GoneMAD Music Player 3.0 Alpha 13

Development is moving along at a nice rate now and im hoping to have the alphas finished by the winter.  Alpha 13 has a bunch of nice additions.


Year View Improvements

The year view now offers the ability to group multiple years together in the year list.  For now you can group by either 5 or 10 years.  





Pin Smart Playlist to Library

I had hinted at this ability before, but now its finally available.  Smart playlists can now be pinned to the library and essentially become a custom view.  The podcast view added in alpha 12 is essentially the same thing, but instead of referencing a smart playlist on disk, its referencing a hard coded playlist.  The upcoming audiobook view will also leverage the same capabilities.  Pinned tabs can be removed through customize -> view order from the 3 dot menu on the toolbar.



Lyrics UI

GMMP now has a UI to view embedded lyrics.



'Show Lyrics' option should now be added to the context menu of song list items and the now playing menu (this will show lyrics for the currently playing track.

Alpha 14 will mostly focus on lyric improvements like:

  • lrc lyric file support
  • better synchronized lyric support (highlight playing line)
  • support for musixmatch
  • support for quicklyrics

New:
Added ability to group years in year view by 5 or 10

3.4.0

Plans for 3.4 changed a bit when google announced they will be hiding apps on newer versions of android if they dont target the newer sdks.  GMMP always tries to target one of the more recent versions of android, but the unlocker has no need for that since its essentially just a license key.  As of May 1st the unlocker will be hidden on newer versions of android to those who have not already purchased.  Because of this, the focus of 3.4 was to get in app purchases working to allow users to buy the full version after May 1st.  There is a new 'Purchase' section in the settings where the unlocker can now be purchased. One other change in 3.4 is the support for the Android 13+ media controls.  They changed around how to customize them, so that is reflected in a new 'Media Controls' section of the settings. The language can also be changed for just GMMP via the system settings The changelog itself is fairly small but I did a large update of all the libraries / dependencies t
