[Q] Android 4.4 Alarm and Pop up music player problem - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
Anyone able to play media files from explorer with the pop up player ?
I found that my phone not able to play any mp3 with Es File Explorer popup player and/or Google Music Player popup player opened with Es File Explorer (They popup, i can seek forward and back, can pause and play, but no progress when i press play its just stuck there). If opened using apollo and/or mx player, it's open the full player and the mp3 play just fine. And Google play music play all my mp3 just fine.
And also the alarm clock cannot play any custom mp3, when the alarm triggers its doesn't play the mp3. I thinks its the same problem with above.
Thanks for your helps

[Q] Strange mp3 playback problem

I recently noticed a weird playback problem with my fire. If I download mp3 files from the web and then put them in my music folder I cant play them from the stock music player it says "playback problem" however if I open the same mp3 file using a file explorer the kindle plays it with no problem - its not the end of the world but a bit inconvenient when trying to listen to multiple tracks
Is this just me or something that happens with all Kindles?

[Q] Nexus 4 Play Music

Yesterday I received the kitkat update. I installed it with no problems. The problem I have now is the Play Music app. Songs that used to play no longer play, I get Music playback error, Couldn't play the track you requested. This is happening to alot of my songs. If I go to the file manager, music file and select the song to play and choose Google Play Music, the song will play. But wont play on my playlist or if I try to play from within the app? Any ideas????
I've got the same problem. "Music Playback error" from Google Music app, and "Error playing the track" using MixZing Music Player.
Looks like an OS problem, not a problem with the player.
Solution 1. Go to settings > apps > Google Play Music > Clear cache and data.
Solution 2. Uninstall the Music app. If you cant; use es explorer and delete it from the system folder (root permission is required) make sure you are rooted.. Reboot your device and reinstall from the Playstore.
Solution 3. Try deleting all the songs and re-copy them.

trouble playing music on my e7 32 gb

the default music app fails to play any music. it just gives the error "sorry, failed to open file". ive tried using third party players like poweramp, but they play a song or so and then the playback keeps stopping. when i press play again, the song plays for a second or so and then stops again. this keeps going on. please help me with this problem as the music playback is great on this phone and i am missing out.
solved, music working
there seems to be a problem with the default music player. when i forced close the default player, third party music apps work perfectly. default music player does not work at all for some reason

[Q] Music not shown on the default music player

I copied some music on the phone, I can see the folder and every song if I search them in ES File Explorer, and even play them with the built-in music player in ES, but I can't play any music with the default music player, it says that there's no files.
The default file browser also can't see the music, more specifically if I look for it in the "all files" I can find it and even play the music, but in the music section of the file browser it says that there's 0 file, here's a screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/CNCnQD9.png (it's not in English, but I think it's pretty straight-forward which one is the music).
How could I fix this?

Make Shuttle default MP3 app when using Moto Voice

If I ask my phone to play some music, say "OK Moto X play some Marillion" it does a Google search then plays a random MP3 file in my Music folder using Google Play Music.
OK, very smart, but I have and prefer Shuttle music player.
So how do I get Shuttle to be the default MP3 player in this situation?
In a file explorer I have set Shuttle as the default app for MP3 files but when using Moto Voice it still starts up Google Play Music.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I believe google play music is the only player that Google search will use. I use to use poweramp and never had luck with that.

Solved it.
When Google search comes up and starts playing the music, showing the Google Play Music icon top right, there is a hamburger you can select and then choose the music app of choice.
Simple when you know how but not very intuitive. Would have been nice to have been asked the first time.
Spoke too soon. The above isn't a permanent change as far as I can see. Next time I tried asking for music it reverted to Google Play Music again.
