music player - myTouch 3G, Magic General

Hi again,
Another question on Magic.
Is there a way to get the music player to only search one particular folder on my SD card? IE, I have sounds on card (in a separate folder) that I don't want to show in music player. Can this be done.
Cheers,
Steve

make a folder on the sd card name My Music, that should work
Not possible Unless someone finds a way to edit it in the manila files. It just searches the storage card for all media. So my suggestion to you would be to have all the other audio on your internal storage or use another player. I don't even use the TF3D player. I used to think it was all awesome, but screw it, S2P and CorePlayer ftw! WMP is good, no doubt. If you want a really good player, buy Conduits Pocket Player

Noob Needing Help with Media Player/HTC Player

I would like to use Media Player to manage my music. However, I also have an iPod that I'd like to continue using. Currently iTunes contains 15,000+ songs. I would like to put about 1000 songs on my HD2. Can someone tell me:
1. Can Media Player manage mp3 and m4a files?
2. Can I keep all of my music in the current iTunes directories?
3. Can I use Media Player without creating duplicate files?
4. Will all Media Player playlists be independent of iTunes and not cause problems?
5. Can ratings be added to mp3 and m4a files in Media Plyer without corrupting the files for iTunes?
I saw a instruction list somewhere on this forum that had a step by step setup process for Media Player to the HD2., but can't find it. Can someone point me to it.
Thanks in advance.

all you need is itunes agent - have used this for quite a while to sync music to my former N82 and my present HD2.
ita.sourceforge.net
Follow these steps:
1) Create a playlist in itunes with the songs you want to copy over
2) connect your memory card via a USB card reader (or connect the HD2 in data transfer and not active sync). It is important that the memory card is represented as a drive in Explorer
3) Follow the instructions on the itunes agent documentation: ita.sourceforge.net/docs.html
let us know how it went...
p.s - mods: unable to post external URL's. Could you pls verify my account? Thanks in advance!

Works well, nowhere in the instructions did it mention you manually have to set up your device in the preferences, but yeah, once you do that it's smooth sailing.
It's actually pretty amazing you can sync with iTunes, never thought that would be possible.
Have to give the phone a soft reset for Sense's music player to display the newly synced songs unfortunately. It's a real shame they couldn't bring this core part of the phone up to scratch and make it useable. If I wasn't tech savvy I would really, really despise this phone.
Lets see how long it takes Apple to stifle this innovation. Hopefully they wont find it as its a small sourceforge project...
Shhhh! Don't tell anyone!

Thanks for the responses. I have Pocket Tunes, which is OK for moving iTunes music to and from the HD2. However, I'm specifically interested in understanding how Windows Media Player works with HTC's player for organizing music.

HD2 + Music on Storage Card

Hey guys, I was wondering if there is anyway of setting only a particular folder to play music from on the storage card. The Sense music player is picking up every audio format e.g. ringtones and playing them???
all i did was create a folder on my mem card called music and my ringtones are on phone mem and music tab didnt find them
Thanks. I thought this was the case, but I have a lot of mp3 ringtones assigned to contacts and moving them all over to the phone memory just wouldn't be viable.
thare are serval discusions on that, around here. actually there is no way from stoping the music tab to play all sondfiles it find on the storage card (or at least only play a single folder). there are serval registry key and stuff but it looks that the music tab is ignoring them and do what it like to do.
mad
you could trim your ring tones or lower the quality of the file depending how many you have and if you can be bothered or just create a playlist and exclude the ringtones that prob the quickest option
Use a file explorer to make all the folders you don't want the Music Player to see, hidden. The phone will still see all of the ringtones etc... but they won't show up in the Media Player. It worked for me.....
sorry for bumping an old thread, I put songs into my SD card in the Music tab, I find WAZE nav sounds ( in mp3), what should I do so the Nav mp3's are not shown in the Music tab?

Media Player/HTC Music Player and iTunes/iPod Use

I currently have all of my music (15,000+ songs) set up for use with Itunes/iPod. I would like to try to use Windows Media Player with the HD2. However, I am concerned about letting Media Player access my files that are currently cataloged in iTunes.
1. Can I set up Media Player so that it accesses the mp3 and m4a files but doesn't copy or move the files from the iTunes folder?
2. If I add the music to the Media Player system, can I rate the music in the Media Player without changing or disrupting the music files themselves?
3. Can Media Player playlists be created without disrupting the iTunes system?
If you currently are using Media Player/HTC Player AND iTunes/iPod successfully, can you tell me if there are any issues that need dealing with? Up until now I've been manually copying music to the HD2. Unfortunately, there seems to be some sort of corruption issue if I delete files that I've added to playlists from within the HD2 Player. I'm assuming that using Media Player to create lists is easier and more secure than creating lists from manually copied files.
Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

The easiest way I recommend which I my self did is Find your Itunes library on your computer copy it to your HD2's storage Card and from there do whatever you like.

From my original post: "Up until now I've been manually copying music to the HD2. Unfortunately, there seems to be some sort of corruption issue if I delete files that I've added to playlists from within the HD2 Player."
As far as I know you should delete songs from the folder that you have your music in it usually on your storage card that should not be any problem,another way is that you use the ActiveSync to sync your music files from your computer to your device,in this way whenever you add or delete a music file on your PC it will be automaticaly synced to your Phone,this sure is the better way.

Need advice on doubletwist and where to store music

I have about 20GB of music in my iTune. Now just realised that my Samsung Galaxy S internal storage is too small for that. Therefore I think it must be stored on external storage card.
I've just downloaded a program called doubletwist. I have a few questions:
1) How do I turn on mass storage mode on SGS so that doubletwist can see it?
2) How do I tell doubletwist that I want the music to go to storage card instead of internal storage?
3) Has anyone of you experience problem when music is on storage card, such as skipping of part of songs?
4) Is it a better idea to scale down my music collection so that it fits into internal memory?
TIA.
Just wondering, can't you just copy the music files into a folder you call, let's say, music on your SD card, and start up the samsung music player? It'll recognize the files and let you play them.
Or is there any special reason for you to use DoubleTwist?

I might be wrong, I want the iTune rating, playlist, and artwork to be synced as well. Will your method work?
