New music player - Neutron MP (flac, ogg, etc.)
- Found this yesterday:
Buy Neutron Music Player - Download Neutron Music Player - Buy Apps from BlackBerry App World
At $5 it's a bit pricey... wondering if anyone has had a chance to try it out (especially anyone who can compare with FLAC Player).

The EQ makes it a win. I don't know what the reviewer was smoking when he was talking about the UI though. It's a bit different, but it's HARDLY clunky or difficult to use.
If you have the $5 and this app appeals to you, I'd say grab it.08-21-12 11:24 AMLike 0 - Bought this application yesterday.
I have a lot of mp4 music videos in video folder of playbook. But it doesn't recognise those videos. When I copied a few videos from video folder to music folder it instantly recognised them.
But I want to know how can we make it recognise my videos in video folder itself, as the same app does on any android device automatically?08-21-12 01:53 PMLike 0 - Bought this application yesterday.

Too bad it's not part of the actual music player, but it's honestly pretty good from what I've used of it so far!08-21-12 03:43 PMLike 0
- Looks like an Android port...

- None of the screen shots have the tell tale sign of the Android Back Arrow which can be a give away in some appworld pages.08-21-12 04:59 PMLike 0
- It seems to be built for multiple platforms, as it doesn't use the Android player. One thing for certain, it is the absolute best player i've used so far. With a pair of Etymotic ear buds, the PB, and this app you won't find any better sound. I absolutely love it and if you appreciate good sound as well as a well made smooth and easy music player, this one is the cat's a$$.
PS: Yea, I'm the "fifty stars" review guy. No, I don't have any stake or involvement in the developing company.Last edited by Beakman; 08-21-12 at 07:37 PM.

Honestly, it's only $5 and it's a NATIVE app with an EQ. If you wanted to play music from your PlayBook, and have an EQ, just buy the app!08-22-12 08:29 AMLike 0 - This is a native application.

The interface is pretty ordinary and the equalizer is not very effective.
In addition to that, the reader bug in multitasking. it's not worth $ 5.00!

Your overall description of this app's utility seems pretty much incredible, from my experience with it and with actual household and professional sound hardware.08-23-12 05:02 AMLike 0
- I bought it and it is a superb audio player...well worth the $5.00 simply for gapless playback.
What would send this player over the moon is if it was able to access files off of a local network.08-23-12 02:40 PMLike 0 -
To be honest though, all this app is lacking as far as I'm concerned is the integration of the PlayBook's media buttons. Even just play/pause would be cool - but volume to seek would be DY-NO-MITE!08-23-12 03:11 PMLike 0 - I was thinking about this, and then I'm obsessed with Subsonic so then I was dreaming of Subsonic integration.

Subsonic works great via the browser, but it's still the browser - and SonicAir is pretty clunky...08-23-12 06:15 PMLike 0
- Congratulations to Neutron!
A vast improvement on the native playbook music player, an insane amount of audio tweaks available. Well worth the $5.
I do find, however, the look of the native music player much easier on the eye, and much easier to use. Neutron has some frustrating elements, such as the music list. How do I get the folder list to be the default list? The list that shows on my playbook is of songs in no particular order. How can I get the music list to be in alpha order?
And as far as I can tell, the buttons on the top of the playbook for volume and ff, rw and pause only work for volume - the ff and rw do not work work for Neutron - or is there something in the settings to tweak this?08-23-12 06:31 PMLike 0 - I don't know if I'm doing something wrong, but no matter how many times I try to ENQUEUE an existing playlist, the queue remains empty.
Otherwise, I like the other features. However, like others, I'm not so sold on the interface - it seems things are laid out a bit odd. I'd prefer the standard "swipe down" to get into the settings and not have to hunt for them (the first time, anyway)...
UPDATE: Looking around Neutron's support forum, it seems they have some issues dealing with paths in M3U files. I suspect that they need to update things for M3U's sync'd with DM. I'll be adding a post over there if the site ever sends me my account activation e-mailLast edited by hytran; 08-24-12 at 11:05 AM.

I get the odd interruption when doing other things but this is without doubt the best music player...and I can even stream my planet rock
