Winamp does not support SD card on Samsung Galaxy S

[robs23]

Well, no one seems to care... I don't understand Winamp's approach... Maybe it's proper time to consider other players in Android Market...

[mremulator]

So what happens if you do this (see below image)? Does it ignore your request and place the files on the internal SD card instead?



[Edit -> DJ Egg]
This is USB mode, not WiFi.

The problem is with WiFi transfers/sync only.

works fine on my i9100, comes up as pictured above

[robs23]

I tried it for myself but apparently I have only that part device-->i9003(my phone)-->Transfers. There's no way to turn on these parts where would be "i9903 SD card" in my case.On the screen it is marked with little lama icon on the left - don't know what it means and where to enable it. So still, I don't have possibility to pick some other SD card as shown on Your picture... Besides, in some kind of device overall survey it shows I have about 1,52 GB total capacity, which is capacity of my very internal SD card....

SD card not seen on HTC Amaze

I just installed on my Amaze, and Winamp Sync over wifi only sees the phone's internal memory. Is there a fix or solution? I want my media stored on the SD card.

[Lommer]

@mremulator - yes, that works when the phone is plugged in via usb. However it is apparently impossible to get winamp to sync to the sdcard over wifi. That's incredibly frustrating when adding a simple user-changeable "sync path" (which they already have for usb sync) would completely solve the problem. This thread is 10 months old and the Dev's have been obviously aware of the issue since June? Pretty lame support given that the wifi sync is winamp's only real edge in this market...

New year and problem still exists. Add another Samsung phone to the list the Exhibit II (SGH-T679).

I get the same issue as Lommer with my Samsung Galaxy Note (a big S2 with a stylus, really). I can sync to the external SD via USB but not via Wifi.

I'd rather use Winamp primarily as I've been using it for years on the PC and I've bought Winamp Pro for Windows and Android already...

Samsung Galaxy S (Vibrant)

Count me in as having the same issue. I paid for the WinAmp Pro version, which I cannot apparently use. I didn't figure that out until after the sync, which took a lot longer than 15 minutes - so I missed the refund window.

I can sync via USB, but the wireless insists on putting the music on internal storage, which makes it a useless feature. PLEASE allow a setup option to point to a folder location for wireless sync.

Same problem on samsung s2

Wifi does saves only on internal memory.

Just in USB sync mode the external card apears!!

[Waldir]

pois é, sincroniza (pela usb) só que...

Só que toda a hora ele se embaralha com os arquivos. A cada sincronização ele não reconhece alguma porção dos arquivos que ele acabou de sincronizar.

[rasmith1959]

Too bad I find this out after the fact... Oh and add another problem to the mix, if your music files are on the SD card, Winamp doesn't update the play counts.

[backfiah]

Experiencing this on the Motorola Atrix 4G too - is there a way to fix this so it appears similarly to the Samsung Galaxy S?

Thanks

Bump for I have the same problem.
Can't be that hard to change the source code so that the user can decide which folders the wifi sync should use.

[robs23]

Changing source code is not that difficult. Winamp for android team just doesn't care for users... If You looked upon what they are doing, You would see they only try to make app as wide accessible as possible to the new users and pay NO ATTENTION to users they already have. 95% of changes in each version are changes towards ICS users, only absolute minority of changes are dedictated bug fixes or introducing a new function.

This topic has been here with ABSOLUTELY no responce from Winamp for almost year now. So fot those hoping something would finally change one day - stop deceiving Yourself....
