I'm sure you mean integration... But yeah, i feel you. It is handy to have that plug-in a swipe away on Manila 2D.

Ok, let me see if I can help.

I have each of my albums stored in a folder that only holds that album. So when I use the media browser to navigate to an album, I just load all the songs to my playlist.

Or, it doesn't really matter if you don't have your folders set up that way. You can just go to your music folder and load all your songs into your playlist. This would make a long list will all of your songs, sorta like navigating to "All Songs" in the iPod. Then you can use the scroll wheel (available in the skins in my op) to find songs in your library.

Or you can clear your playlist (doesn't delete the songs) then go through your folders selecting specific songs to add to your playlist.

It would be nice if it this app sorted songs by author or album (I'm sure that'll be coming in future releases) but honestly its not that bad, especially if you have your albums arranged in folders. Just add each fold (or you can just go to you music folder and all sub folders in one fell swoop) to your playlist (so that the album's songs are grouped together) then use the scroll wheel, or even the default skin, so jump through songs. Really not that hard to get use to. As fast as this app is, and as finger friendly as it is, I think it's worth it.

I've been messing around with this app for a couple weeks now, and I must say that this is my favorite mp3 player. Yeah, the bulk song playlist might take a bit of getting use to, but like goodgets said, it's just like navigating through all songs on the iPod. However, these are grouped by albums, which makes it even better. I think this is the most attractive and easiest to use mp3 player out there. Truly the most finger friendly. I love the scroll wheel feature, and don't know why it's not used in the default skin (it use to be in previous versions btw). Anyways, it can still be enabled using a different skin.

Great app and thanks.

small update, but an update (I guess) nonetheless

MAR 24 - Now you can download common equalizer presets and use them on Nitrogen (many thanks to sabesh). To install them, download the preset.eql file and copy it to Nitrogen's folder (under \Program Files\Nitrogen).

First time using this app, and I have a question::

Once I'm viewing the playlist or media browser how do I get back to the player?

You just tap the X button in the top right of the screen. This will take you back to the player from the browser of playlist.




If you are in the options menu, to get back to the player, just tap the left softkey "Exit" which only exits the menu not the actual player.

I hate to come across "dumb" but when I hit the X in the top right hand corner, it closes the whole program. I can exit options okay, just can't seem to get back to the player once I'm in the playlist or media browser without going back to the Today screen and re-selecting Nitrogen.

I was able to reproduce and solve this problem.

I think you might have you "X" button set to End Programs by tapping "X"
try changing it to tapping and holding "X"

this is under: Start> Settings> System> Task Manager> Button
(although this may be different depending on your rom)
