The first cut at the tag editor is finally here.  Its still a bit rough but I have plans to address them in Alpha 6.  If this update messes up the colors, just swap your base theme.  I think the update to the androidx libraries messed up restoring your theme, but when it happened to me i just swapped the base theme to light and then back to dark and everything looked fine after that. When loading up the tag editor, it will display the tags of the selected file, or in the case of an album / artist / genre, it will show the information from the first file in the list of files to edit.  In alpha 6, this will slightly change in cases where a certain field is not the same for all the files.  Instead of using the first file, it'll just keep that field blank.  When the save icon is pressed, a progress spinner will pop up.  While this dialog is up, gmmp will check to see which if the tags were changed in the editor, then create a bunch of jobs to do the t...

Its been a few weeks since I've posted anything so I thought I would do a quick update on the current progress.  Up until last week, I had made pretty good progress on the tag editor and file deletion, but i was waiting on google to release a stable version of some of their libraries.  They finally did that so I spent the last week upgrading 3.0 to use androidx / jetpack .  The only issue i am seeing so far is a fairly large left hand margin in the preference screen, but i will worry about fixing that later. Most of the code for the tag editor and file deletion are already written, I just need to put all that code into jobs for the new WorkManager google introduced. Here is the basic layout of the tag editor (still needs tweaking): One other thing to note is i made some backend changes to the tagging code to support writing to the composer and lyrics tags, so I do plan on adding that to the UI sometime soon. Realistically I think Alpha 5 should be ready in a...

Not too much in this update due to a few factors.  I am going on vacation next week so I wanted to get what I had out there, and secondly my plan for the deleting playlist / file / folders capability uses something new from google that is still in alpha and would require me to upgrade pretty much all the android support libraries.  Android studio 3.2 has a built in option to auto convert to use their new jetpack  components, however 3.2 is still a RC and I wasnt able to upgrade from 3.1 in an easy enough fashion to make it worth my time. Deleting things in GMMP involves more than simply removing the file.  The database has to be cleaned up and the queue order / positioning needs to be adjusted to account for any removed files.  Since I did not want the user to have to sit there and wait with a spinner in front of the UI while all this happened, I plan on leveraging a new library from google called the WorkManager .  Delete jobs would be created and set of...

Alpha 3 finally addresses one of the big missing features by adding a new search ui.  It is not 100% complete, but the majority of the functionality is there.  You now can search for artists, albumartists, albums, genres, and songs.  Alpha 4 will contain a few additions like searching folders, files, playlists, and bookmarks.  Similar to the 2.x, a live search (limited results) is executed as you type and clicking the search button will return the full result list.  As of right now the live search is limited to 5 results per category but there will probably be an option for that later on.  From the result list you can jump into any specific result to bring up their detailed ui, or play a song from the song list. Search is also now accessibly via the search button in now playing and the library view (it is no longer in the side navigation like in 2.x).  I plan to also add it to the browser, playlist, and bookmark views once those searches are added...

I ended up just working on bugfixes the last 2 weeks and was able to hammer out some of the more annoying bugs 3.0 Alpha 2b (2018-07-16): Updated libraries Fixed scrobbler Fixed queue from getting reset to the top after reordering Fixed crash after changing base theme Fixed issue with the dark theme having dark text. (Switch to light theme and back to dark to apply fix) Fixed equalizer / effects view displaying wrong information when returning to the view Fixed other various crashes http://www.mediafire.com/file/3tzws6xw0wsogxm/gmmp-3.0_Alpha_2b-amazon.apk/file https://mega.nz/#!7zxVWLTD!BPiJf4ThL_NSP9iTdmYwhWq0V2HcBsvPiqmT6mGlB1U Forum Post:  http://gonemadmusicplayer.proboards.com/thread/941/gonemad-music-player-alpha-feedback?page=6&scrollTo=5301

I was able to finally track down one of the reasons why GMMP would not appear as a default music player in a lot of file managers, so that should no longer be an issue. There wont be any development done this week because of the holidays but i will start back up on Alpha 3 next monday. The crash logs for 2a have been pretty good so i dont see the need to rush out any quick fixes 2.2.10 (07/02/2018): -Return to playing will no longer reset the library view back to the first tab -Bypass keyguard for custom lockscreen will now work on Oreo (only when PIN/pattern/password is disabled) -Fixed playing audio files from file explorer apps on newer version of android -Fixed issue saving changes after modifying and existing playlist

I spent a good amount of time adding a bunch of custom preference views / items in order to add in some of the more advanced customizations.  The scanner edit path UI has been completely redone so it is no longer confusing as to which folders you have selected.  Now the UI will present a list of all the folders you have added.  You can add new folders or remove existing ones. There is a toggle to switch between advanced and simple settings I was also able to add another long requested feature which was to be able to view an individual song's metadata in a popup.  So here is that.  Its accessible in now playing and the song lists. I will continue to add more preferences as they become available in future alphas.
