How to find and add the SDCard to the scanner.

By

Settings -> Scanner -> Edit Scan Paths

1. Press the top tight icon, a folder with a "+" inside.

2. By default the internal "emulated" root folder opens to show what Android allows you to see.

3. Press the left arrow <-- at the top of the list beside where the list shows "storage"

4. This should take you back one level and show the path to the SD card, usually a pair of 4 digit hex codes with a dash in the middle (i.e. 485E-1EE9)

5. Press that path name and continue to drill down into that folder to find your main Music folder, then hit "Select" at the bottom of the screen to add it to the scanner (repeat if you have more than one main music folder)


In general, a single "Music" or similarly named folder should have all of your music files. You can have additional subfolders that add layers for Artists, Year, Albums, etc. followed by the track info.

Good Example: {SD card address}/Music/Beatles/Abbey Road/01 Come Together.m4a is acceptable

Bad Example: {SD card address}/01 Come Together.m4a is NOT acceptable

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...
