GoneMAD Music Player 3.0.1 - 3.0.4

By

I've been insanely busy since 3.0's release last friday dealing with a few really bad bugs with the art searching and scanner that somehow slipped by the 2 years of public testing, the onslaught of 1 star reviews of users that were angry that I reworked/rewrote the app, and also helping the actual users who reached out to me with questions/bugs.  That is why there have been no new update posts until now.

Just a reminder that 2.2.23 can be downloaded in the download section along with 3.0.4 here: https://gonemadmusicplayer.blogspot.com/p/downloads.html if 3.0 is not to your liking.  It was never my intention to force everyone to use 3.x.

Also there are tons of help pages set up for 3.0 that you can access in app via the help menu or here: https://gonemadmusicplayer.blogspot.com/p/help_28.html

I'd also like to point out that there were some 2.x capabilities that did happen to slip by that I honestly just forgot to add into 3.0 like renaming tabs.  Honestly just completely forgot about that feature.  That being said, nearly everything you could do in 2.x you can do in 3.0.  Settings have moved to be more accessible so you dont have to dig deep to tweak the UI (Toolbar Menu -> Customize).

A few new features were added in the 4 updates since 3.0 were released and I'll try to make another post highlighting them.  For now here are their changelogs

3.0.1 (2021/01/30):

Fixes:

  • -Scanner will default to only scanning 'Music' folder on sdcards
  • -Fixed importing scan paths from 2.x
  • -Fixed initial scan to use scan paths setting instead of defaults
  • -Scanner should now resume where it left off when restarted by the operating system
  • -Increased resolution of notification artwork
  • -Disabled swipe to remove when the queue is added as a library tab
  • -Fixed scanner bug not grouping album correctly (will have to delete db and rescan)
  • -Album art search improvements for images downloaded using 2.x

  • -Albums with no album tag will now default to using the folder name (delete db and rescan required)
  • -Fixed some issues with split screen
  • -Fixed issue with the card version of the handle view mode
  • -Fixed unnecessarily searching for the artist's artwork twice on a scan
  • -Fixed crash in the metadata creator removing lines
  • -Restore default scan paths if they were all removed in a previous app update

3.4.17 and 3.5 Beta 1 Released

By
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...

By
Google really messed with alarms and timers for android 14, so 3.4.14 should fix the sleep timer.  You will notice an alarm will show up in your alarms menu when the sleep timer is turned on.  This is the only way to actually get the sleep timer to reliably stop playback on time when your screen is off / phone locked. 3.4.14 (2024-05-17): Sleep timer should now be more reliable on android 14+ 3.4.13 (2024-04-29) Fixed metadata view incorrect sizing in now playing layout 1 3.4.12 (2024-04-23) Updated translations Fixed issues with left and right metadata alignment when no album art Multi artist/genre/composers should now be separated by a comma and space throughout GMMP 3.4.11 (2024-04-16) Added ability to choose whether to crop album art to 1:1 aspect ratio in now playing layout 2 (customize -> album art -> crop to fit) Fixed now playing tab 1:1 aspect ratio album art getting cropped Album art preview pop up should no longer crop art 3.4.10 (2024-03-31) Fixed auto bookma...
