(if you want to ask something, pokereference ;) )
I ask in the subject not to discuss the player, this is a direct violation of forum rules!
For disputes, questions, bugs and other things, there is PowerAMP discussion topic

____Here, only F.A.Q !!!____

All discussions, disputes and requests will be deleted without warning !!! Particularly persistent waiting for readers' subscription, perhaps for life! I ask conscious members of the forum to help keep a clean factor with the help of the "complaint" button on off-topic messages, the moderators promised their active help.

I request to make messagespattern. If necessary, you can upload videos, links to YouTube, pictures and stuff.
I ask you to try in one message to cover one question, then it will be easier to collect in the header.
But if this is not possible: D then you can have several questions / answers.
In the future, when there are enough messages, I will sort them by subject and bring up links to messages in the header!
The link to this topic is in the headerPowerAMP discussion topics

***** F.A.Q. *****

Why did the moderator / curator / administrator delete my question in the FAQ?

1. Interface and control

1. What kind of menu crashes when you tap on the cover and how to remove it? And why some elements do not disappear, even if there is no this menu?
   
   
   
2. Strains every time to press "more" in each menu?
   
   
   
3. I want the queue to always play in order, even if there is a shuffle in the playlist. How to do it?
   
   
   
4. Why when I click on the widget either the main player window or the current playlist is launched?
   
   
   
5. How to make the player search and download covers not only with a WiFi connection?

9. I use the equalizer, but I shift the sliders just a little bit to correct the sound. It is not convenient for me to do this for such small distances. How can you improve the accuracy of the equalizer to shift the sliders more, but the sound changed more smoothly by the same amount? Is it possible to reduce the maximum / minimum value of the bands?
   
   
   
10. Is it possible to make the player display the name of the song / audiobook not from the tags, but from the file name?
    
    
    
11. Where to get new themes for the player?
    
    
    
12. I want to know what awaits me ahead! : D How to make the player show the next track?
    
    
    
13. I want the player to sort the music by albums / artists / titles / etc, but he doesn't do that! Why? I gave money for it!
    
    
    
14. How to disable the color background of the covers?
    
    
    
15. How to make the playback of the next folder automatically start after the last song in the folder has been played? And then in 2.0 it writes "The end of the list of tracks".
    
    
    
16. Strains stalling of music in a bunch, called a list. I want a normal folder structure as it is.
    
    
    
17. After upgrading to Android 5+ in the notification bar (curtain), the text color of the widget merges with the background. How to fix?

2. How to assign an equalizer preset to a track / folder / artist, etc.

5. How to make the player automatically start / stop playing when connecting / disconnecting wired headphones or BT headset?

Sound settings - User FAQ on Poweramp (Post avonder # 48238715)

Reason for editing: Sound settings

[clever_man]

Q: PowerAMP 2.0 stutters when playing on Android 4 (Ice Cream Sandwich, ICS).
A: Put "Very Large" in Settings (Settings) =>Sound (Audio Engine) =>Advanced Settings (Advanced Tweaks) =>Audio Buffer Size.

[Black_BG]

Q: I do not have Google account, I do not use the market, and in general there is no Internet on the phone. How do I get the full version of the player?
A: No. To get the full version of the player you need internet, google account, market, and of course money: D
A: Starting from May 2013, a regular email account is supported, to which you can link an unblocker purchased on the site (Google Play Market is not supported!). Without the Internet on the phone does not get activation - it is necessary to verify the license (once). You can install the unlocker accordingly, wait for the license check (in the settings ->O Poweramp must be checked that the license is verified). License verification is cached and therefore, if you do not reflash \ clear the cache, the Internet will not be required.

Q: I’m used to double track and triple click tracks. How do I do the same in Poweramp?
A: Open the "Settings / Headset" menu and check the item "Double / triple tap".

[Black_BG]

Q: Does the player support third-party skins?
A: Yes. The player has the ability to see downloadable skins through separate packages, support for third-party skins, skins for widgets.
If you are unable to find on the Internet ready new skins, then you can make them yourself.
Detailed information on how to do it and what is needed for this can be found on the player’s website.http://powerampapp.com/or by contacting the author - MaxMP

[Black_BG]

Q: I do not immediately appear the player lock screen, but with a delay, the standard lock screen first appears. Why it happens? I do not use third-party lock screens.
A: There is a problem on stock lock screens, that a standard lock screen first appears, and only then a player lock screen.
This happens only 1 time after the start of playback and occurs due to an insufficiently fast device (or switching the device off / on too quickly) and a higher priority of the standard lock screen.
I advise you not to immediately turn on the screen after leaving the phone in the background, and also wait a few seconds if the stock lock screen still appears. From the player’s side, nothing can be done about it.

[Black_BG]

Q: How to make the player start instantly?
A: For this you need in the menu->Settings->Miscellanea->Additional settings put the checkbox "Do not unload service."
Of course, the service can be unloaded by force by the system, but this will happen only if there is a shortage of memory.
In this case, the player does not eat battery, if not playing.

Q: I want the queue to always play in order, even if there is a shuffle in the playlist. How to do it?
A: For this you need in the menu->Settings->additional settings->Turn to put the checkbox "Ignore mixing"

[Black_BG]

Q: My sound stutters during playback. How to overcome?
A: For this in the menu->Settings->sound->additional settings need to increase the size of the audio buffer and increase the priority of playback

There is a bug on samsung that when playing through the bluetooth headset the sound stutters. It is also treated, but if you have a root, then you can still raise the frequency of the processor in the background.

Q: I bought the program on the site, but the Android Market still offers me to buy the program. Why is that?
A: Buying a program on the site is in no way connected with buying a program in the Android Market.
In the first case, you get an APK package to unlock the program (moreCustom F.A.Q. by PowerAMP (Post # 11265651). In the second case, the fact of purchase is assigned to your Google-account, and you can activate the program as many times as you need (?).

Black_BGclarifies that in the market there are restrictions on too frequent downloading and checking the license. A purchase on the site is also assigned to a Google account, but the developer does not report to Google how much and to whom he sold.

Q: I want to send information about listening to music onLast.FM. Can the player scramble the tracks?
A: The program does not know how to scrobble itself, but it can use popular scrobblers for this, which can be installed directly from the settings (Settings / Scrobbling).
The program can use the following scrobblers:
Last.fm
Simple Last.fm Scrobbler
Scrobbler droid

[Black_BG]

Q: Why does not Replay Gain work for me, although all the settings are worth it?
A: Check if the equalizer is turned on. If not, turn it on. If you do not want to correct anything, then select the preset "flat".

[Black_BG]

Q: Why when I click on the widget, then the main player window, then the current playlist?
A: This is a player chip - the widget is divided into 2 zones - a tap on the cover leads to the main screen of the player, and a tap on the title leads to the current playlist.

[Radjah]

Q: Why the program does not work on the new modified test firmware?
A: The work of the burner with a small error is guaranteed only on the stock firmware. But this does not mean that mod users can pass by. With high probability, it will start on the modified firmware. It all depends on the degree of alteration by its author. Claims for unstable work in this case are not accepted. The author is physically unable to check the performance of the program on all firmware.
Commented by the author.

Q: How to disable automatic and initial scanning of folders / libraries?
A: menu->Settings->sound->additional settings->folder / library scanner

[Black_BG]

Q: And where in 2.0.x the system scanner is disabled?
A: In version 1.x and initially in 2.0 there was an option "Disable system scan for selected folders" in version 1.x the player used the system library.
Starting from version 2.0, the player has its own library that scans only selected folders. In this connection, there is no need to deal with the system library and this function has been removed starting from 2.0.x.

Q: I have a bug with duplicate folders.
A: This is not a bug. In Samsung, the external card is represented by two independent ways -/ mnt / sdcard / sd and / mnt / external_sd. It is necessary in Settings =>Music folders uncheck one of these folders. Also, a similar situation is on Android 4.2 - you just need to also uncheck one of these folders. This behavior can be observed on android 4.1+ due to several ways of mounting the internal memory and card. To do this, also in the folder selection settings you need to remove unnecessary.

Q: How to make the player search and download covers not only with a WiFi connection?
A: In order to save traffic and money, the player searches for and downloads covers from the Internet only in case of an active WiFi connection. If unlimited mobile Internet is connected, you can uncheck the "Download via Wi-Fi only" checkbox on the "Settings / Cover options" settings page.
To activate the cover download, the item "Download disc covers" must be checked.

Q: In the settings there are ticks to hide the repeat, shuffle and rating buttons, but for some reason it does not hide these buttons.
A: After that, you need to tap on the cover in the player, then everything will disappear.
