Andre OK, thanks Andre. One day, perhaps Google / Samsung will present an update which doesn't break anything! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andrewilley Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Does PA build 900 improve this issue at all by the way? Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si6776 Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 I don't think I've had that update yet. Still on build 893, according to Settings > About. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxmp Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 @andrewilley there are no any changes to this, and the permission can’t be fixed by app. Access via SAF works well on Samsungs (disable Legacy File Access, reselect Music Folders). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this is a permission issue that can't be fixed by the app, then can I ask why it doesn't affect numerous other music player apps? Does PA require different permissions to other music players?

maxmp Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 @Si6776 Poweramp has two modes - legacy and SAF. I don't know of any other app supporting both. Poweramp allows switching between those modes. The bug related to the permission affects all apps using the legacy mode. The issue with delayed mounting affects all apps. Btw, all issues and solutions to them are described here: I you think you got another type of issue, please let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vekx92 Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 @maxmp thanks max, I'm gonna go check it out myself. But I'm assuming everything listed are the only fixes, and they're temporary fixes as well? Nothing that sticks after a reboot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I just got an update for my note 20 ultra here in the states, carrier locked and now magically Poweramp doesn't completely bonk out on me now. No sd card issues, no library mishaps.

klausmaus Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 I have build 911 and the issue persists. I had to install musicolet to be able to access my music on short notice without waiting for everything to be rescanned, although it's not nearly as good. how does musicolet instantly find my music, but for Poweramp it's a ten minute ordeal to figure out if and what music I have on my mounted SD card.

andrewilley Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 @klausmaus Poweramp needs to scan (including open/read) every file in your collection to get all of the metadata into its library, so it's very storage-intensive while it's doing that. Just turn the auto-scan feature off once a FULL Rescan has completed, then it shouldn't need to access the whole file system on each restart, just the current view (to fetch embedded album art).
