okay, but slow and it was just ugly. Doubletwist is just way more limited; good integration with iTunes, but you can't make playlists on the go and the video player sucks.
Have any of you guys ever gotten the genre view to work properly with the default player? My track metadata would always be ignored and the player would classify them as whatever it felt like. It was extremely annoying.
So far Mixzing seems to be the best player (though it still does not support artist pictures)
Hello folks,
I've been searching for a faster music player for my Wildfire android phone. Because the default with the sense skin is ****. It loads and scrolls very slow. But I didn't found anything usefull.
Someone knows a minimalistic/fast music player, just only the basic stuff, no equlaizer, visual things ect.
Thanks,
i used winamp for a period of time... it's free on the market
I'm using Music PlayerPro and very hapy with it.
It looks nice and smooth, has got a nice Widget and Lockscreen
-nevermind-
Music PlayerPro FTW.
i'm using Music PlayerPro too.. n work well
Tiny player
Search for "Tinyplayer" on market its free n just 60 k app it dsnt hv much of Eye catching features but is lightest
I use Miui Music (QVGA)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=929727
just have a look at
ttpod
real player
winamp
double twist player.... and choose the best that suits u.
consider lyrics and subtitles support if u need.
so many other players in the market, if u r free to search.
and im not sure whether the above miui music player works with unrooted phones also.
Player pro is nice, especially with the pure white skin.
I use Rockit
I use tinyplayer.

I see the topic has risen after 2 months, but for the sake of it - try Vanilla Music Player. It's really lightweight, has a cool widget and seems to drain less battery than any other player.
I use Poweramp which is the best player out there!
For me, it's Rockbox
It's not the prettiest by default and it definetely takes some getting used to, but it's by far the most functional player available.
I've been using it on my Cowon D2 and I'm glad they made a port for android
Rockbox supports pretty much ANY format there is (hell, it even plays NES-roms and tracker formats), supports ReplayGain and gapless playback, has a proper shuffle mode and countless options to tweak the sound to your liking (Crossfeed )
There are 2 prebuilt apks for our screen size here. The upper one is portrait. There's no switching between both modes atm

+1 for poweramp. First app I purchased, and I do not have any regrets.
I like PowerAMP, its almost only one with EQ ! I really love the preset Bass setting in EQ combined with Koss portapro headphones

Ill send u a tip in private msg.
For me it's between Winamp and Playerpro, Winamp is free but Playerpro is a little better IMHO. Both are good, if you don't mind spending the Benjamins then get Playerpro, you won't be sorry, otherwise get Winamp... Both are brilliant. Oh and you might wanna root your wildfire and run CM7... It's the way to go... But yeah if you're worried about warranties etc. then I guess you could stay on Eclaire... it's just like you're holding your phone back...
I've tried so many music players but default player always sounds good.Yea it's better than poweramp.So is there any way some of us can modify music player to add following things:
1) Shuffle all option.
2)Maybe rating and smart playlist.
3)Delete option for now playing song.

Thanks man !!! I do have so many music apps in my phone but I do think Stock music app sounds better.Better than even poweramp.So I was just wondering if this could be done.

Player Pro does this.
Agreed +1 on player pro (current player with sense skin)
Also use the folder option as well...so that option won me over entirely
I think there is like one more player that offers a folder option (trust me I went through them ALL) but cant think of it to save my life...might of been miui player??? idk?? dont hold me to it...
I think Mixing had folder option as well. I started using Player Pro a couple years ago and never looked back.
It's good but i prefer poweramp

It has a nice interface, but messing with the EQ too much causes it to hang. And if music is playing, you can't control it in any way, the only solution is to force close the app.
I usually just use Amazon MP3 to play music. The stock Blur player leaves a lot to be desired, and Google Music doesn't (seem to?) differentiate between cloud and local playback. With Amazon MP3 it's real easy. Plus, I buy music from them and I've ripped and uploaded my CDs to their cloud (and to Google's, it's nice to have options, heh). It isn't a great player, but it's reliable. And while I enjoy music, I don't play it on my phone often enough to need a fancy player.
But, thanks for the link, it was fun to try out.
I'm looking for suggestions for a basic music player ie one that plays MP3's and playlists. I don't need any streaming radio stations, I don't need music suggestions, I don't want it to use data, all I want is a basic music player. Native playlist creation would be a nice feature too. For some reason, even though all my music is on my phone (actually external SD), Play Music sometimes tells me something is not available in "downloaded only" mode.
Thanks.

vanilla music is pretty nice. you could also try shuttle if you want something a little less simple.

Both of those look great. Thanks!
Been using Poweramp (paid) for years. IMO the only way to go (until we see what foobar brings to the table).
Shuttle looks good. The free version does not have folder browsing or native playlist creation, but those aren't deal breakers.
