GMMP 1.2.6 released + info about the next major release

1.2.6 is now live on google play.  It is mostly bug fixes and a few minor changes.  I am really happy with the stability of 1.2.x now so I will begin work on 1.3.

What is planned for 1.3:
-cue file support
-replaygain support
-dsp limiter
-notification playback controls (3.0+ only)
-widgets packaged as a separate download (for users who moved gmmp to the sdcard)
-1 or 2 more holo based skins
-advanced now playing metadata customization

A beta will be posted before the official release just like I did with 1.1 and 1.2

1.2.6 Changelog:
-Volume buttons will now control media volume when music is paused and GMMP is open (screen must be on)
-Added option to replace total time with time remaining in now playing (Preferences -> Now Playing -> Show Time Remaining)
-Split artist search into artist and albumartist search (Album Artist search category added)
-Album artist and song search now on by default
-Other search related improvements
-Changed default playback priority to Above Average (this might help reduce skipping in some cases)
-Changed 'Obey Audiofocus Requests' to be enabled by default
-The lockscreen player can now be unlocked by pressing the trackball
-Action bar is now hidden for the lockscreen on 3.0+
-Artist, album, and genre views now maintain their state when changing orientation
-Updated translations
-Fixed crash when selecting album art on ICS
-Fixed issue where the lockscreen would stay on top when launching GMMP from the recent app list
-Fixed bug in 3.0+ where the search results are not selectable after returning to the search view
-Fixed crash in the headset broadcast receiver
-Fixed crash in the auto file scanner

3.4.17 and 3.5 Beta 1 Released

I was not planning on putting out any more 3.4.x updates, however google refused to approve the 3.5 beta due to some policy updates that caused the existing 3.4.x version already released to no longer be compliant.  Therefore 3.4.15-3.4.17 are basically the work I've been doing on 3.5 for the last 16 months, but with all the new features disabled.  I would like to put them through more testing before enabling to the public, hence the beta. 3.4.17 (2024-10-25): Fixed crash on android 14+ trying to verify the unlocker 3.4.16 (2024-10-24): Fixed multi select in album details highlighting the wrong item 3.4.15 (2024-10-23): Update target api level to 34 Updated dependencies Manual scans are no longer ran in a foreground service due to google's new policies Last played time added to song info pop up Fixed issue where extra space was added in artists with numbers in name Increased full search limit from 100 to 10000 results Fixed issue with files missing tags showing up in the unkno...

GoneMAD Music Player 4.0 released and is now free!

GoneMAD Music Player 4.0 is now fully rolled out!  After 14 years since initial release as being a paid app, I've decided to try something different and switch to being free with ads.  The market is completely different nowadays compared to the early 2010s.  Ads are everywhere and users typically do not want to pay for apps / games / etc.  But don't worry, those users who previously purchased the unlocker or in app purchase unlock will continue to get an ad free experience.  New users will also have the option to purchase an in app purchase to permanently remove ads.   Note: There is a bug with 4.0 where users with the standalone unlocker may see ads when they first upgrade.  You typically fix this by just force stopping the app and restarting.  Ads should not come back after that.  Alternatively you can contact gonemadsoftware@gmail.com and I can help you out as well.  I have no intention on making users who already paid see ads.
