Missing track details
Missing track details
I just got a new phone and when I play songs in Neutron the details of the track are missing - name of song, artist etc.
Everything else is there, file type, artwork - what am I doing wrong?
Thanks.

Re: Missing track details
That depends on the source of the music. Where do you get your music from ? Stream ? Local files ?
For local files Neutron gets these data from so-called "tags". These are metadata which are typically present in most file types like flac, mp3 etc. What file types do you use ? mp3 ? Where did you get them ? If you buy from Google, Amazon, Apple then there are tags. If you rip a CD it depends on the ripper program. If need be use a tag editing program like mp3tag to add tags.
You can tell Neutron to get this information not from tags but from the filename. I never did this and I don't think that it will work really well as Neutron will have to extrapolate from the filename, but if you want to try it : do a long press on a track list (album, folder, etc) and tap "Setup"
then you can activate "Metadata from Filename" and/or "Filename"
Should it work tell us about it.
Re: Missing track details
I've tried what you've suggested but what's actually happening is this:
So I can't see what's being played!
NB: this is happening with all file types that I play and my music is being played from the phone's SD card.

Do a long press on the black space between the disk-symbol and the 3-dot-symbol. The file info will appear. What does it look like ?
Re: Missing track details
I suggest you check your files for the existence of tags with a tag editor.
Re: Missing track details
All the details are in there and in the notification bar too when my phone is locked.

Then I suggest you contact neutronmp@gmail.com

One further thing you could try, just in case it's the colours : Open Settings > User Interface > Appearance > Themes and try another theme. Perhaps your colours are black on black.
