GoneMAD Music Player

As devices have been slowly getting the upgrade to ICS, I have noticed that not all of those upgrades have a completely stable version of opensl.  So if you experience crashing after playing each song or trying to change tracks, or if playback seems to be going in slow motion, you should disable opensl.  1.3.7 added an option to do so (uncheck preferences -> audio -> enable opensl).  This will revert the player to use the decoders from 1.3.5 So far i've seen issues on these devices: -htc incredible running an alpha jb rom (not being stable is expected for this) -galaxy s2 with the 4.0.3 update (playback is slowed down for mono 48khz mp3s) -Cube u9gt2 running 4.0.x (crashes deep in the opensl libraries after every mp3/aac track) Hopefully this is not an ongoing trend as more devices get updated to ICS

Microsoft is deprecating their image search on august 1st so the latest update of gmmp is now using a replacement service.  The results seem to be more accurate. 1.3.7 (07/31/12): -Replaced album art download service (old one stops working as of August 1st) -Improved album art searches for poorly tagged albums -Improved image loading speed when scrolling the album list -Increased the timeout for loading large audio files -Added option to use older mp3/aac decoders instead of opensl (uncheck Prefs -> Audio -> Enable OpenSL) -Fixed crash related to cue files -Fixed restore crash on HTC Sensation 4G (4.0.3)

My friend just started a new site and asked me to write something up on GMMP Read here: http://thepult.com/gonemad-music-player/

I was meaning to get this update our earlier in the week but ended up having to work out some stability issues.  During the testing period i was able to make a small change that should give a big visual improvement to older devices.  The background gradient is now MUCH smoother and shouldn't band anymore. The big change in this update is OpenSL is now being used for mp3/aac decoding for ICS+.  Jelly bean removed the aac decoder that GMMP was using so now opensl is taking over that role. Also all the skins were updated with new translations and some other minor adjustments. Note: Amazon users will get this update in a week or 2 1.3.6 (07/22/12): New: -Added delete to artist, album, song, and genre views -Deleted songs, albums, artists, etc are now removed from the database after deleting -MP3 and AAC are now decoded with OpenSL ES on 4.0+ (HE-AAC v1/v2 now supported) -Added czech translation Improvements / Changes: -Upgraded taglib to 1.8 beta -Gesture recognition i

GMMP finally got approval and is now able to be purchased on the Amazon app store. Trial Unlocker

Since September 2011, GMMP has been downloaded 100,312 times.  Pretty crazy! Development wise, the next update should be out in the next few days.  It includes: -Gesture recognition improvements for larger screen sizes -Playing a folder with playlist shuffle enabled will now start at a random position instead of always the first track -Added delete to artist, album, song, and genre views -Fixed playback of multichannel (3-6) flac files -Fixed AAC playback in 4.1 -MP3 and AAC are now decoded with OpenSL ES on 4.0+ (HE-AAC v1/v2 now supported)

If you experience bad skipping on your SGS3, go to settings -> sound -> auto haptic -> off.  It is some odd feature that analyses the audio output and vibrates the phone with the sound.  It causes GMMP to skip like crazy, so disable it if you want smooth playback

In the last 2 days, GMMP has sold roughly the same amount as a typical month, so I am extending the deal through sunday.  Get it cheap while you can!

I am reducing the unlocker price to 99 cents for to celebrate independence day.  Sale is good through 7/6 and only available through google play.  Note: the lower price might take a little bit to show up. 1.3.5 (07/04/12): -Fixed freeze when a flac or mpc file fails to play -Fixed issue where a bad audio file will attempt to play over and over again -Fixed crash when running out of memory during drag and drop in the playlist -m3u8 playlist support added -Jelly Bean(4.1) compatibility fix -More improvements finding files from playlists made on other devices -Added spanish translation -Caught stackoverflow error when looking for next folder to play -Fixed crash when android eq is not supported on device -Improved handling of cue files that dont conform to the spec -Widgets now work with cue files
