Unknown artist in music app for all m4as

My music is on my Windows Home Server v1. This location is added to my music library.

The music app in RTM of Windows 8 and Windows RT picks up all the music, but a good 30% of the titles are attributed to the artist unknown and unknown album.

I did some research and here are all the files m4a, rather than mp3s.

Windows Media Player takes these well and displays all metadata.

If I copy locally they appear in music app Windows 8 ok.

Why the music app Windows 8 do not remove the metadata from the network share.

I understand that the Photos app captures not things from one share WHS (at all) because it is not indexed by Windows 7 or superior indexer.

One of the team of music app would confirm if it is the same reason or if it is a bug?

It's to do with indexing. You need a windows 7 or above an indexer for the m4as to be indexed correctly, music should be sitting on a windows share 7, 8 or windows server 2008 or 2012.

    I'm looking at the request of UnifiedSearchDemo and I wonder how to do work like google and appworld "widgets."

    In the demo application, some points of interest are published, but of course the app shows only in search results if the string matches...

    However, the google widget and others like seem to match any string in the search field.

  • Cannot add songs to then put in the iOS 10.0 music app.

    Just what the title says. I also talk about loaded music from my iTunes library, not Apple Music. In previous versions of iOS, the three points presented next to everything on the application of music to give the possibility to add a maximum of next and now, it is only for albums, not songs. I've used this feature much and I'm sure that Apple has done away with her somehow to take advantage of the features of Apple's music (which I don't use), but it's frustrating to have to everything manually reorganize rather than choosing. I was wondering if there is a setting to get that back, or if it is gone for good.

    Hello STYT13,

    Thanks for this info and choosing the communities Support from Apple. I know the importance of being able to add songs to music's next playing on your iPhone is up to you! The good news is that the following steps will help you understand how to put in place the songs in your queue next play in the music app. All while playing a song, drag down on the now playing screen and press the library option in the lower left corner of the music app. In library view, type songs and find the song you want to add. Then tap and hold on the song and a menu will appear with the options, including play. I have personally tested myself, so I hope this helps and here is more on options while playing songs in-app music.

  • With regard to setting background image for all blackberry screens

    Hello friends,

    I'm new to blackberry... Now I do same app for all blackberry devices...  I put a screen background image which has a size 360 * 480 pixels... But when I run this application in different simulators (i.e.) such as the 9000 and 9550 simulators it hold properly 9550 but doesn't fit in 9000...  Can u send me coding to avoid this problem.

    Thank you

    Lachkar

    You must manipulate programmatically.

    In my view, use different images according to the dimensions of the scren.

    Check the size of the screen of the device, and then set your BG image according to this.

  • See all the songs of the artist to IOS 10 music app?

    Is there a way to display all the songs by an artist under iOS 10?  In the early music app I could find or choose an artist and all songs belong rather than album covers. I want to scroll down any, not one album at a time.

    I'm with you on this one. This is also the case for gender, for example. Now if I go in my kind of rock library, I will get all my albums of rock. We should be able to choose if we want to see the list of songs within this genre. Just like in iTunes.

  • No artist and music information of the Album in the App after update 6 Android on M4Aqua

    Hello community.

    I updated my Xperia M4Aqua a few days earlier of 5 Android to Android 6.

    The update worked fine. But since then, I can't find the information of the artist or the album in-app music. Instead, it shows just an empty space.

    Strangely, the title and the genre of music is displayed correctly.

    During playback of a track, the app run correct title, but also shows "unknown artist" and "unknown album".

    I deleted the cache and data local to the application, but nothing has changed. Then I downloaded the VLC Player on play store. Fortunately he read the files correctly, so that the information is still in the files. Just the music app is not showing them.

    Can anyone help? I really like to use the music app Sony again, because I love her and I am used and the VLC player crashes from time to time.

    Thank you, and in many ways,

    Paul

    Hi uliwooly, I just uploaded the folder music on the PC and on the phone and all of a sudden, all the information of the song are back. Strange error, but worked for me. Just the playlists are empty now :-(

    But the problem is solved for me :-)
    Thank you

  • Unplug the headphones of Walkman app silenced all functions of the phone except for incoming calls

    I found a bug that caused the alarm become silent. I am able to reproduce consistently and ahd a firend with a different Xperia V confirm.

    I use using a Sony build 4.1 version (. 490) with ADWLauncher (but my friend was also able to reproduce this with regular Sony Launcher, also on the 4.1 build)

    to reproduce:

    (1) check base case: all applications closed, adjust the volume to maximum using rocking of the volume on the side of the phone. to release the keys, you should hear a tone giving you the current volume

    It also means that the sound works

    (2) plug in headphones

    (3) open app Walkman and listen to a song

    (4) once the track has begun and you can hear in the headphones, unplug the earphones

    track must stop (correct behavior)

    5) press "Home" to return to the home screen

    (6) repeat step (1)... sound is now DISABLED, autour and shows volume knob slides it is not cut, but when I release the button it does not play the sound

    critical, it also cuts the alarm

    (so if you want that the game alarm for 2 minutes in the future before the departure the sequence above, when it fires it is silent after steps 1 through 6 have been made)

    some things that eliminate the effect once it arrives in this State buggy: If you receive a phone call, then he makes it sound and after the call, his resume (no matter what you did with the call - ignore, answer etc, all that is needed is for the phone to ring)

    also sometimes re - insert and remove the earphones also restores sound

    phone is fully updated from the Google store set to have the latest versinos of applications

    I tested this same sequence using other music apps (of rocket, Google Reader Play Music) and the phone has NOT lost his after step (4) and everythnig functioned normally.

    This bug seems to be isolated to the sony Walkman android app.

    I quite like the walkman for sony hopy app can look at this and fix it with an update of the application itself - as all other music apps I tested are causing not easy

    I do not know if this was presented in a recent version of Walkman or the 4.1 update... Maybe someone could test on a pre-version 4.1 phone to see if it still happens

    the recent firmware 9.1.A.1.140 seems to fix this problem. was not able to reproduce once I have updated.

    Thanks sony!

  • Simulator of fails silently load App for unknown reason

    Hi, I am a new Blackberry development.

    I spent some time writing some of my own MVC stuff and recently set up what should be the first alpha version of an application to use it. My big problem is that the Simulator is not load my application and I can't seem to find any information explaining why.

    I tried to run my application directly through the JDE plug-in in eclipse (run as and debug as with the Simulator) and I've tried it in several simulators. I put breakpoints in the main method to trap any successful attempt to even start the application and no breaking point are affected.

    I also tried to load the .cod file set up by eclipse in several simulators does not. I checked in the Simulator for all logs directory that may have hidden exception notice but so far I can't find anything in any newspaper that has anything other than details of startup modules, loads of Simulator (and other startup tasks.)

    When I try to load the app (in one of the above ways) all that happens is that an hourglass appears on the main screen to show his attempt to load the application, and then disappears without any other indication that something had happened.

    Anyone know where I should be looking to find the problem here? I'd appreciate any help that anyone can give, thanks to a ton. -Chris

    Expand the main screen using the menu key ("berry") ("Insert" of the keyboard for the simulators), scroll to the "Downloads" folder by using the arrows and click on it (NumPad 5 with Num Lock off, left click on the trackball/touchpad, left-click on the icon for the simulators of the touchscreen) and find your application here.
